i live & relive
what i should've said instead.
all in the hope
of showing you
what's going on in my head.

perhaps then you'll see
me for who i think myself to be.
instead i must learn
to trust you
with your perception
of me,
my imperfect prose,
& maybe my deception.
- - -
i pray someday to find
that for which I yearn.

the wheel of karma nevr stops

running like a hamster
tumbling round & around
or
stuck on the outside
flattened, misshapen
following the roll

the wheel of karma nevr stops

are we all
hooded
modern day mystics &
present day bards
in an echo chamber
repeating the call
?

morning strolls
along dew-kissed roads
to greet the rising sun.

slowly sipping hot coffee
meeting the misty dawn
& scattering seeds
for the song birds
to continue their melodies.

french blue, shear drapes
forest green dotted with colors
of the flowers.

napping in and under treeshade
where we too enjoy
fresh baked bread
& herby jam.

no beginnings
& no endings
just relentlessly
unpretending

my cottage core dreams ;)

light of my life
and song of my soul
you're never too far-
at least that's
what i'm told.

games of telephone
made to selectively hear
those who call
but the message is distorted,
incomplete at best.
maybe it would be better
to put the voicemails to rest
someday soon,  
we can all read the texts.

light shines through
onto all that's true

no will nor worry
can conceal nor carry

son of my sons
you're nothing
without the Sun

who rises in the east
so the moon can
shine in the west

no matter your
frays nor feigns
he always knows best.

soul of my souls
you're nothing
when alone

together we gather
and for all
a happily ever after.
