2019-02-01 – For Colette

Saturday, February 2nd, 2019

She’s quiet about her love.
but it fills the forms where she lives.
Each room ordered in a vision
that reflects her inner self.

I run up to her and I hug her
and she replies, “Here…”

“Here, with these rooms that I share with you,
here, I give you what I am.
Here, where my eyes and hands
have past over things ten-thousand times,
be here with me in this,
my inner garden.

2019-02-11 – Faith and Hope

Tuesday, February 12th, 2019
 
Whatever people believe in
   as acts of faith
are just the reflections
   of what they hope.

2019-02-04 – The Flow

Sunday, March 10th, 2019
 
Go with the flow.
   Let the moment to moment impressions
      be the river you are in.

What stops you?
   The need to ask, "What does it mean?"

That urge to bring
   your logical mind in
to pull the summation handle
   and to render up an answer?

But, as you do,
   you step out of the flow,
into the cognitive
   and out of the now.
