Anew

The sunsets
The ink has dried
The page is turned
And so begins the new
The old seeps into the past
All that is left are the shadows
Of the sins of life
Let them be washed away
With the rising sun

Ode To A Star

Oh you shimmer so

against the velvet night

If I were to be with you

You who gleam so

How colossal you  would be

I would not recognize you little one

here you are but a grain of sand

and still I watch you with fixed fascination

as you twinkle brightly

gleaming so far away

when you are gone

I shall never know

for in my life you shine, 

in my child's you will die

Until the last of your rays 

should light upon this earth

I shall watch you all my life

and in death shall join you.

Arbre

Winding twisting tearing growing

Ever life 

The slow staggering pace

Shaping time differently

Knotting wrapping binding growing

Outward creeping slowly

The Fool

Of joy and laughter
He know his lot
Of wisdom he cares little
Vagabond creature no home of his
Trends with light foot
For the ground is too heavy
For him
The Excuse he gives
On his back is life’s possessions
Ahead the new
No number holds him to a path
On a whim of fancy flight
Looks not to where he’s been
But to the heaven and their grace
Stops to smell a flower sweeter
At his heels dog persist
One wrong step and he is done
