clouds sound off…
cloud talk
I guess that clouds may skirr,
they are so far away,
they do stir
and frolic in the sky,
they may whir,
who hears the sound of clouds?
betimes they clap!
withal, they may purr…

we made our time…
our time
Remembering,
the good time,
the quiet time that lasts so long,
we had our time,
we made our time,
we pushed our time
to be the days and nights,
we filled our time together,
and now I give such time
as two could share,
I make more time for you.

where do they go?
Seasoning
No one really knows,
but so many think they care
when the summer goes,
and yet, no one ponders “where?”
The seasons are quite real,
their cycle is quite strong,
they have unique appeal,
and each has its own song.

The Book of Days
The dawn’s early light can be pleasure enough for the whole day.
There are words enough to tell the story of “the temptation of day to come.”
It is my delight to write some of them for your delectation.
Lazing…
Arched across the vault,
these vapors linger,
barely nudged by breezes of the night,
these lazy smears of dawn,
they do not hide,
nor reach for higher sky,
but mark impending day…

thinking it over…
think about it
We’re walking, slow.
What’s he thinking?
What’s her fleeting joy?
Maybe they ask the same of me.
Are we really different?
I’m bigger,
they have growing to do.
I can see out the window,
they see so many things
for the first time.
I remember last week’s party,
they will re-learn the fun
of blowing out the candles.
I can ride a horse,
they can see a horse where the chair is.
I wish I could stay longer,
they will welcome my return…
…but for now, we climb the bosky trail,
hand in hand, we laugh together,
we chase that squirrel with our eyes,
we wonder:
what’s he thinking?
what’s his fleeting joy?
maybe he’s asking the same of us.

the birds we do not know
knowing
I know being
and I know anticipation
and I know expectation,
and nonetheless I know surprise
and I know remembrance
and I know fear
and I know wonder…
what is it that I do not know?
what remains to be not unknown?
…which slowly singing bird
will pick my window
for her morning melodies?
