Traveler

I can only deduct
It is not our's to keep
Provided by the sun
The particles of the meek

I can only conclude
I'm riding on a wave
Paddling in different directions
Sifting through the haze

I can only decipher
My thoughts in simple words
Weaving through this emptiness
Connected to this earth

We can only dream of
That which we cannot be
Free from these stages
Of human suffering

If I Disappear

Apr 10 M-E

Abbott J Hardison

If I Disappear

If I ever disappear,
Don't go looking,
I will be long gone,
Far away with the winds.

But if you wish to hear me,
Lend an ear to the early breezes,
You will hear me voice,
Calling out, softly singing.

Long away with the winged birds.

Icarus Wanted it All

Apr 9 M-E

Thomas W Case

Icarus Wanted it All

He had wings that
gave him flight.
The sun was
beautiful and bright.
It melted into the ocean.

But there is danger in
flying too low as well,
just ask the mermaids in
the depths of hell.
The seawater screws
up the lift.

Fly to safety and
peace,
not the
fantastical or
far-fetched.
You don't need to
have it all.
Beware of

too

much

ambition.

Lovebirds

Apr 9 M-E

Cassandra Livingston

Lovebirds

When your embrace envelopes me,
I'm forever within your protection.
And there is no place I'd rather be
than between your arms of affection.

The bluebird buried inside my heart
flutters whenever you surround.
And through your sweet sincerity,
it forever sings Freedom's sound.

Inspired my favorite poem of Charles Bukowski.
And my bluebird is now a lovebird, thanks to a special someone.

When is water not water ?

Apr 9 M-E

South-by-Southwest

When is water not water ?

She drew the water out of me,
"Looks like it's mostly all a lie ."

"When is water not water when it's only water ?" was my only reply .

She gave me that icy stare .
I could see the steam arising .
Then when it hit 39.6°
things became so dense she longer seemed to care .

39.6 F is 4.2 C . At that temperature water becomes it's densest form . Any colder or hotter and it starts to expand into ice or more oxygenated water , vapor or steam .
