I see the world
In ways my ancestors
Could not imagine
In ways my ancestors
Could not imagine
But I wonder too
At the worlds now gone
I cannot imagine

Beautiful Blur
Sometimes
It’s a blur
All of it
As if through a window
Stained by fog and rain
It’s a blur
All of it
As if through a window
Stained by fog and rain
A beautiful blur
For which clarity
Is not always
An improvement
For All I Have and All that’s Yet to Come
On this day
Of joy and giving
Of gifts received
Of blessings offered
I am most grateful
Of joy and giving
Of gifts received
Of blessings offered
I am most grateful
For all I have
For all that’s yet to come
For all the possibility
Which I can not yet see
And most of all
For the love I give
And am given freely
The love pervading all
On this and every day
The grace we share through love
All the Sky was Smoke
The creatures toiled
Upon the land
They built machines
To ease the work
Created engines
To drive the cogs
And fueled it all
With all that burned
Upon the land
They built machines
To ease the work
Created engines
To drive the cogs
And fueled it all
With all that burned
For every thing
The creatures made
Five other things
Were thrown away
For every turn
Of every cog
The fuel they burned
Created smog
‘Til over time
Before too long
In fact, before
The fuel was gone
Their world could not
Sustain their waste
The climate changed
With break neck pace
Fire ~ Pic and a Word Challenge #152
I cannot see the fire
Still, the sky betrays its presence
As yet the flames present no danger
Though the possibility be mentioned
Still, the sky betrays its presence
As yet the flames present no danger
Though the possibility be mentioned
So am I reminded
A threat may seem remote
Or weak in its intention
But a threat it is
Toxic in its notion
I do well to heed an atmosphere in tension
Where There’s Fire
Sinewy sifting
Suffusing valleys
Smoke expanding
Soft stifling blanket
Seeking prairies
Eastward
Suffusing valleys
Smoke expanding
Soft stifling blanket
Seeking prairies
Eastward
The Most Powerful Love
I try to imagine
Something more powerful
Than the beauty of you
More magnetic
Than the light of your being
Something which could draw me in
With such inescapable gravity
As the love I’ve discovered
At the center of your heart
Something more powerful
Than the beauty of you
More magnetic
Than the light of your being
Something which could draw me in
With such inescapable gravity
As the love I’ve discovered
At the center of your heart
Nothing comes to mind
