(2014)
On a walk one day, all the sounds seemed interconnected. Sounds of life, in harmony with each other.
Lately, a sadness pervades, I mourn for youth, perhaps passion of younger days. With age, some of that passion
Cool breeze rustles through the tr… drifting into my open door and leads me to the window to see leaves falling with abandon. Highlights of red and gold lace
Yellow finches Line the bird feeder Against Spring’ s canopy Of green and purple tapestry. Back and forth they go
Inhale, the arms float up, Exhale, the arms float down, Namaste, at the heart. Inhale, the body bends, Hands at top of mat,
Misty fog floating through bare trees. Cold waves of wind coarse through the woods whistling as they go
Life is but a dream, our fantasies, spill, like liquid tears that pool and vaporize into the air.
Not sure where we are headed, Could be a long ride, Keep your heart steady, Open wide your eyes. There is something to learn
Today, I wish the pain to go, the fatigue that I fight so. This process of aging is unkind and yet, the law of nature is a fast lane of change.
Life is a day dream So they say, With every beat Of my heart, The gate to love
An owl hoots on this cool, crisp Spring night. A sound that’s distant yet echos
It is what it is Despite my wishes for it, Otherwise. You are who you are Despite my expectations,
When I sit And watch The in and out Of breath, Thoughts no longer
I heard past generations In my son’s voice, I saw his life fly Into another dimension, A place, I can only imagine.
Old friends walking on the beach, the waves bring in, memories, of carefree days;
Walking on the beach of long ago, the constant roll of the gulf, it’s sound, like a lullaby.
