With all of Earth
In its many tones
And textures
Such varieties
Among societies
So much beauty
In its peoples
Nothing stuns me more
Than when some implore
There’s but room enough
For One
This makes me take a sigh
Such varieties
Among societies
So much beauty
In its peoples
Nothing stuns me more
Than when some implore
There’s but room enough
For One
This makes me take a sigh
Moments
Beauty
Reality
But I have always used
My camera to create them
The art of life
Provides a more difficult task
I breathe a sigh
Stop asking why
Stop telling myself lies
Stop being so damn wise
To pick them now
Would be a sin
Though lovely vase
I’d put them in
No matter rooms
They’re brightening
The beauty of a flower is
The life it holds
While purpose lives
Not in its petals
On the ground
Arranged so pretty
An artful mound
That raging inferno
Of events
And despair
Perhaps the cool, calm place
Discovered me
I don’t know
The heat’s too hot
The cold’s too cool
No middle ground
To stand on
I choose one side
Or straddle both
The conflict
Still conflicted
