(2015)
Time is going by fast, Trying not to live in the past, To keep priorities straight And not falter at the gate. To join the universal goal
On this New Year’s Eve Direction lost Drifting like blowing snow To and fro. A freeze comes
An owl hoots on this cool, crisp Spring night. A sound that’s distant yet echos
Remember the night we took your mother’s car and drove over the skyway bridge? The moon was a bright light to show the way.
In the dead Of Winter, I long for Spring. In the rains Of Spring,
Misty fog floating through bare trees. Cold waves of wind coarse through the woods whistling as they go
The hummingbirds are buzzing As well as the bees. The Orioles land gingerly On top of the feeder. Cautiously they move down
Sometimes wonder about a star, way afar. How life might be in outer space,
Many thoughts in the mind, Some productive, some not. They glow like fires, Created by needs and
One lit candle burns brightly As I make a wish upon it’s Golden aura, that Humankind May learn to caress the earth As the wind does a field of flower…
Last night I dreamt that I floated above the clouds, above the earth and my heart
Driving down the road, The song, “Let It Be” Came on the radio. Taking me back to Various scenarios.
There is my shadow, A dark outline of this body And yet, it also holds, The hidden imperfections Of my existence.
Great scientific minds Working for cures Of terminal diseases, The clock ticks... What is the cure
Beneath the bustling, hustling mind, deep inside, there is an oasis of calm.
