Upward rise,
Daily highs.
Skyward eyes,
Season's ties.
Crowded skies,
Southern cries,
Northward flies.
Mated prize,
Winter dies.

Releasing floods that still remain

Is it to be just a shrug
A mumbled ‘Whatever’
Eyes rolling upward
Or maybe that spark
With an engaging smile
And a happy ‘Yes’

Singing a glorious song
Casting rainbows upward
A constant reminder
Of God's promise
To never flood the earth again

trying to break free
The Body ropes it
wrestling desperately
This constant struggle
does not enlighten me

Winterberries hang overhead
With which arbor hold delightful red.
Wind upward warmth thread;
Winged fairies wed, fluttered, and fled.

The mind and body
Our souls live inside us
When the body dies
Then our souls leaves
Our souls will soar
Upward to heaven
Ready to be reborn

Love
You betray us
In this dark
We buried you
In Central Park
Gospel eyes
Ascending upward,
Again, this lark, as
Far as the eyes can see

Upward in supplication
Receive sunburst's light

pushing, pulling, lifting upward towards the heavens
like Gods omnipotent will
invisible , untouchable impossible to hold

The sun rises East
and it lowers in the West,
moon reflects its light,
plants grow upward to touch it,
still... just one "Light of the World."

A man's ribs facing upward
In river and rain

we each live by
our own version
being but a play
of desire and aversion
we who so seek
a bubble in time
soul in bondage
yearns to upward climb
