To enlarge your world
move slowly and pause to meet
God in the other....

Lost It On My Lap

Saw another ap
That suffered from a mishap
Lost it on my lap.

Wow. Spell check doesn't
recognize AP. Small world.

One dish of seeds enough for my home,
Two dishes enough for my family,
Four enough for my country,
Eight for my world,
Small world all loved ones mine!...

she loves her tiara and satin gown
he’s in a stiff tuxedo, feels like a clown
another mismatched couple, who will marry after prom
thinking they are in love, a small world they live on...

Haiku Days
	
	
	Haiku mornings 
		coffee

		and quiet in the house.
	
	Haiku nights 
		red wine

Mama and Daddy
Are the whole of my small world
They love and tend me
Mama calls me Sweet Angel
My world is warm and happy

A small blue world
		sits in my palm,
		perfect.
		I don’t know why,
		but I am sad.
		It marked me
		somehow,
		that small world,
		seeded with hopes of
		future worlds
		and new cycles
		of life....

Alone in this world,
What do I have to live for?
There’s nothing here,
For me any more.
If you’re not near,
There’s everything to fear.
It was because of your love,
I felt so strong,
Soft as a dove,
Now its gone....

sun’s
cascade
high spirits
trees on a hill
live lemony leaves
untroubled by darkness
inconsequential small world
worries pandering to the depths
the forest too bright and blithe to cry
hallelujah mount leads to heaven's gate

Oh dear, what life brings 
What a small world we live in 
Where life brings us next... 

...Well, that is unknown 
In time, we will understand 
For now, let it be 

Again I shall say, 
What a small world we live in... 
Life full of wonder...

eventful then miserable

Beauty seen, passing by, too fast, turning towards the others, running, seeming to say, A-Day,. The misery of seeing, her willing turn, her going, making my small world, eventful then miserable, the crave, to watch again, sitting in the local cafe....

Sailing a boat
Out to the sea
Waves and wind 
Rain and haze
Will carry us astray
Our ability to control 
Is not that simple 
Even a small boat
Even a small world 
We can be lost
Sometimes 
We can rule our hearts
But never our fate
And so 
Never the rest of the world...

You soar into my 
consciousness on eagle's 
wings,
your aura stole my 
atmosphere like the dew in 
Spring.
My heart was lured by the 
lines in your sugar-candy 
eyes,
I just opened a can of 
wonder and it leads to 
paradise..
If it is a small word, I would 
have met you a 
million times

Can this get me a

Long it has been 
My tunnel awaits 
Long it will be 
For me to awake 

Darkness numbs 
The loud surrey
Kindness keeps warm
I'm reminded not everyday

Secluded from this small world 
Smaller it seems
But this too is enough 
to bring joy or weep

Like every other sorrow 
This tunnel is my morrow
And this too shall pass
With many more to follow...

Small Tree Planted
Its Roots Extend
Small World Enchanted
Its Branches Ascend

Mountains In Glory Rise
Shining Forth Fatherly Strength
Reaching Into The Skies 
A God At Length. 

From A Rain To A Drought
Nature Shows Her Power Divine
As A Flower About To Sprout
To Her Glory, Stoics Resign

Color my small world -
   Oh, fair Yeshua -
With a streak of globe mallow
   Inside a rocky draw

And the morning calm
   Of bergamot and lupine -
So I can stop time
   And set my gaze upon them -

And a swath of poppies
   Glowing in the sun
And a glint in the breeze
   As if to show Your love.

I'll go and walk about
   The garden variety -
Knowing that this niche
   Is where I want to be....

In the middle of my own small world I stand,
Both feet planted firmly on the land.
Gold is the sun in the sky.
Oh, that I could fly!
Then you see -
I
Would be free!
Earth-bound, though, I sigh.
I'll remain so till I die.
Knowing that out there is something grand,
In the middle of my own small world I stand.

This love is a small world after all...
I have met you a million times
we commited some common crimes
yet this love stands proud and tall.

I met you when reality was a dream,
a dream in the womb of wishes.
I saw You in skies filled with fishes,
you were the star I met by the stream.

I lost you when I bought a dream
and found you in the reality I sold...
You are more precious than gold...
I wish that reality was my dream....

Beauty so she was.

Kind so she was. 

Ugly beautiful,
beautifully ugly so she was. 

Strong, divine-
tired of time, 
so she was. 

Lost in a huge small world.

No difference between,
happiness and misery.

Nothing to say-
yet, full of words,
so she was. 

The world so blinded; however,
the truth is easy to feel. 

Purposes are ultimately opinionated,
so, is my purpose creativity? 

Every-thing constantly changing,
so was she....

whats in inside
might i ask 
the bottom 
so shiney the 
top comes off 
and feel quickly 
as he grab...
doing heist.
making more money
then a taxi cab.....

right doing 
x girl friend called
ask how's things 
moving...
i laugh and told her
all good improving...
she said i saw your 
brother... small world
conversation went dry
like clothes being top
by the summer sky
you pain. i be the top 
until you ready to love a gain...

Once asked who is mad
So creatively said medical doctor
It's him a real mad fellow
Who easily gets out of a locked prison room
Through the picture of an open door
Painted on the stone brick wall.
He then pays dearly for thick porridge
Together to eat with steaming beef stew
Beautifully painted on canvas wall hanging
In exclusive five star city hotel.
But really not mad all the same:
The man just too sane
In a small world where
Things are very real....
