Premium Member Why Life
Why does dawn dress robust morning,
while dusk undresses sight?
Each dawn incarnates another Earth Day
a lifetime of Easter mornings 
redeeming nocturnal sight's revolution,
another therapeutic day of gift-it-forward light,

some shorter 
before naked covered night.

Why life?
To uncover...

Curtainless glass unable to subdue the urgency

I don't see you.
I've been searching my whole life,
But still, I don't see you.

When I was a wee lad
I looked for you ...
My mother's smile,
My father's toil,
My brother's refuge,
My sister's amity ...
I didn't see you.

The Easter Egg Hunt
I don't know how it started

But it's an annual event

But I don't think that an egg hunt

Mentors with the BeeTrees

From NorthWinds
come darkening winter
as newborn discontent
waiting to spring forth.

From SouthWinds
come summer's diastasis
climax of full-born wisdom,
contentment for and from all four directions
spread across sleeping hearts
of each nighttime regeneration.

From normalizing WestWind toward East colonializing

Valentines Day Is Everyday
Her cognition is sporadic

Lay on my chest like it’s a hammock
When she isn't calm

Cause behaviors like these in women
Can easily become habits
