an alarming list of immediately urgent responsibilities
without an opportunity in sight,
or at least not this first despairing fright,
at end of night.
If this sounds familiar

Moments To Last A Lifetime
Hesitating, I feel his pulse
Racing, like the winds breathless
Whisper, through the oaks, the pines,
Forest’s redemption – erasing the melancholic
Fading stars, glazing a summer sky,

Two lives, pressed together – like petals,

From the PastThe past is like a secret hole
It can make us cry and it can make us smile,

Even the light that remains,
Where history portrays...
