Striving
What’s the point? she asked. It could be a simple solution, he quipped. With much to do and little to gain, The effort remained unattainable rain. So onward she strove Observed by those who stood beyond the boundaries Doing much and yet ignoring them She left having been a bothersome chagrin. ...

Reaching Lights
In stillness I freeze, Seizing being Free, Staring into Trees. Neurons inside of me, Firing Constantly. Sending and Receiving, Little lights Reaching. Achieving heights, Beyond conceiving. Thoughts Breezing, Through its branches. Lights Grabbing Chances, According to feel. Dancing with Ideas, Becoming Real. Electric Lights, Guide the wheels. Pulling up Emotions, Going through the Motions. A shimmering Ocean, Glistening with Choices. Exlporing the wide Open, Lights are swimming, Shining, then Dimming, Zipping along, Growing strong. Carrying on and on, Coming to its end, New...

Sarabande on reaching the age of eighty-five

With Our Hands Reaching For The Shore
With our hands reaching for the shore, we are ships, Navigating waves of dreams and whispered hopes. Fingers like anchors, grasping at the slips, Of sandcastles built on tides of endless scopes. Our palms, the sails that catch the winds of fate, Stretching toward horizons where the sun ignites. In this ocean of longing, we patiently wait, For the gentle embrace of...

Head out of sand... suffering without breath... Begging to understand... If left alone... Future unknown... Help to bury... The demons i own......
