Mom is the little bird at first light
Eager for sunshine
Yet happy
Snuggled in her nest

I don’t call myself good.
I just happen to know goodness
He’s like a next door neighbor
Who keeps inviting himself over
If you don’t know him
Ask him to greet you
He will teach you hope
Then remind you when you forget

Clever, clever
If I ever
Found a way
Into your never
A place of awe
Of old direction
A face on water
Yet no reflection
I walk on rocks
Near the shore
You’ll find me there
Evermore

I hear your pain
I just want you to feel
the smile of a stranger
A gift of hope
A slice of cake
Placed neatly on a plate
A sweet for you
Dear Reader
Friend
I want so much
for you to taste
Peace
I pray you find it
Or it find you

Sometimes
Life needs
the middle
So many sides
As if we aren’t
In a mixing bowl
So I mix it up
I push the sides
to the center
I pull them
I turn them
I mold them
I mesh them
That is how
To make waffles

I cannot find you
You will not find me
I saw you one day
spry little red fox
camouflaged by dawn
slowly climbing down
the high autumn field
I always imagined
your strategic prance
narrow yet refined
It was then the time
to meet your wisdom
But no, our gaze met
we both knew the truth
was the beginning
and the end
You vanished
as if
you were never found.
I will keep looking
Even as life moves on
hiding last minutes
Beneath doors
As the mouse
Slowly
Journeys to the field

Life is not easy
So many twists and turns
People trying to find happiness
Who likely have no clue to it’s whereabouts
As if it were a trinket to be found
Sometimes I wonder
Even if they knew how to be happy
Would they choose to be happy
or are they just
pretending
To want something just because they know they do not have it
I don’t envy them
Those with happiness I mean
I respect them.
I have it sometimes too
Happiness
I find it in the twists and turns
Life is not easy

Dear weary soul, are you aware
there are more stars, than grains
of sand?
Did you know, the places you would go
the stories told, through the wrinkles
of your hand?
Though you feel small, you shall rise
Like Maya, it is no disguise.
Everyday you wake, you see a new light
You made it again, you veteran
You can do this, now fight!

One step,
another step
These stairs of life,
upside down
They walk on me.

The night fades like the flavor
of vanilla ice cream after a taste
of chocolate before the crunch
of hardened cookie mixed with the gush
of cream mixed in a different cream
of which the origin is all nearby
The night is the final last report
of the firework which pounded the sky
of a small town in the middle
of a big land
of people that dream dreams
of putting cookies in ice cream
