I like to joke
knowing I am
ultimately
a skeleton
but laugh I will
at my jokes
knowing I am
in great company

keepsake

lost many a keepsake
and many friends

only love
remains.

who knows?
maybe just one more beat of your gentle wings
and you may well tame a hurricane.

kicking up a storm
poking the vipers nest
shaking the tree

evil intent

those who with great mischief
come out after dark

with mayhem and cruelty
their reason to be

know not the light
witnessed by their craft

nivek Jan 7

you have to sing poet
whenever possible
keeping rust at bay

and in your silence
words are forged
deeper than sound

way marker

persecution is never pleasant
but solace is guaranteed eternal
and joy found along this way
