inhale
what is missing?
the element of man,
please don't wake me from my slumber
day dreams.
REALLY?? Get a Life!!

day dreams
mind wandering
skipping along the lake
pebbles skimming surface catching
morning

morning
rise a new dawn
light slowly skimming eyes
opening vista of new day
marvel.

marvel
at our stubborn
inability to
accept each other as we are
today

wow, joy...we synchronized again...and with the same last word this time! love your message.


marvel
that it's monday
already work beckons
though a national holiday
today

today
with sun shining
and cooler air out there
it will be a good working day
I swear

I swear
my cough must ease
my lungs must get a break
perhaps I need to eat more steak (:
to heal

to heal
I need to rest
my body needs focus
must try to get off this work horse
one day

one day
I'll breathe easy
taking in the beauty
on a gorgeous day like today
magic
However long the night, the dawn will break.

surprise
a humbleness
descends behind my eyes
a sadness rises from within
today
However long the night, the dawn will break.

today
souls coming close
again bearing witness
to the mourning song of those left
behind

the magic veils
symmetry in motion
moving silhouttes rehearsing
stunning.

due time
