Life

Surrounded by indifference,
Swamped by ignorance,
Suffocated by illusion,
Starved by idiocy,
We stumble on.

Outside Time

Haze skirts the hills.
The day will break hot.
Now though, I step
Into a space where
Manufactured time does
Not exist.

As I slip through the threshold,
The mundane world vanishes like
A rejected blanket on a
Warm summer’s night.
 Here I stand isolated and
Insulated but deeply connected.

A crow’s morning call, Caw, caw,
Penetrates pleasantly puncturing 
The shelter.

Sitting on my garden stool
Surrounded by fundamental Life,
Not primordial but,
A cooperation between human and plant,
A natural hybrid.

In here, even for the briefest
Moment, hope renews like
A young shoot recently escaped
From a seed, reaching for air.

The connection most basic,
Element for element, results
In a fair exchange between plant and I.

Play

Wind sighing softly,
Snow is growing diamonds.
Chrildrens' laughter sings.

Choice

Our thoughts are threads.
Our minds the loom.
The weaving never-ending,
Spinning happiness or gloom.
