Hearts

All I want is Your Heart
Pure and Simple
And the Stillness in It
Everything Else that is
Between Us
Happens to Be
Means Towards End
And I am Content
To Wait
Till You and Me
We come to That
When Nothing Else Matters
But Our Hearts

Walking on the Beach

A Shooting Star
Streaks across the Sky
Dying in Blazing Glory
Fiery End
Lights up the Night.
Walking on the Beach
I lift up a Twig
And toss it Carelessly
Into the Waves
There at the Horizon
Where Fire and Water Met
A New Love is Born.

Buddha

Looking thru the shopping window
I see Buddha statues
In different shapes and sizes
Serene Expression
Sitting Cross Legged.

The Buddha is on sale
But not his Wisdom

And in the reflection of the Glass
I see people Rushing
From here to there
In pursuit of some Pleasure

While the Buddha Sits
Doing Nothing.

City Life

On a Sunny Morning
The Lake Shimmers
Waves carrying
Little Diamonds to the Shore
A lone Boat in the Distance
Drifts Aimlessly
The Horizon is Warm and Fuzzy
Seagulls go about like they do everyday
But I have to give up all of this
And return to my City Life
Shiny Cars
Bright Lights
And Fancy People

Promises

I looked for You at the Foot of the Rainbow
Only to Find  Footprints
There was a Sweet Smell Of Love in the Air
Nostalgia Every Where
Standing Still
I heard my Heartbeat
And felt Yours
My Eyes Scoured the Horizon
Not a trace
Only Memories
And the Promise of a Tryst.

Stone Faces

Water Falls of a Cliff
Crashing into Rocks Below
Everything is being Chiseled
The Shapes speak To Me
At Night
I close my Eyes
Hear the Water
See the Stone Faces
My Heart is Heavy
I Sleep Soundly

In the End

Lying down Flat
I look up to see
The Sky
Stretched Blue.
Clouds Floating By
Give an Illusion
I feel the Ground Move
From under Me
( Like Earnest Hemingway Wrote)
And Even though this Planet looks Flat
I know it is Round
But how does it Matter
We all Fall off the Face of the Earth
In the End

The Real Problem

I am not looking for an Answer
For That does not Solve It
I am Questioning the Problem itself
I am Beginning to Wonder
What would Life be
If there were no Problems.
From Now On
Everything is Acceptable
You and Me
And all the Love Lost Between Us

Desires

Sitting in Dying Sunlight
The Flames of the Campfire
Are Flickering
Much like our Desires
I want to reach out
And Touch You
But like Always
I keep it All In
Your Smile
And the Look in Eyes
Will have to do for Now

Fields of Flowers

Fields of Flowers
Glistening in Sunshine
You walking among them
Like a slow motion Movie
The Joy on your Face
Makes me smile
That is how I would have Spent
An Ideal Life
But between Work and more Work
I am struggling to find a Balance
