(2013)
Summertime gives A chance to grow Under the sun, Travel, to new places And have some fun.
To open and risk hurt... Or stay closed but Never really live. Pain can reveal... A connection to
Not sure where we are headed, Could be a long ride, Keep your heart steady, Open wide your eyes. There is something to learn
Driving down the road, The song, “Let It Be” Came on the radio. Taking me back to Various scenarios.
Driving through the small towns of America, children of all colors playing in the streets, some with tattered clothes
I remember your smile, your laugh,… you gave so freely. It’s hard that you are gone. I sigh and walk along the bay.
Great scientific minds Working for cures Of terminal diseases, The clock ticks... What is the cure
In the still night In the silence, My soul begs, My mind to rest. It’s story told
When I sit And watch The in and out Of breath, Thoughts no longer
In the rustle of leaves the wind plays a tune, the change of season is on the horizon. It asks permission
What inspires me... Hummingbirds buzzing as they land, on nearby flowers. Their amazing wings
The many places I have been And countless faces I have seen, The many tales to be told, Into the universe, they unfold. It’s all a passing show,
Leaves falling, Another season Decorating the earth. One red leaf In my path,
Squirrels with bushy orange tails leap about the deck. Crickets hum, confused that it’s not dark yet. The caw of a blue jay
You may not know what you’ll do next: Hit the open road With your thumb stuck out. Give up all you own
