Pulse of Now

we are but time-space pieces
variations in the pulse of a now
just densities in a void
with a dream titled reality
an illusion called power

Night by day
and with each passing presence
health I find
to live for Earth each way.

Time times time
and in each spatial present

to love with Earth's light play.

She Speaks For the Dead

A pleasant, relieving 
sadness fills me 
as I pass in the shadows
of gravestones. 

The mockingbird 
on high alert 
speaks for them,
in the night's deepest hour
its chirps are variations
of lives once lived.

Earth

Evergreen reaching blue continuum 

Aloft and immersed gallery

Rockies, gems carved in mystery

Treacherous terrain variations

Harboring living enigmas

As I Walk-Vi

As I Walk in contemplation 
I find the swiftness of change 
to be unnerving at times 
rules are revised without warning
variations come and lives are altered
deprived of rhyme or reason
I'm astounded by the anger 
questioning change creates.

A Stretch of Land

A Stretch of Land

When our mind is aware
Of a stretch of land
A map comes forth in
Many variations
Of measurement and
Enumeration..
Maps are masks which
We do not recognize
Until a nagging something
Asks what can be known
By removing the mask...

Dewfresh Morn

Praise this renewed daybreak
Grace of sunlight
Pouring into my home
Blessings unfold
To grant me well with peace
That work be bright 
In times of restlessness
My strength I hold !

and weight is burdened evening ease

Child Seed

Both asleep and awake
children dream the world.

Each morning is remade,
imagined as endless variations
of reconstruction.

The unfeasible dream
contains the seeds we all need
to grow this cosmic garden.

Each seed is a child of tomorrow,
if today
we plant one.

I L-O-V-E Y-O-U

I am taken by the thoughts of you being mine
Leaving permanent marks on my life
Over came by the pursuit and the
Variations of time
Eternal becomes mere seconds
You are safe in my mind
Opening up, letting you in, because I trust you
Under any circumstance, I will fall back to you

Colours

The world around us
In shades of light – soft or bold
That stirs emotions 

As the mind through eye
Perceives these variations
Giving them meaning

As it attempts to
Mix ciaos with order to
Create harmony

Variations I

The sun spills
through the early
August leaves, and I
remember nothing,
nothing of love or
the fiery tongue
of youth, here, on
this dry ground, is
only tinder,
only the wind
catching the cracked
branch,
and each the tender
ashes scatter once
more
into the shimmering
August sun
