Children in a warm womb
we talk out our lives
holding warm against the world
and its unfeelingness

Warm brother and sister, friends
we share, in love with all that we are
its easy to be friends beyond roles
holding each other’s feelings warm and whole

and now, Helen O.

How rich it grows
the light seems to never lessen

Diana C.
Carol K.
Beverly S.
Suzanne S.

I can’t believe them all
each one some incredible wonder, joy.

I feel like Siddartha wandering among life’s lures
eagerly passing thru … touching each thing openly
no hurry … just learn and see
whose love, whose real … what I feel.

She said, “You like to walk on the edge?”
“Yes, I do, … Yes”, I said
and I looked across the space and into her eyes
and fell on over to the other side

Its by the edge that the strong survive
its on across that the dead come alive
she said, “You always seem so open and so real.”
and I thought, “I’m trying to stand all that I feel.”

Electric eyes, she has electric skin
I want to love you, I want to win
Love’s easily my hardest game
its oneness is an invitation to pain
and yet…and yet I open
again and again.
