Goodness Ocean
I take my leave from those who gaze, idly
Or avert their eyes, altogether
Onward, Ho! To teach!
To share air — and indeed, to breathe!
For I can only learn and grow
Alongside those who will take their turn
Do their worst, and make such noise
To right the wrongs with waves of change
As the Goodness Ocean must
And All The People Said
Let the sounds in — all of them!
Have them ramble around, bouncing off the humidity-coated walls
See which ones bust through stop signs and find rhythm with bird songs
Find which ones look like quiet conviction and calls to action
Then mull about together, dialogue, and make sense of this world with them
Create order from disorder and call it good again
At the end of the day, we must
Goodness Forward
I see we
Coral reefs rebuilding
Faith and science merging
Fingers intertwining
Neighborly and such
Time to be
Touching at heart-level
With one cause, all rebels
Sisters, brothers ever
Keeping, caring much
One, two, three
Breaths, then best foot forward
Goodness in deed and word
See how heaven has heard
Angels among us
Expanse
Want: A Haiku
Our actions, absent
Our language, lacking goodness
Why do we not care?
Benevolent Sky
Why the sky wanted me as its muse
I cannot say
I’d not wish to betray its lifelong, headstrong whimsy?
In its own whirlwind of Days, I was its only constant?
Pressure, and I the soft voice that reduced the storm of it all?
Mercy, it contained and it wanted to rain upon me?
Surely it cannot be a great love for me. Or…can it be?
On the possibilities, I pretend to opine
But I cannot say
Received
Has it been said to me
Before
Through some spirit
Holy or Otherwise
I do not recall
Just that it occurred to me
Or came to me
Just this moment
Through some spirit
Holy for Certain
That
Any
Good in me
Is
Christ in me
Haiku
A misplaced hello
All of the patient prayer
Shan't grace you again
Titan: Another Haiku
Much too much goodness
More promise and more substance
Than spine to withstand
