Premium Member In the Middle of the Universe, I Stand
In the middle of the universe, I stand 
My mind seeking comprehension 
The mysteries of life tantalize my tenacious grip on wisdom
I stand
Observing omnipotent organization
The universe expands as I stand in wonder
What does it all mean?
Infinite answers press against my finite mind
Clamoring for recognition
I stand:...

Premium Member In the Middle of My Own Small World I Stand - Title Revision
In the middle of my own small world I stand,
Both feet planted firmly on the land.
Gold is the sun in the sky.
Oh, that I could fly!
Then you see -
I
Would be free!
Earth-bound, though, I sigh.
I'll remain so till I die.
Knowing that out there is something grand,
In...

Premium Member In the Middle of the Universe I Stand 3feb15
In the middle of the universe I stand,
But that universe is only mine.
I’ve heard you’re in the middle of yours,
And I think that’s just fine.

Should our universes overlap,
I hope we’ll get along.
Bound to be issues now and then,
What is right and what is wrong?

We’ll have...

Premium Member In the Middle of the Night
Have you ever been so lucky as to have seen
in the middle of the night
a kaleidoscope of butterflies? How beautiful the sight
of violets, blues, black on white 
and the royal monarch’s hues.

If you should be so fortunate,
please go outside and let yourself believe
there’s music in...

Premium Member Middle of the Road
Sometimes I wish
I could be more
middle-of-the-road;
with my politics
with my music
with my writing--
but, then, the question arises,
which neighborhood?
And would that road
be, public or private?

For all centers
are not in the same direction;
none of them a constant--
not even the dead 
left to rest,
recycled into
God knows what?...

In the Middle of the Night
I woke up in the middle of the night with tears running from my eyes. I woke up in the middle of the night because my spirit cries
It is not the tear that falls when I am lonely; it is not the tear that fall...

At the Middle of the Night
AT THE MIDLE OF A NIGHT
I wake up to unusual ringtone
I rise to pick up my phone
One eyed half open,
I stretch out my hands down my pillow
I clean my throat ready to say “hallo”

 My right thumb on the screen to slide the green icon
But….there...

Opposite Views From the Middle of the Universe
In the middle of the universe, I stand
Wanting for everyone to be alive 
When fear is conquered, everyone will be alive
The truth is revealed when bravery is set free
Medicine cures illness, everyone will be alive
Create a cool wave of healing to save
Able to fight terror,...

Premium Member In the Middle of the Universe I Stand
In the middle of the universe, I stand
To choose between the darkness and the light
The world around me I must understand
To seek spiritual knowledge or delight
As I am a minuscule current born
To flow in life's stream to the final end
Another soul to fill God's harvest...

In the Middle of the Universe, I Stand
In the middle of the universe, I stand
How can I complain when everything is grand?
In a vast space so immensely deep,
A watch for unwelcome hooligans I keep.

In the middle of the universe, I am
So spacious, so vast, no traffic jam;
Yet as the silent void within...

In the early 70’s my husband and our first baby, Angela, moved to Muscatine, Iowa, in the middle of the night, in the summer time.  At 7:00 a.m. the next door neighbor rang the doorbell; she was astounded that the living room was totally...

He's a seasoned outdoorsman; a lover
               and explorer of nature who frequently
   goes camping, on occasion, hunting; even fly-fishing.

In the Middle of the Universe, I Stand
1

In the middle of the universe, I stand-
A mere earthling by stomping on sand 
raise hands to the gods forever at odds
How to call square at the end.

I am in  the center of all
Awe-struck wide eyes at the ball
I am six feet tall
Can I...

In the Middle of the Darkest Night
The moon was on leave, 
The stars were no more 
It was not, but in the mid of the darkest night 

It was not rain, but the tears of the sleepless eyes 
That washed away the beauty of the beautiful sky 

It was, but a...
