Hope is what we feel,
Creates our even keel,
Hope makes smiles aglow,
Here on golden plateau,
Source--faith in Our Lord,
Wake up blessed, still awed!
Remain on an even keel through life
Can be challenging at times, lotsa strife
What I've found though
Be silly, trust me you know
Just march along to a drum and fife
beyond and below
beneath the cosmic tide
I awoke today to see
with the sun above
my shadow held tight
for lack of shade
as I crawl beneath
remnant chaparral
with this desert scruff
I scrub my bones
Remaining on an even keel through life
Can be challenging at times, lotsa strife
Here's what I've found though
Just be silly, trust me I know
Works for me, march along to a drum and fife
ambling along with zest and zeal
feeling in fullness, life’s appeal
this here now moment all there is
enlivening it with bliss fizz
tranquil presence on even keel

We took a risk; it worked out fine
But not without some stressing,
For everything in life requires
A fair amount of guessing.
Without such chances, we remain
Upon an even keel,
A little bored, perhaps, but hey,
Quite safe – that’s the appeal.
I’m usually risk-averse
But sometimes I get shaken
From my comfort zone and afterwards,
Feel glad it was forsaken.
SURREALITY
How does one know if it’s surreal
Cold logic sometimes plays its part
Is it what’s known or what you feel
When it’s a dimensional shift
It’s more likely brain, not the heart
With many images to steal
Yet Moebius loops have no start
As a supplicant, one should kneel
In the presence of abstract art
Whilst keeping on an even keel
When it’s a dimensional shift
Sometimes I just sit and ponder,
what the true meaning of lifes all about;
Try and figure out my insucurites,
and the reason Im so full of doubt,
Maybe Im too hard on myself,
with the pressure I apply from within;
Maybe I want too much to fast,
here comes doubt creeping in again.
How can I find a balance in life,
where I float with an even keel?
Not worrying about the future,
or losing for life its zeal?
Form:
I'm a nervous Nellie with good reasons you see.
Many a time I've had the rug pulled out from under me..
There are quiet stretches where I attempt to heal and
everything is co-pathetic, at an even keel..
Abruptly the rains come down and it's never
just a spittle.
It's often like the sky is falling and I'm poor Chicken Little..
If I only knew my future I could tweak the plot, then I
could stop waiting for the other shoe to drop..
Getting along brings my hearts delight
I don’t want your anger to ignite
I know I’m no shining knight
I don’t want us to fight
I know I’m not as lofty as a kite
As night is blue and day is white
I don’t want to always be right
I want your love for me to ignite
A kind look makes me high as a kite
I like to hear your insights
For us to be civil would be alright
Being with you is my hearts delight

Let’s have an amicable divorce, she said.
I thought she was taking it well.
Congratulated myself on not sure what.
At least there will be no problems here, she said.
She is even keel. Calm, reserved.
I feel okay about my affair now.
We are still best friends right?
This seemed a bit over the top.
But I agreed.
Thus, when the hell cat came to court
Snarling, snapping and screaming
I did not recognize her
Nor was I prepared in any way.
there is no more, nor is there less
it's like Alice through the looking glass
I circumvented one of the rules
now off the table what left you unglued
back to the banter, the touch and go
an even keel back to what we know
teasing thoughts and passion screams
under the moon when you fall asleep
the monsoons pass and there's thunderless sky
moving from summer into cold winter nights
you get closer as you follow your dream
brushing past the valley with old memories
Light Bulbs
Love is like a light bulb,
You can turn it off and on.
But if it burns to bright,
It won’t last too long.
Relationships take commitment,
Cause rough times are sure to come.
Realize nothing is perfect,
What’s wrong can be undone.
Put thought into your decisions,
Run the race, not a sprint
Listen to what they are telling you,
Take actions to their hints.
Lights that burn too hot,
Are quick to fade away.
Keep your love on an even keel,
To see another day.
