(2013)
Red sun in the morning rolling up the side of earth. The sky turned pink, as a ball of fire showed it’s strength,
In the bright moments My mind is a flame, Melting obstacles, Gaining gifts of wisdom. In the dark moments
On this New Year’s Eve Direction lost Drifting like blowing snow To and fro. A freeze comes
Birds flying here and there, landing on branches to chirp and bare, their heart. A private club among the trees with their own private code.
Misty fog floating through bare trees. Cold waves of wind coarse through the woods whistling as they go
Soft gray clouds pass slowly by, Soon they will release a gift of r… Trees are shedding their leaves As they turn red, orange and yello… Signaling the squirrels to collect…
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…
When I grow really old I may have to do yoga Full time, to get out The aches and creaks. When I grow really old
Every hour we are someone Different, Every day something new Learned, Death is just another
Old friends walking on the beach, the waves bring in, memories, of carefree days;
Not sure where we are headed, Could be a long ride, Keep your heart steady, Open wide your eyes. There is something to learn
You may not know what you’ll do next: Hit the open road With your thumb stuck out. Give up all you own
Photos are all I have At times, Of smiling familiar faces, My family spread out. I would travel often
Driving down the road, The song, “Let It Be” Came on the radio. Taking me back to Various scenarios.
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.
