Poetic Fragments
I listen
for the familiar echoes
with
expectations
of a
voice…touch….feelings
not to be met
now
i long
for those times
passed
distant memories
so close….
but yet
so painfully
far
i long for
your touch
….a smile
your touch
our connection
But until then
i’ll just continue
to
wait for you

early morning
sunshine, daydreams, and birdcalls
an old priest rambles on

Images
and
Art
clear to mind
if only
hopping along
logical lillypads
not so much a matter of importance
spaces between
but the objects
referred to
in distance….and passing
all good things
sharing space and time

Dented Saint
In chasing shadows
a crushing of anxiety
a building of uncertainty
the only certainty-
-are the pains that will have to be endured
their hurt will be without end
their suffering without end
their peace will be crushed down to fragments
their resolve will be broken
no worry
…..parts of you will be taken as well
gradual building of giants
small things with exaggerated shadows
elongated phantom forms
magnified sounds and imagined torments
the enormity
of our burdens
overwhelms
your pain
but
my empathy
I see no other choice
but to carry……
truth be, I would know no other way

Two Worlds
Ahead
only the sounds of happiness
children
of different races and creeds
freely mixed and played
under a shaded canopy
trees stretching into the sky
their youthful minds
only aware
of green grass and games
behind
the sounds and mixed conversations of the adult world
echoed on into the afternoon
