Make It True

Oh joy and prosperity
lovingly embrace
becoming the tasks
of etheric wonderment
meant to support life
with grace and loving kindness

Over and under through hard times
make it true for me and you
may I wake and know
and simply glow
and know where to go.

Don’t Quit

I am ready to roar
on the stillness of the night
on the brightest of days
and then purr
like the angels
found in kittens
so smitten
we dare not admit
that we don’t want to quit.

Ready to Roar

Mother you are not a part of me
leave me now.
I may be a part of you
but you need to let me go
and know you are
the evil that needs to be extinguished
with a love so powerful
that only God can help us now.

I am ready to roar.

Giggle and Roll

The love of my children
joyful and bright
knows no boundaries
day or night
through it all we tumble and fall
though we know not all
giggle and roll
swim and stroll
we travel along to Omaha
where we see and hear
but do not care
if the buffalo roam
and the antelope play.

Midnight Surf

The earth moves
like mountains
against the sea
with sun setting orange
in the indigo glee
forever bright and dark
we go not there but here we are
against the midnight surf
and the glistening moonlight
iridescent and lovely
like the tears of raindrops
on the windshield traveling on.

Continuum of All That Is

I delight in knowing we have found one another
you and I.
We bring each other up
in a true and loving light.

In the subtleness
of air moving through the leaves
and grass on a calm day.

The sunshine and moonshine
The warm ray of the sun
warming us all.

I delight in greeting companions
and how they respond in reflection.
How the flavor of tomato basil soup
reflects a dimension unknown.

I delight in seeing the world move along
in a continuum of all that is.

Dare

Feel as me forever more
but gently sleep in peace.
Live like the doves sing
Glow like the sun shines
Flow like the thoughts stream
And dare, dare to dream

We live, we die, we go bye bye
But first we see there is you and I
Rolling, moving, standing still
Sleeping, winking, knowing the will
Forever and ever and ever
No there is more to to you
To you and you and you here
And there on what where?

Question in the Sand

Cuts the soul from the earth
and the earth says, “Go free, fly.”

But where to fly and do we land
There is the question in the sand

Glimpses of joy bubble up
only to burst and flicker

Where there is no one but you and me
The trees hold us gently in the breeze
Sadness goes to and fro
And the swing is empty don’t you know

The simple wonders of the fly
landing here and swatted flat.
