Indelible marks


Principally trust
Erodes when those in power
Relish their hold over
Faithful souls; they are the
Infidels, those mean-spirited cowards,
Deceiving the unknowing
Youth of the world.

Endless potential


Proposing both
Objective and
Subjective perspectives
Sustains the
Idea that anything could
Be.
Inapposite
Lessons might
Idle discussions, but where
They might lead could be
Interesting indeed. The
Essence of learning engages
Such yearning.

Who? When? Where?
Or what? How? Why? I’ll
Never stop asking. No, not I. My
Dearest friend Curiosity will
Ever question and wander with me
Regardless of what the answers might be.

Twined about
Her expressive soul is that
Rallying strand of
Equanimity. Clothed in
A robe of sea and sand, she
Dreams of mindful community.

Happy Birthday, Shelly S.

Home again


Remembering now, due to
Evocative cues in the
Dank cellar, the kitchen,
Or upstairs rooms, the
Little mutt skittered
Ebulliently about,
Never more glad
To be back in that house.

A united change in attitude, for the
Mending of an injured soul.

Off some flee to warmer locations
Where sun and sand bring much relief.

The three-toed sloth's cry


Ambling along, munching cecropia leaves,
Its sharp three-toed paws keep it safe in the trees.

A slippery thing, time


Today is only
One before the next
Morning comes, that new day
Of no
Regrets, no mistakes, where
Remembering whispers
On the
Wind of yesterday.

Moral dilemma?


Jurors all are we
Understandably when
Deciding
Good or bad, but where is
Empathy?
Maybe we could
Engage in a more
Neutral view or
That of walking in
Another’s shoes. What’s there to
Lose?

Of harvested grain? They stand
Out in the field like
Knights and their dames.

Helping the
Uncounted
Masses of
Alienated souls may come
Naturally for those still
In touch with
Their
Youthful, untainted sense of good will.

Thank you, Zoe W.

A story to share of loving and care –
Yes, even the sting-stang-stungs.

A lava of higher viscosity.

Foremost in a year of days,
It’s highly celebrated;
Revelry begins the craze, then very
Soon the sun appears to
The dismay of the – h’ck – inebriated.
