Not sure, not sure why
the world turns the way it does
clouds stream across the sky
birds sing and cows call.
I stand in the midst of it all
and
I’m not sure
not sure why.

Not Sure, Not Sure Why

No Matter What
August 2, 2024
No matter what
The earth turns
bringing light and warmth
on a summer day.
No matter what
Filling oceans up
creating life in the water
dirt and the sky.
No matter what
She moves
speaking words of love
heard by those quiet enough
No matter what.

On The Other Side, Sliding Down
July 26, 2024
On the other side, sliding down
The slippery slope
Laughing, crying I turn round
Hope the way is clear
The path won’t steer me wrong
On the other side, sliding down.

Morning Comes
June 28, 2024
Morning comes
Then it goes
No one knows where
Where it unfolds.
Melting into day
Hiding thru the night
Breaking once again
In the glorious morning light

When I Hear The Sound Of Your Voice
June 21, 2024
When I hear
The sound of your voice
Life becomes so dear
Clouds part, rains stop
And wrens fly near.
No one speaks a word
No one need say
The feelings felt
To convey how
The world is ours
And
We have all the love
We need today.

Holding On And Very Still
June 14, 2024
Holding on and very still
breathe light
heart softly beating
and
I will be careful
to
leave the earth
a better place
because
of
me
I promise, I will.

All Across The Land
June 7, 2024
The sun rises
Shines
All across the land
The ground wakes
Sighing a gentle sigh
All across the land
Birds fly, coyotes call
Leaves sway in unison
All across the land
Contentment is ours
To enjoy
All across the land.

I Know You Haven’t Seen Me
May 31, 2024
I know you haven’t seen me
Nor anything I do
Know
I’m just a back screen
Meaning nothing
Nothing
Ever to you.
I know I won’t be front and centre
In anything you do
But then I don’t care
You see
For you’re nothing to me
Or is anything
You ever do.

In The Distant Past
May 24, 2024
I have lived before
I have lived a life
In the distant past
Good or bad I had
A life before memories
Faded
In the distant past
They didn’t last
As new ones evolved
Different but built on
That life lived
In the distant past.

I Am Here
May 17, 2024
I am here and you can’t see me
I’m hiding
Hiding in normalcy
