It’s a billion stars moving and co… While we sleep. It’s one miracle after another and… We do not take the leap. It’s the great heave of nature

Sitting on the lake shore, Which made my heart soar, The water rippled at times, Swirled into beautiful lines, Clouds reflected in it’s mirror,

Come with me To the mountain top, Where the crest touches The sky And the air so pure,

Sometimes wonder about a star, way afar. How life might be in outer space,

Photos are all I have At times, Of smiling familiar faces, My family spread out. I would travel often

Dark bulk of a single bird, With red puffed up chest, As winter’s breeze sways his perch…

What inspires me... Hummingbirds buzzing as they land, on nearby flowers. Their amazing wings

Walking on the edge, Between awareness and sleep. Sometimes... I’m in the moment, I feel my body,

Silver sliver of the moon With the bright star of Venus Trailing behind. Moonbeams casting light On the waves,

In the rustle of leaves the wind plays a tune, the change of season is on the horizon. It asks permission

This is the America I know: A sea of white, black, red, yellow And brown faces, Strong minds and voices Raised to the sun,

Pretend there is no tomorrow becau… there might not be. Live like there is only this momen… that is the truth. Nothing is solid but whispery,

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

Misty fog floating through bare trees. Cold waves of wind coarse through the woods whistling as they go

In the noble purpose of my life, In the clear and quiet chamber Of my soul, In the open and warm cave Of my heart,
