(2014)
On the brink of leaving, To go beyond These borders And say good-bye, To all you know,
Last night I dreamt that I floated above the clouds, above the earth and my heart
The white snow, thin Like sand, over The fields, blowing Across the road. My car rambles
Geese are honking As they fly Across an orange colored Sky. My spirit soars
Thoughts flicker like twinkling lights, ride them across the sky. Embrace your dream,
Not sure what to write while the world is on the brink of another war. While others face
Rolling painted deserts of the west. Shrub bushes dot sloping hillsides. Relentless sun heats up
Summer is near it’s end, I regret not visiting my childhood home, near the gulf, where the sunset
Life is a day dream So they say, With every beat Of my heart, The gate to love
Tonight, the wind whistles as it rushes through the atmospher… Winter’s bare limbs of swaying trees, dance in the shadows.
Life is like a dream A star studded sky A blink of an eye Oh, how life slips by. Life is like a song
Red bird perched on a tree limb laced with snow. So happy to see him and the joy he brings.
The white snow lay gently on the ground in a swirl pattern. The sky, a slab of smooth grey stone.
There is my shadow, A dark outline of this body And yet, it also holds, The hidden imperfections Of my existence.
The flesh withers as we age But our inner spirit Remains the same. And when the body dies The spirit breaks free
