Long Impels Poems

Too many times sadly

I must learn to trust
Earth's future more

empowering 
soulful soil
and surfing seas

And this trusting more
impels healing trauma's lessons,
surviving hale and...

While others longed in vain, while some the winter blasts destroyed;

And thousands still their birth...

At times I, like a butterfly,
May flit from bloom to bloom,
Or with my whimsy set sky-high
To outer space may zoom.
And yet, when all’s been said and done,
I follow what my fate has spun—
For some may...

Hotel rooms, air conditioned cars
City sights and sounds and smells
A smile, a frown, a shout impels
The thoughts within to exude
And express themselves without interlude

Save the scented...

FOOT IN YOUR MOUTH

If your childhood  foot should  always meet  
Rocky shore or swelling sandy beach,
That textured strand remains in your feet 
Lifelong,  and in the rhythm your speech.

While in this world it seems opposites have attraction

Opened and showed,
The Sten gun and pistol toy"
Saying "this is a perfect...
