Different breadths. 

Surfing sometimes 
Hard at times. 

Pausing 
Dossing.

  Placid the calm of reflection
Millions of souls spinning through time
  Never pausing once for direction...

“boustrophedonic”


a cow plows across the page and

never stops except to catch its

Imprinted on our hearts forever;
Together from sunrise to sunset,
each hour filled with joy;
You and I 
pausing the world with laughter, 
for just one day....

Pausing on the way to socialism
The entrepeneur inspects a prism
  Many colors shine through
  They are red, white and blue
He vows he'd rather die than see it through...

She dances gracefully
around her grief,
heart and mind
following body
into the light
to escape the
shadow's weight
only pausing to cry
when they play
'Uptown girl'...

we spot a full moon
heading home after dinner
our heads and hearts are lifted

pausing on our way
this bright usher of intrigue
beckons us to sing and dance

coral snakes
come up
to
the surface
to 
breathe the sweet air
weaving their basket
what
bundle of love
extraordinaire 
only
one change to pair
then mate
while
pausing to pray...

The mist lifts her skirts
Wisps, tufts, half-ghosts
flit across dawn's lake..
  pausing
  suspended mid-race
  peering at the shoreline...
Fearful, they sail off
chased away 
to nowhere...

tabby cat, eyes glow
moving in garden shrubbery
hunting, pausing

alert to movement
within shadowed places
soft purr erupting

pounce and miss
joyful moment, hunt is fun
now a nap for her...

Indict Trump House Is Proceeding

Trump told many lies while impeding;
Towards destruction country is leading;
Often pausing;
Trouble causing;
Indict him House plans on proceeding.

Seconds slide into minutes
minutes into years
Only pausing to rejoice
birthdays and graduations
weddings and deaths
Marks on the calendar
to celebrate another creaking joint
and fading memories...

A coy moon glides in a lively 
Viennese waltz
Across a sky of billowing 
petticoat clouds 
A flowing, triple time, closed 
step, pausing halt. 
A ballerina basking in the glow 
of appreciative crowds....

don't know where I'm going
seems like I'm pausing
for too long
still my home is far
much too far from here
And I'm feeling I should live
beyond those broken skies
where I can be in arms of loves
grace...

Along a pebbled path,
A panther pressed his paws,
Paying pure attention to,
The placement of his paws.
Pretending to be placid,
(pausing as to play),
The panther purred with pleasure,
As he pounced upon his prey....

Trump Is Pedalling Meddling 

Sure seems pathetic when President is pedaling;
In other party's affairs always may be meddling;
After pausing,
Trouble causing,
When things down,  Trump should start settling.

Conscious contemplative Concentration…
Thankfulness thwarts thinking
From fracturing factual freedom…
Practice personal peace pausing
Daily doing deeds
Intending igniting illumination
Transforms time to timeless
Building beautiful beings…...

On such lovely mornings
I dive into you

Fingers probing
your ebony hair

Pausing along the sexy winding
curves of your ear

Winding the sacred trail
down along your shoulder

As you lie sleeping
I am Magellan

And
You are new country......

The shadows entice
All who are present
Feel the vibrations
That encase our lungs
Black spills throughout here

Tainted by night
We drift among
Bleak entities
Pausing for air

Threats of bile
Stir inside
Lifeless souls

We are 
No more

Gone....
