Not sure where we are headed, Could be a long ride, Keep your heart steady, Open wide your eyes. There is something to learn

On this New Year’s Eve Direction lost Drifting like blowing snow To and fro. A freeze comes

One year since I traveled to paradise. One year since I laughed and danced with friends. One year since I watched

In the still night In the silence, My soul begs, My mind to rest. It’s story told

I remember your smile, your laugh,… you gave so freely. It’s hard that you are gone. I sigh and walk along the bay.

Last night I dreamt that I floated above the clouds, above the earth and my heart

White heron skidding the blue, grey water, of the bay. How free and easy you make it look,

The white snow, thin Like sand, over The fields, blowing Across the road. My car rambles

Old friends walking on the beach, the waves bring in, memories, of carefree days;

The red cardinal high in a tree, caught my attention with his melodious chirp on my daily walk.

Cold spring rain chills my body And yet, the birds fly in unison As if, it is a sunny day. The white tail deer Bounce through the ravine

The flesh withers as we age But our inner spirit Remains the same. And when the body dies The spirit breaks free

My heart is a good heart, It beats strongly And works hard, To keep me alive. My mind is a good mind,

Brown hawk with spotted tail, soaring on the wind, balancing like a sail. Your piercing cry

The dance of fear, Of not being enough, Stops and starts. The unknown, an Uncharted sea,
