Many days
When I had nowhere to go
And all day to get there
Now I seem to be
Everywhere at once
But nowhere at all
All the time
But my heart
Remains strong
My spirit
Undiminished
So I
Unrelenting
Resist time
Live today
Work toward
Tomorrow
And I wonder at you and I
With all that space
We put between us
And still
We just can’t
Get along
I wonder at the lives
Lived in the glow
Which to me
Seems just a dot
Reflected
Off a still sea
Which warms us
From the chills
Of winter snows
And greens the Earth
So richly lush
With verdigris
But light
The centre
Of all things
Needs not a star
To warm the heart
Or dispel the shadows
Of the mind
