aroused by the moment we

  smile... letting go of our fears
    laying down our soulshields as we
      invites the future to our past
    growing long shadows of memories while we
  hurl the remaining pieces into another
                                    time...

     flying low with childhood heroes
         leaving nothing behind but
untold lies we hurry happily further back in
                                    time...
           towards the beginning of all, the
    end of the world as they knew it as we all
         rise and fall in beautiful asymmetry

forgiveness

Autumn leaves colored
by the sound of lonely thoughts
travelling like Leotigers
in deep waterfalls

searching true forgiveness
for all we ever were
revealing a victorious haze
through witch we see who cares

Winters lack of color
gently overturns
the silent dance of flower buds
t'wards hope and not concerns

then Spring and Summer once again
will let us all behold
our ship sets sail for joyful smiles
not silver, bronze nor gold

with smiling lips we find our hearts
were made to be forgiving
and I can shout and really mean it:
I LOVE LIVING!

dark

night
                  lights
my eyes searching the sky
     clouds
               floating by
      see
                              the *stars!

strawberries

on the afternoon organic table
wanting to be willing and able
to shrink down in size
not even realize
the carrot
was the true believer

found a poem I wrote back in 2007...
a little strange, but I like the asymmetrical flow...

walking

flashing yellow light
loosened sandals embrace my feet
cool breese welcomes the night
as I walk an empty street
subtle sounds arouse my passion
commercials, milkshake, fashion
overhead - the next flight
to somewhere not here...
let's play - LUDO

dreaming

sitting silent in the dark of the night
watching ferocious dustbunnies ending the
days work in the mindmines of corners
homebound they chant merrily as
they swirl towards the safehaven under
furniture only scared when awakened by
the sound of the vacuumcleaner but not tonight
tonight we let dustbunnies live their own lives
only sitting
and watching
dreaming that nothing is too much
too much is nothing
enough nothing and you wish for change
change change change in the corners
cornered we all seek a way out
or a way in or just away
up up and away we sway on stacks of hay
down down down on the farm of striped
grassiron eating stardustplasma for breakfast
wearing fenominal hatlike feathers in
the colours of the rainbow
of long gone heroes
from other times
time

nocturnal wordplay

All through the dark
hear the dogs bark
  hear the logs hark
   hear the past shouting
          silently
loudly whispering
             in the blistering
      sunshine of yesterday
scarecrows of sticks and hay
      running in the fields
    looking for their shields
with sunset 'round the corner
    they set out to warn her
       of traps and danger
            trying to change her
way of looking
            her way of cooking
it all down to nothing
        this lack of
               a strong king
      just absence of
                                   light
we're only watching the night
