A poem for fun! 9/20/20
Old friends walking on the beach, the waves bring in, memories, of carefree days;
Walking down the dirt path, Sounds drift on the air, Birds chirping, leaves Rustling, dogs barking. Interconnection of life
Red sun in the morning rolling up the side of earth. The sky turned pink, as a ball of fire showed it’s strength,
Driving through the small towns of America, children of all colors playing in the streets, some with tattered clothes
The red cardinal high in a tree, caught my attention with his melodious chirp on my daily walk.
What inspires me... Hummingbirds buzzing as they land, on nearby flowers. Their amazing wings
Not sure where we are headed, Could be a long ride, Keep your heart steady, Open wide your eyes. There is something to learn
Inhale, the arms float up, Exhale, the arms float down, Namaste, at the heart. Inhale, the body bends, Hands at top of mat,
Half a world away, I walk a narrow, stone path. In the rice fields, the Balinese people
I remember your smile, your laugh,… you gave so freely. It’s hard that you are gone. I sigh and walk along the bay.
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
The misty, night rain, Soaking bare trees, Bringing nourishment. I stand at the window, A steady beat echoes
An owl hoots on this cool, crisp Spring night. A sound that’s distant yet echos
Just a small part of me wants strife to go away, to return to a kinder time. Am I just losing courage? Life is draining me,
What is truth? It’s a changing sky, One day clear, The next, cloudy, Holding the blue and grey,
