Meaning Of My Words
You are searching
O dear readers
Please understand me
I am what I am
Going to say and
I am sure
You are not prejudiced
O my dear you are here
To grasp to understand
What I am going to state
You are to make out
real meaning in this real life
The life is yours
And it has full of meanings.

Chances Of Testing It
Slow to face challenges.
Yet quick to defend faith...
Long after dismissing chances of testing it,
Has passed to grasp its strength.
Only proves one chooses to remain in control.
With a delaying done to value the benefit,
Of witnessing beliefs one professes to keep...
In daily prayer.

Marvel
Life streams
across her moonlit hair
catching the vagrant breath of Gaia
Turning violent
ever evascending storms
over the evening shadow in my heart
Thoughts glow
growing always perfect
within the grasp of my understanding
We listen
to the shivering leaves
and wonder at the delicate marvel

Framing The Sun
with your hands
you frame the sun
you stare at it
you know what
happens next
too much light
too small a grasp
too much sun
too small a mind
do you remember
how the balloon
burst? i shiver
to the sound of
your explosion
there are shatters
of memories
left on the ground

A Thank You Note
For a moment
you were a butterfly.
I tried to pluck you from a flower,
capture you, keep you.
hold you in my hand
to relish your beauty,
I failed, of course, hopelessly,
your wings sprung open
to escape my grasp
but that freed me too
and so I write this little note
of gratitude to you.

On Line For Life
your life is on line
machine still traces
records your heartbeats
displayed on monitor
electronic proof
witness you still live
your life electronically pulses
beep beep beep beeps
with faint pulsing echo certainty
grasp it with certainty
take it and live
in moments of hope

A Good Thing
A sudden win
unexpected cheer
So here I begin
into the future I peer.
Failure is behind me
success is straight ahead.
But there are roadblocks to remind me
of the life I lived instead
Was success always in my grasp?
Was I afraid to try?
Or is this momentary lapse
of a failed life that's mine?

Mediterranean
1
A bright red boat
Yellow capsicums
Blue fishing nets
Ochre fort walls
2
Sahar’s silk blouse
gold and sheer
Her dark black
kohl-lined lashes
3
A street child’s
brown fists

Ocean Dreams
This melody
Takes me
To days when I hung my hopes
On the ocean
So grand and full of possibilities -
Infinite.
But I forgot
Its ever-changing tide
Its waves crashing harshly
Against the shore
What a fool I was,
Trying to grasp this ocean
In my cupped hands
But I remember
When
The water
Smiled

The best things in life are nearest Breath in your nostrils, light in your eyes, flowers at your feet, duties at your hand, the path of right just before you. Then do not grasp at the stars, but do life's plain, common work as it comes, certain that daily duties and daily bread are the sweetest things in life.
