Just before sunrise
The firmament feels nearer
‘Tis a mystery….
Luke 8:10 “To you it has been given to know the mysteries of the kingdom of God….”

What aspects of your cultural heritage are you most proud of or interested in?
If my cultural heritage is not only a 3rd gen Greek, German, Irish, Swedish, Pole, but also a Child Of God, then I am most interested in that I can look back and see that, in all of my 56 years, God has always gifted me a window, that I might look outward and be in awe of Him. He knows I’ll run each morning to raise open the sash and search for the sunrise. He lets me hear the majesty of the wind, but also always lets me hear a small bird’s song. Do you hear the small bird’s song, too?

My flaw…fatal to my piousness
My world…colored by a hopefulness
Might I…take a chance on holiness
Comfort…sufferers of loneliness?

Flight and Thought
What to do, what to do
We’ll see liberty through
For, to fall for The Fall now, will simply not do
Let’s recall every Spring, every Summer of Days
Let us loose our lost fervor, and our gen’ral malaise
As we move with a grace in a number of ways
We will walk, not as pawns, but as kings and as queens
We will castle, together — ‘tis what unity means
This, and, when needed, forming unlikely teams
The time, seeming plenty, is deceivingly short
This is urgent, as each soul’s not yet found its Fort
We, for Truth, serve as Knights, here on this Earthly court

No One Cares For Poetry
I saw green-grey mountains in your eyes
I saw galaxies
Where lived my best friend
Places no one had been to
Places I longed to travel within
In rushed the moment I had to decide
Betray myself for wanderlust, or
Say goodbye to the wandering eye
Goodbye, mountains
Goodbye, friend

What colossal wind
An unpredicted and confused gale
Battered about by its atmosphere
Choosing to crash to and fro
I stand in this lighthouse of a heart
Timing the thunder
Praying away the destruction
Wishing The Port would beware

I know why you bought blue
There was turmoil churning inside you
And twilight’s horizon in view
Hope is why I sought gold
To optimism’s grip, I take hold
Sunrise on this hill won’t get old
What’s Right: A Haiku
I know what’s for me
Arms filled with rain, if need be
Chasing ambience

Welcome Home
To touch — though trembling — my own regret
Or the parts of me about which I wish to forget
To steal back words I spoke from my unknown fears
And the squandered minutes that turned into years
To give only love to places that feel most hated
But allowing no ground when boundaries are debated
I sealed my yesterdays with fervency’s kiss
Then woke up tomorrow and carried out this
Kamala
Oh, I do
Hope
May The Flowers read my thousand thoughts
My apologies for the thistle, I allowed to crowd
Forgive me for the invasive vines, that strangled your sunlight away
As I stayed grieving lost ground
There, at blooms edge, sat I
Dreams began to die
But for a mid-morning,
A cool sunlit day, then, did I decide
To pause and prosecute, with an, “anchors aweigh,” a finally-freed echinacea
With my accomplished call, did the butterfly bush become tall
“No more…by the grace of God, no more”
Of a Feather
Fireflies try
And, so do I
To simply fly
And not ask why
Of the days we get stepped on
Of our glow from dusk to dawn
Should our days feel underground
Should the answers stay unfound
Fireflies know
And, so do I
Our wings and light
Will end the night
