Blue sky laced with clouds
Decorations of pink and white gauze
And, by the horizon
A crowd gathers
-yellow, orange, and red
Wait expectantly as,
Slowly,
The sun peeps its head over the horizon
To greet the day
Celebration
Blue sky laced with clouds Decorations of pink and white gauze And, by the horizon A crowd gathers -yellow, orange, and red Wait expectantly as, Slowly, The sun peeps its head over the horizon To greet the day

Awakening
Dawn breaks A flash of light on the dark horizon Greets the day We turn, muttering In our sleep From the light. Away from that which we feat the most And yet so badly need -an awakening Change
The world is new -perfect, eternal, and unchanging And yet, it is not Things change; Rain turns to river, Desert to plain. The ebb and flux Never end But in this moment There is a stillness within my soul That is forever DawnSong
Song rises Over mountains high. Sweet notes off to the horizon Greet the day. Dreaming – a note on subjective reality
We are dreaming? Is this world but a construct Of eternal minds To occupy one cosmic night? A descent into madness Perhaps Or something more. For what is reality -flexible, uncertain (The world is flat, after all) But one gigantic, vivid dream? Moving On
For once, in this moment, Everything makes sense And I am calm Negativity is behind me now And I can catch a glimpse Of the brighter future To come Beginning
The night is serene Calm, clear, Crystallized. The world feels right. And, smiling, I remember The darkness was here before light Our Place
It’s funny to think How little we matter In the cosmos One planet at the edge of One galaxy So small, In the vast contingency of space and time That is our world. And yet, We do matter. We are here, Born of “coincidence” We are a fragile world Made precious by the fate befallen us. Our Situation
Have you ever stopped to think About the sheer enormity Of our world? (And what is happening to us?) So many people Each with their own story Ever unfinished -and unheard But no less real than yours Everyone tries To fulfill some goal Pursue destiny Find hope So many people Rushing around Overlooking the obvious In their quest To find happiness A multitude of beings Endlessly searching To live out some fantasy And so the world goes An endless cacophony of dreams Fly Free
Bird in clear sky How I envy you -you look so free Your wings, the wind The earth below Your life appears so simple Clean And though I know This vision Is simply another dream Still you fly on, The earth is gone Your world Just you and your wings -free |
I have placed the poems I have written into a blog format, for lack of anything better. You can sort them by category, or by date (anything older than May 2011 is under May 2011 because that's when I did the transfer). If you want to view all the poems, I recommend downloading the word document below.
