Hermit at the Crabshack

           
           
           
          thank goodness for another day;          
    I ultimatly drink of the glass half full with gratitude;          
    even as I notice my friend on the edge of the sidewalk;          
    nature is  beautiful, even through a hardship,          
     that has sailed after coming in;          
       maybe it was never meant for me;          
                  
       love overflows, through one;          
        whether or not one is able to surface for air;          
       yes; a totally tough reality;          
        truly in the present moment,          
        taking it all in;          
           
         to admire another's joy from afar;          
        that couple, at the park;          
          those kids running with bliss;          
                    
          different perspectives;          
         life itself is truly the prize;          
        though suffering is the gift wrap;          
         it's hard to see past the paper;          
         I've never had much tendency to,          
         pick it up and read fine print;          
           
           though I appreciate the words;          
         I admire each woman's beautiful face;          
          through disgruntle or grace;    
     
     
       whether or not one's shoes are laced;    
       if you choose to wear them in the first place;      
       liberal is my vanish point....
