The Hero - Monomyth

(Dedication: For Ann)

The tale now mints: a hero hears
A call that tints, a choice appears.


It cannot be, this journey quest
To cross the seas, to face the test.


Denial comes brisk, no hero here
To dare grave risk,...

Holy Saturday

On wooden cross, The Christ was nailed;
His Spirit tossed, painful death sailed...

The centurion's lance pierced His side;
In sure fashion, blood water strides.

The Christ was gone from the grim earth;
Limp body forlorn waiting new birth.

Highways beckon now as our tour meanders;
Vistas speak beauty as coach bears our load;

Lijiang In Yunnan, China

SPRINGTIME MEMORIES



Mountain sentinels
By ancient town;
Clear waters cascade


Cobblestone streets
Winding pavements;
Trade offerings buzz


Fertile plains
Crystal clear waters;
Shady trees guard


Treasure-hunting stroll...
Through Lijiang Old Town;
Curiosity detours


So many things to see
Pleasant fare tempting;
Buying spree bargains


Artisans at work
Township flings open trade;
Silver metal...

Timely Fragments

Old Jambu tree
Still bearing fruits;
Generous delights

NDP crowd
Massive tapestry;
Community celebration

Each passing year
Affirms our country;
Diversity in oneness

We celebrate
Our little red dot;
Gratitude remembers

So much to see
So little time;
Familiar complaint

~~~~~~~~~


Fireworks display
After The Pledge;
Poignant philosophy

~~~~~~~~~


Politics means action
Mere words concede;
Happy results...

Soul knows sure place
In time and space

Learn then to style
Poise that thus smiles
As grief greets wiles

Show up with poise
As inner voice
Leaps above noise

The 42 Inch Hallway

We’re stepping along the musty hallway now.
I am taking us on a fast-moving memory ride;
A mind-bending groovy slide to 1965,
When Dylan music was seeping loudly like a germ,
Down the green-carpeted hallway of...
