Wheels are Turning

The wheels are turning
All 24 spokes with them
I realize it is no use Fighting
I must agree in my heart to give up
So there is no struggle
Inward peace
Leads to healing
I have heard
Wise Men Proclaim this
All of them must have Grappled
To arrive at this Conclusion

September Day

Sitting outside
On a  quiet September Day
I take in
The Sights and Sounds
A chime
Dancing with the wind carefree
Flowers biding their time
Birds Chirping
The Rays of Sun
Hazy and Warm
The Smell of Fall
In the Air
Soon
Leaves will turn Red
The Color of Love

Zen Living

Walking in the Woods
I Take 
The Less Taken Path
Moss covered Tree Trunks
Wet leaves
They all are there
Like they have Been
Forever
I pick up a rock
And underneath is a spider
With legs squirming
No I don't want to kill It
The little Creature
I cover it gently
Its all very quiet after the Rain
Me the Birds
Trees Spider and the Rock
We are all one in that Vastness
Made from the same Elements
Different Mix
Alive or not
We all become Dirt with Time

Love Stands Tall

Love Stands Tall
Among all the Ruins
Catches My Eye
And Stirs up Emotions
Why is it That I Seek You
In My Moments of Despair
Look for Strength
In Times of Weakness
My Emotions Stretched to the Limits
Give Rise to Illusions

Summer's Gone

The Grey Sky
Is Filled with Patches of Dark Clouds
Not moving
Stuck Like Dirty Rags on Hooks
There is no Wind
But Its Cold out
Driving Home
Windows Up
I miss the Sunshine
And the Warm Wind

My Little Secret

With You by my Side
 My Little Secret
I am so Blessed.
When the World is Dark
And I need some light
I turn to Your Smile
When the Nights are Cloudy
Your Eyes are the Shining Stars
When The Way seems Lost
Your Love is the Guiding Light
When it is Cold Outside
Your Touch Warms my Soul
Tucked away Deep in my Heart
You are All I ever Need.

Night

The Sky Turns from Red to Pink
With the Setting Sun
Stars start to Peek
Birds are Home
A Plane Streaks Across
Leaving a Jet Stream
The Day is Winding Down
And I am out
Waiting for the Fireflies
The Quiet Bearers of Light
Flashes of Hope in the Darkness

Illusions

It is what it is
And I know that
But is there not a chance
A slight chance
To undo what has been done
And if it is all an illusion
Then break the Illusion
And be Free
Of all the Desires
Wants and longings

Looking for Solace

Bright Blue Sky
White Sands
Sounds of Waves
Are All Memories
Of Time spent doing nothing
I am suspended
Like an Animated Character
Between Summer days
And Winter Nights
Spring and Fall
Looking for Solace
Looking for You
