#I_should_have_said_all
when I decided to walk out of your life, not that I had any option but situation beyond levels of my reach and explanation, I so wished to made sense of my leaving, at least say enough to fill all the questions that put holes to your heart and soul, at least left you with something to hold on to, just to fill my absence, to your life
I should have said all, at least admitted to the tearing wound inside me, the love, which we conceived the day we met, possibilities and hopes our first kiss assured me and thoughts and dreams that filled my mind whenever I thought of you, a future I told you about, though it sounded wishful and of fantasy
the truth was that, you mattered more than you could ever imagined, yet circumstances took decisions, out of our control and that remains unquestioned, though painful, I could never learned to survive without the cord my heart sourced its life from, which was you, never imagined nor dreamed of your absence to this world without you by my side
I lost a life tht lived inside me,the day I called quits, a life which gave my soul a stand, my hopes and dreams that came to life because that life in me, I too ceased to live, though none realized that, I died joy you love, a smile that connected to my heart and soul, which your presence in me carried, this world felt cold and empty, dangerous and scary, all you changed with your presence, I wish to have said all

The children have grown and flown, our nest is empty
The family sits together no longer on the dining table
Walls resound no longer with their chirpy chitter chatter
Yet a strange emptiness radiating peace fills our heart
Accepting with gratitude the natural transition of life
Recognising we would never choose to have it otherwise
Living in the moment, in a mode of embrace and release
We have been blessed with the wisdom of the ancients
That the children born to us are on their own soul journey
Momentarily entwined with us in linear time upon earth
Just as we were too with our parents who are no more
With all that we can hold on to being memory we retain
Thus not with regret but in a mood celebratory, we applaud
Our children’s growth as they embark upon their life quest
For we all are in truth the children of God who so nurtures
Guiding us gently and enabling us as of prior soul agreement
That plays out as destiny while we slowly refine our responses
Thus we rest now in peaceful contentment in our empty nest
As our children’s priorities shift we hear not from them often
Yet vibrationally we always remain ever connected with them
The elixir of love transcends limitations of space and time
A love that is unclinging, giving, unconditional and acceptant
Our lives too go on as ordained in our vibrant sunset years
So beauteous is the magic of life playing out like a lucid dream
We are truly blessed!

We woke up early to a 50 degrees morning….six o’clock to be specific
In order to make the 70 mile trip to Rialto Beach on the coast of the Pacific.
It was a two hour circuitous trip …since we had to be there by nine
there was no time to linger about
because Rialto Beach is only open when the tide is out.
The beach is known for it’s sea stacks…tiny islands standing free
once connected headlands…that long ago have been eroded by the sea.
It is also known for its tree graveyard…once tall, majestic now fallen trees
that storms have deposited on this coast
made bare and bleached by ocean winds…
against the dark sand…they now lie there white as ghosts.
Finally this beach is also known…once the tide recedes
for something very cool…
the starfish, anemones and snails that inhabit its tidal pools.
Walking in the deep and darkened sand…for two old people was a chore
but on we trudged because we were seeing things we’d never seen before.
People watching us struggling to walk up the beach…
might have cried out wistfully
“Look at those two old people…walking tentatively by the sea.”
But something wonderful happened to to us
every time we sat atop a ghostly looking tree
every time we saw a sea stack, a starfish or anemone.
With each new adventure that day we experienced along the shore…
we felt a little younger than we did a moment before…
Which meant people watching us walk back down the beach…
might have cried out delightedly…
“Look at how young those two old people look…walking by the sea.”
As the piano temp started to play
It was low note to high note
Suddenly Dramatic upward beat
Arrived at Uptown Harlem, NY
Narration began to follow
Music being the thing in the uptown swing
Jazz came alive the night trance blues
The Night being no time to sleep, but dancing enjoyment wise
Piano keys reset
Upward and outward effect
Club Goers melody
Shout to the Piano Man, “DO YOUR THING”
Hit those ivories
Let the rhythm speak
Tone of delight
Lit up Harlem night
Foot tapping and butt bumming
Jazz the way it was meant to be
Take the A Train as only Duke Ellington put smooth
Vibe high
Piano upswing
Lighted steps of Dance, Swing, Come Alive
The Piano made it possible in music simplicity
Hear and obey in action
Men and women dance, “IF YOU AN IT COME AND GET IT”
Every piano note with a story of its own
Straight out full blown
Booze added flavor to Jazz
Drink up
Night was young and Club Goers all among
Come up to Harlem, NY
Downtown connected with uptown
No one does it better but Harlem
It was an enterprise
Business Realize
Piano motto, “DANCE AWAY YOUR WORRIES”
Harlem sling
Oh that piano
Let the music play
Harlem in
Musical night meant to never end.
I found your note where you said goodbye
and no sweet sugar I did not cry
Because you see I am a modern guy
so don't worry about me
For
I ain't lonely no siree
I ain't lonely connected I be
I got me that big old internet
and soon poor you I will forget
So many new friends and so many views
all for me to constantly review
I ain't lonely, no siree
I got so much I can do
don't really need to be bother by you
I can stream whatever I want to see
even get music for free
dang near all the entertainment
a guy would need
the internet takes care of me
That dang covid don't bother me
with internet I get home delivery
Fast food, groceries, games and more
the whole world deliver to my door
Don't need your advice anymore
pop ups tell me what I am looking for
I ain't lonely no siree
Just because I look to see
if just maybe there might be
A message from you to me
so baby please unblock me
It's not that I want you back
actually it is more than that
I miss your smile, I miss your charms
I miss holding you in my arms
I miss your tease, I miss your squeeze
I miss being together we were pleased
Sweet sugar my internet won't do
cause sweet sugar it just isn't you
I so enjoyed my escape into your beautiful mind.
Traveling along synaptic highways,
moving at the speed of thought.
I journeyed to our yesterdays,
happy thoughts encased in light.
Your storehouse of hugs and kisses,
all those smiles that shone so bright.
I saw that look,
as you gazed in the mirror.
Head resting on my shoulder,
you feeling me near.
The taste of orange crush on your tongue.
Were we ever that young?
I could have stayed there forever,
yet your thoughts are your own.
So happy for that slice of time.
Even now we are connected, intertwined.
Come escape into my mind.
Travel along synaptic highways.
Come travel at the speed of thought!
High is the humidity,
Unpredictable like the economy.
I watch the once grassland begone into the tummies of the rigid structures.
Waiting for the rain.
The world is quite fast
Not wanting to take a rest.
They said there would be rest,
All I see are hamsters,
Running the wheel of progression.
Young and old alike.
Wonderful were the days
When the old brother played in the fields.
The race of life has driven the wheel.
Quiet is the silence,not wanting to acknowledge.
All I see is,are the sins of the past.
Regrets may have been lead to growth,
Not the hearted gold.
Words can be written,
In the slate of the grave,
Or in the notes of the piano.
It isn't lonely when the reaper is here,
But the vale of the rail.
When the young lied,
It broke the strings,
None at fault,not at all.
Laughters can be seen,
If the check is played right.
Value can be rewritten once the one is no longer.
It can be a bit harsh
To forget the beloved,
The wheels are cog for the watch,
Spinning forever and will be lost in time.
Strings can be knitted,
But not connected.
It's not that much,
To accept the deed
And move on.
I baked you cookies

I baked you cookies
Just like I did when you were young
All those tea parties we had together
Imagination, love and fun
Those memories, they still linger
After all these blessed years
We held each other close
Through the storms and all the tears
You were my delightful bunny
You were my teddy bear
You were my little angel
My love forever, my daughter dear
No matter the time or distance
No matter the continental space
We are connected through our souls and cells
We are God's divine love and grace

I pray that we be ever connected
Now and always, no time excepted
Unbroken awareness, divine entwined
Love enabled, with ego declined
I pray that we be ever connected
Now and always, no time excepted
As a non-doer, yet doing with zest & zeal
All circumstances holding equal appeal
I pray that we be ever connected
Now and always, no time excepted
Dispersing among all, the fragrance divine
Self surrendered, knowing that all is thine
I pray that we be ever connected
Now and always, no time excepted
Be I fearless, desireless & empathetic
Accepting life as it is, joyously ecstatic
I pray that we be ever connected
Now and always, no time excepted
May I be equal in both victory and defeat
Ego surrendered, with divine joy replete
I pray that we be ever connected
Now and always, no time excepted
May I respect the journey of each spirit
Judging in no one, neither fault nor merit
I pray that we be ever connected
Now and always, no time excepted
Be I devoid of feral lust & gross greed
Loving embrace in thought, word & deed
I pray that we be ever connected
Now and always, no time excepted
Unseeking seeker, unexpectant yet ready
A detached observer, tranquil & steady
I pray that we be ever connected
Now and always, no time excepted
May in all realms be I so enabled
That my ego’s agenda be never tabled
I pray that we be ever connected
Now and always, no time excepted
Trustingly unhurried about my attainment
Content in Universe bestowed enablement

In the depths of your being, there lies a spark,
A divine flame, lighting up the dark.
Empowered from within, you'll surely see,
The strength to conquer, to be truly free.
God within you, the source of all might,
Guiding your steps, in the darkest night.
With every breath, feel the power surge,
Unlocking potential, like a sacred dirge.
To remain empowered, stay connected deep,
To your inner self, where secrets keep.
Forge a bond, intimate and true,
With the God within, in all you do.
Love like Jesus, forgive with grace,
Walk in faith, in every place.
Pray with power, evangelize bold,
Study, obey, let your story unfold.
Overcome desires, conquer every vice,
With divine empowerment, break the ice.
Face life's trials, with unwavering stride,
For within you, God's power resides.
So let your light shine, with divine decree,
For empowered within, you are truly free.
