Poems

Inch by Inch
To live to love
inch by inch
metre by metre
mile by mile
I walk inside of
the straight and narrow.
My spiritual life
has me bopping
up and down
feeling like a child
bouncing away
while sitting in
a well worn Jolly-Jumper
I walk the streets
and the highways
trying to flag down
A ride away from the crossroad
I'd rather live
in a trailer
than be a cellar dweller.
Let a strong wind
******* over
before that basement
fills with mould.
If I could I would
Trap a moment
so I could live it out twice
no wait three times or four.
Two steps forward
three steps back.
According to the Universe
there is nothing I lack.
Only I'm left to think
instead of just
doing what I do.
Inch by inch
metre by metre
mile by mile
I learn to live in love.
