(2015)
Firefly shine your light, Brighten my life, Lead the way, through The meadows, in my mind. Firefly, float so high,
It’s a billion stars moving and co… While we sleep. It’s one miracle after another and… We do not take the leap. It’s the great heave of nature
What is truth? It’s a changing sky, One day clear, The next, cloudy, Holding the blue and grey,
Life is a day dream So they say, With every beat Of my heart, The gate to love
Leaves falling, Another season Decorating the earth. One red leaf In my path,
Life is but a dream, our fantasies, spill, like liquid tears that pool and vaporize into the air.
The wind went through me, it carried the yellow, orange and red leaves lightly on the air. Another change is coming,
As we shared stories, The warm hum of voices heard, A cup of love spilled.
The white snow lay gently on the ground in a swirl pattern. The sky, a slab of smooth grey stone.
Thoughts flicker like twinkling lights, ride them across the sky. Embrace your dream,
The dance of fear, Of not being enough, Stops and starts. The unknown, an Uncharted sea,
Looking at my journal’s Blank page While geese fly by and honk A greeting. The red cardinals
The chimes outside the pottery studio ring like a temple bell, calling the faithful to honor,
I lay still While my loved one, Sleeps. His warm hand In my hand,
Perhaps it is the mind separating things into this and that. Perhaps it is the mind with it’s preferences
