the man in the mirror   who can he be
game on    emerging winners and losers 
the mind of one speaks   to the mind of one
all are in sync    all are losers too
for we meander in wisdom   which no one crafts
all of knowledge     already is
word of honour    silence of the heart
where there is love   let there be light
span of the void   creation
the more we are   the less we know

marigold in the wild   the fox's eyes
 smell of rain   first lightning streaks
the old shed    squeak of a door
when azure returns    absent clouds
more wildflowers    tomorrow's sunshine
the smile of a child    and running feet
arms of a mother    lovingly outstretched
the wind blows   tall grasses dancing
across the field   mountain peaks
far from our dreams   a horizon

unshod after
 a day at the library
 research hours
left to mesh of tomorrow  
exploring 

she always wore
her mesh stockings on Fridays
for happy hour
a barista takes time off
 to go bar hopping

slipping off her shoes
in her empty house
she reaches for
a glass of merlot chilled
savoring her blessings

the picnic spread billows out
flowered table cloth

peppered fingers licked 
a chow made by children's hands -
chopped green tomatoes

abandoned church -
the way trees blossom
any which way

overgrown grasses 
a dirge of war torn days -
when the people fled

bricks and stones -
sturdy enough to hold
tightly emptiness
