Short Air To Air Poems

Ghosts breathe this air
Like mortal men
Through air, ghosts breathe
Sweet air, sweet air...

From air to air that's spread on
Touching dew wet leaves it flies
As if silk-cotton's kingdom
From the chimney's mouth

Seed in seed
great life

Water in water
great life

Light in light
great life

Air in air
great life

Life in life
great life

Death in life
great life

By this way natural eternity

above the metronomic constant dripping of a tap

and the deep and heavy ticking of an old grandfather clock

sounds seeped through a window where the night air found a gap:

a cough!

 - then silence. 

..then a key inside a lock....

No less cold, nor less hot
And yet, in my day
What had induced, more so
Outward facing joy.
Dragged off from did annoy
As deflect away.

Nothing can thwart a child!
True now. Truer then!
And let me now tell you
Of such a self will.
Air froze, air fused, and still
A door flew open....

I sit here,
oblivious to worldly obstacles,
surrounded by air, and air alone,
presenting myself to G-d
as only He can see me,
Unashamed, uninhibited,
to partake in endeavors
that others flee for free,
observing subtleties that
can only be seen,
through the eyes of
a naked man.

(11/16/92)...

I turned slowly to capture a glimpse of you
but  you disappeared and started  to fade 
Where are you?
My betrothed 
My one and only
I long for your touch
I am suffocating without you 
I can't breathe...no air...no air
My lungs are collapsing
Only you can save me  and become
what I need to survive this torment
Your love in turn will be my miracle

From the true root to the point of zenith
Stand still as good to seize
Though zigzag more the roads are fit
It’s zero bridge

No thing as the zinc in life to make zest
The math of time calls all
Zip of breathless veins is not best
If gas in gall

No soul in the zither but tone to feel
Survives this air to air
Cradle to grave none can do zeal
Except zephyr

Morning night, Morning night 
I'm not sure if I will ever win this fight
1234 
I feel as if I have lived this life many times before
"come on it will be fun"
with what friends I have none
air in air out 
and don't ever pout
everyday if like a time warp
a constant loop
until the day I tie the rope
and take one last step
with your pcture kept forever in my heart
because life is a story and that's my part...

Suddenly I’ve walked out, into the air…
All bluely about, what am I supposed to do? 
Dance! Dance! 
Under the willow tree. 
Blue air, fresh air, come in….  
I welcome your necessity.
Around me. 
In me. Through me. 
Out. 
Invisibly intimate.  
Between all and all between, hold me tightly with your weaving winds.  
I never knew I lost you, until I found you.  
Your thankless endeavors…..existence. 
Such is your glory....

Today is what matters, today is now
Tomorrow is just a promise
Forgotten somehow

Today is the present
Get in gear and explore
Live out all your fantasies
For tomorrow may be just a bore

Today is this instance
Tomorrow can change in a flash
Grab life and air, big air
Share your love till it lasts

Today is for gain
Right now make the call
Say I am sorry or I love you!!
For tomorrow is just a promise
Forgotten somehow...

this balloon needs me...
needs all of my air... 

I'll squeeze myself into
it...

...to blow it up...to strangle
it...to release it skyward...

I'll stand and watch it float by...

...balloon bobs through the wind...

through the air...the air I breathe...

this balloon it carries me higher

purple balloon has so much fun...

purple balloon floats my lungs...

this purple balloon this air I breathe
this purple balloon now free......

Have you ever ridden in a balloon on the air?

Oh, how I remember the quiet there.

As on the currents of wind we were borne

Watching the sun rise, as from the horizon it was torn.

Riding on nature's majesty...with nary a care.



Passing o'er the desert with all its splendor

Riding the gondola, the true "Air Bender".

Seeing the hills alight with the morning sun

Carefree, quiet, having such fun.

Memories of when our hearts were young and tender....

Whistling air
burning fire
running water,
waiting earth...
water with earth, clay,
water with air, foam,
fire with water, water
very warm...
Air with air, flute,
earth with earth, garden,
fire with fire, love,
water with water, agauceiro...
Just four essences,
four sweet handfuls
and a cauldron...
The universe has already been
 perfumed with magnolias... !
