The mesmerized moon swings
circles round rainbow clouds,
seeds cradled in their nests wonder
what time it is,
asking the raindrops
which way, which way.

… seeing …
See thru the glass of existence,
below the surface of a lake,
underneath the rock.
Know that the chickadee is as the mustard seed…..
small but full of words without words,
time that is timeless, smoke that is not fire.

… tales of tails …
It must be wonderful to have a tail…
to issue comments from the back of me,
and wave away irritation.
To send tidings of trust….
and messages of wisdom to the stars.

… summer …
Green tomatoes wait the call to red
the sun filling them up like
chilled glasses turning warm.
Berries sit in green lines
slowing taking their turn
at the dark side
knowing full well that
I shall eat them.
——
… eternity …
shell songs take the cake
when it comes to the
sands of time…
waves join me in
their melodies
taking me ever
further into
night…
while the
cat
says
no
——
…the bird…
…the bird sits
in the tree
trilling to the sky
and not
to me…
She lives now
for herself
and i believe
she has a point…
…life…
Life is a pie.
Not a berry, not a peach,
not a cherry out of reach.
Eat it up quickly,
saving some for midnight
when time stands still,
and shadows wait to
eat you up.
