Best Wausau Poems
If the spirit moves me I will speak
I will share words
that no-one wants to hear
I will speak them
I will speak them loud and clear
If the spirit moves me
If the spirit moves me I will see
I will see Beauty
that no-one else can see
I will see it far and near
around me and in all things
If the spirit moves me
If the spirit moves me I will hear
I will hear things
no-one else can hear
I will hear the universe
speaking to me and I will hear
If the spirit moves me
If the spirit moves me
I will feel
I will feel the pain of others
I will feel their happiness too
I will be able to empathize
If the spirit moves me
If the spirit moves me
I will taste joy and laughter
I will live my life in peace
I will find love
I will live on in the ever-after
If the spirit moves me

I have traveled
my whole life
to be this far from you
Moments
have passed by
like the miles
that lie between us
The wind
has carried you
my nameless name

wind dances with great pines
long needles brush together
low musical hush.

frozen river sleeps
man's desires go unbidden
winter turns her face

The Girl with the Golden Eye
often looks upward to the sky
She likes to watch the moon
She dances to a song of her own choosing.
She peers into dark shadows
She basks in the early morning sun
She dives deep into the depths
Where she knows the deepest currents run.
She lives her life for all the seasons
She loves both the present and the past
She holds on to all life's moments
She treasures every golden breath.
She knows life is but an inhale, an exhale,
A single blinking of an eye
Brief as the flickering of a candle
Fast as the clouds chasing the sky.

Frozen and left for dead
I can speak no words
nor shake my head
only the sky
moves on
above me

spotted division
birch trees live in black and white
bark reveals secrets

hearing the songs of lightning

mist hangs her body
close to his softness blending
early morning chill
separated no longer
hardness enters disappears

late Autumn waits quietly
bids her leaves goodbye

wind massages mountains
sends shock waves to inner core
valley grows wider

far to near, approaching fast
never an escape
