Fireflies sparkle in the sky
Flashing bright
Then fading, disappearing in a humid night.
Fireflies moving in a most erratic way
Flying high
Sparkling bright in a summer nightime flight.

Fireflies Sparkle In The Sky

As You Move Forward Into Eternity
June 16, 2014
As you move forward into eternity
Stop and look around
See majesty.
See forests, lawns, parks and lakes
See people, fawns and a most interesting place
Nothings ever dull if you but care to trace
The movement of the world
For it’s such a wondrous place.
Please move thru this time in space
With a light and tender thread
So they’ll only know you’ve been here
By all the good they felt
From your kind and gentle tread.

Let Me Sit Under The Maple Tree
June 11, 2014
Let me sit under the maple tree.
Let my soul live far into eternity
Let me see my heart soar in ecstasy
Let me be one of the ones
Who carry the message to all that need.
Under the maple tree
Let me be me.

Cautious, Calculating Moving Forward
June 10, 2014
Cautious, calculating moving forward
In the realm of episodes unknown.
Breathtaking, wondrous love
Coming to the ones to be known.
No more heartache of all those parting
Breaking vows not yet known.
Can’t be sorry only this alone will create
A world full of beauty, this is known.

I Saw Two Hummingbirds
June 5, 2014
I saw two hummingbirds
At my feeder today.
They didn’t fight
They hovered and ate
Then, just flew away.

Silence

Silence Can Be Peace and Tranquility.
Silence,

That is what it is to me.

Ralph Rides With Me
May 27, 2014
Ralph rides with me
Just as long as he needs to see
I know everything and how it goes.
My jeep was dying piece by piece
When a friend said
“I know of a car that just might do”
Off we went to check it out
Ralph’s red van
Left as if he’d just stepped out.
I said yes to this red van
The one that belonged to
Ralph the Man.
I feel his presence beside of me
Cause you see, for a little while
Ralph rides with me.

Still Wondering
May 26, 2014Still Wondering
On this another day
As I haven’t found a way
To conquer all my fears
Or still the voices of distain
And sacrifice all the blame.
Still wondering
What this day has been
And wondering what tomorrow
Will unfold to bring, wondering
Still wondering.

So Much Could Happen
May 22, 2014
So much
Could happen
If I knew the reason
Why I came here
What I need to see
Need to be.
See far meadows
See trees blowing
In the breeze.
Are these
These what I need
Need to see?
Breathe in salt air
As it crashes
Sinks back
To emerald depths
In a deep blue sea.
Will I reach these?
These I need to see
Need to hear
Those I do so need?
Then a sigh
I hear, I hear
My life is right
I’m where I need
Right where I need
To be.
