Garden in bloom –
Fear and selfishness –
Wither in the heat
walking in the woods…thinking –
100 billion galaxies in the universe –
each with 100 billion suns –
I take the next step
Up and up a raptor rises –
Red tail hawk surveys domain –
Golden rays glisten on feather –
No wax to melt, no Phoenix insane –
Invisible updrafts –
Lift my soul –
Fill my heart –
Disappear
You are a dog with big brown eyes –
Who watches me in all my guise –
You have your schedule that I know –
When you bug me it’s time to go –
There’s excitement in your eyes –
When I don my pants at sunrise –
The visions in your head are clear –
Open fields full of deer –
Oh how I wish I was a dog –
A midday nap against a log
Mr. Calico the feral cat –
Soaks up the sun on the mat –
He moves with the wind –
Then sits for awhile –
In tune with it all –
With his Cheshire smile
Early Morning Sunshine creeps Through crack in temple door Ah-Hah
