Everlasting Fountains

As I walk through the land my Ancestors lay.
Blood fills the oceans, have we lead ourselves astray.
Seamlessly existing in an orchestrated plan. 
Screaming false hope to countless souls responding ‘yes we can’.
All my concerns point to the future.
People’s attention being condensed, we’re living in torture.
Every aspect of what’s known has been taken.
Mind of a free man, will never stop until the agenda is shaken.
You think you see things, and yet your vision is impaired.
Get your eyes out of the tunnel scope.
Its okay you don’t have to be scared.
When you’ve accomplished, your soul fills with certainty.
That your influence is there, along with all the hope in the world you see.
Constant struggles, we bleed for our fellow brothers and sisters. 
I could be walking with potentials, let me wash away my blisters. 
Strength in numbers and we can be as tall as mountains. 
Let’s all walk as one, towards the everlasting fountains.

Cities without water fountains and? 2

In California today, 2025, city managers, attorneys, engineering 
Work in an infrastructure of control without water fountains.
Micromanaged district supervision of States of legislature 
Troughing below the poverty lines as entrance and exit serve the wills inheriting the labor of "housing" "something" without competing.

Prediction of 24 hours, 7 days, is enough hearing of you 
Needn't be hear nor better with time in a second arrived

Lots full of practice and routine appearance

Essayists and poets marching 
Into town halls to legislate 
Creating labora frame
Georgia 5th had no time to talk

COVID kills fountains

water fountain ghosts
dusty choked by COVID ropes
free water untouched

Stream and Fountains

Run down the mountain
The night did compile
The animals ran wild
Walked above the snow
Now I know
You sensed our energy
As you listened quietly
Water below
Left our echo
My Father transistor
Heard you whisper
I shall take you to many places
Where you will see our hidden faces
The water bear did play
He even blessed our day
Touched many trees
Without many leaves
Ready to bloom
As the bride greets her groom
Sounds of peace
The Heavens released
A blessing so pure
Among the wisdom endured
Spiritually divine
Seen the signs
Felt the Lord chill
As we ascended the hill

Drops of Rain

Drops of rain are so liquid allies
that embrace each other in a trance, in fever
come together to create fountains and river

Where Fountains Bubble

                     A bubbling fountain
                     Sprightly Tortie kitten drinks
                     Relishing this Spring

Water Fountains

Water Fountains dancing to all kinds of music
And lights
Transform
The night
As they perform.

Did this conform with my idea of norm?
It was plain to my brain
That this was a unique form
In which to entertain.

Water fell back in to a water tight terrain
To go through the tubes to escape
Like colorful water sprites after a rain
With no shape to have people's
Mouths gape.

The Water Fountains

People are drawn to the water fountains
Water fountains are all different
They are round, square,oval short
 Yet a crowd always gathers here
Someone holds a coin-makes a wish
Then throws the coins-into the fountain
Hoping that their wishes made comes true
The fountain filled with coins 
No one knows which coin the fountain 
will bless
Only the fountain knows which coin 
will be blessed
So people hope that it will be theirs.
Yet only one coin is blessed.

Kiddos In Old Town

Kiddos In Old Town

I rode my bike through 
Old Town today
it used to be a few blocks 
of bars and low rent restaurants
with Friday and Saturday night
live music pouring through
open doors and windows
back when I first moved to town
in the early seventies

now it’s a pedestrian mall
filled with moms and their
little kiddos out for
some sun and fun without
hassle or travel… the kids
playing in fountains that spurt 
up water from random spouts
four feet into the air showering
them with cool streams in the summer sun

as I sat happily watching the kids
a woman around my age walked
into the fountain area with her 
thirteen-year-old beagle unleashed
he obviously knew the drill
jumping between spouts as each
shot a stream of water into the air
getting soaked and loving it
the kids went bonkers watching him
and moms loved the show 

I saw brightly colored joy in 
little faces and mother’s hearts
the warm summer sun keeping
watch over kiddos having a blast
and the pure fun in the beagles being
set a grin on my lips and poetry
running through my mind
I thanked the woman and her wet pup
for being my muse of the day
jumped on my bike and split…

Temporary Fountains

Temporary fountains, 
of the bleak mountain
show up only,
when it rains.

Watch Your Step

Meet  me by the fountains brink
bring your quill and maybe ink
for you are all ones that blink
20, 40 count them all
but watch your step 
as you may fall.

Pretty Fountains

She walked the miles through deserts to mountains
Carrying her heavy pain, all the while
Sometimes releasing, like pretty fountains

Other times, it was difficult to smile
It was dry, it was hard, but she endured
Carrying her heavy pain, all the while

She had determination, in the ground it spurred
With every step she conquered, good was found
It was dry, it was hard, but she endured

Sometimes, she fell with weakness to the ground
Deep pain searing through her veins and her mind
With every step she conquered, good was found

She sought every mountaintop she could find
To stand in the beauty of solitude
Deep pain searing through her veins and her mind

She listened to songs of the doves that cooed
She walked the miles through deserts and mountains
She learned from a positive attitude
Sometimes, releasing like pretty fountains

Deepest Fountains

I

I've felt phases of graces,
seen faces and been to places,
and the twinkle amongst stars-
but my soul was never fulfilled 
until I found that soul.


II

I've drank from the deepest fountains,
climbed the highest mountains,
felt the mercy of God's grace,
and yet, my love...
you permeate my senses
beyond control.

Fountains of Knowledge - the Hotan Style

~Fountains Of Knowledge~
(Hotan)


Books are just awesome
They make my heart so happy
Help learn things I want to know
Much to read
Many things to learn
I'm excited
I want to know more
Many help me grow each day
Books bring inside many joys and dreams.

~Author's Notes:

The "Hotan" is a Japanese form, being a combination of a Haiku (hokku = ho) and a Tanka (tan).

A Mirage of Pools and Fountains

Carnage of unrelenting desert sun
Sun bakes, flora are impermeable
Impermeable unlike those who run
Run to hydration, inevitable

Inevitable crystallization
Crystallization of sweat on their brows
Brows no longer yield precipitation
Precipitation in their prayers, and how

How requisite drink does invigorate
Invigorate the flagging runner’s mind
Mind looks for something to alleviate
Alleviate sun, rising from behind

Behind them, misery, ahead, mirage
Mirage of pools and fountains, soul carnage.
