The Closer I Get To The Sun
( a Quatern )
The closer I get to the sun,
Perfection isn’t meant for me.
I know this as I breathless run
The marathon of Life to be.
So much I haven’t seen or found,
The closer I get to the sun.
As hands of Time are slowing down,
The hands of God are never done.
In seconds left before there’s none,
I’ll be like specks of Saturn rings.
The closer I get to the sun,
Will be a cosmos beckoning.
The solar winds will ever blow.
Together, melt, become as one
When death is drifting in...
The closer I get to the sun,
Perfection isn’t meant for me.
I know this as I breathless run
The marathon of Life to be.
So much I haven’t seen or found,
The closer I get to the sun.
As hands of Time are slowing down,
The hands of God are never done.
In seconds left before there’s none,
I’ll be like specks of Saturn rings.
The closer I get to the sun,
Will be a cosmos beckoning.
The solar winds will ever blow.
Together, melt, become as one
When death is drifting in...

MUSE
Each writer born must have a muse,
Or so I’m told, for if they do,
And if they should, do they know how
To let it in or haven’t found
A way to hear it whispering
Like mine, who tells me everything,
And always watches after me
To heed the way I ramble free.
For years before I touched a pen,
It’s always loved the little wren
That plays, and sees me in this way,
Both in the dark and light of day.
And when I don’t know what to say,
It doesn’t coddle me per se.
In fact the muse is very wise ...
Or so I’m told, for if they do,
And if they should, do they know how
To let it in or haven’t found
A way to hear it whispering
Like mine, who tells me everything,
And always watches after me
To heed the way I ramble free.
For years before I touched a pen,
It’s always loved the little wren
That plays, and sees me in this way,
Both in the dark and light of day.
And when I don’t know what to say,
It doesn’t coddle me per se.
In fact the muse is very wise ...

Awakening
( 20 Haiku 18 )
一
like the wild horses
through drought & wildfire storms
I become the rain
二
one pain left behind
for a moment or a day
I taste the morning
三
wind brings clouds & goes
a year of seasons’ blessings
for each day I feel
四
first year without Dad
the day of Thanksgiving comes
still leaves on the trees
五
to walk in the sand
feeling moon’s tide lick my feet
and not be dreaming
...

Reading At Table As Breakfast Goes Cold
( a Sonnet )
The early morning’s summer drone,
While reading, has me drift and drowse.
With heat distressing nerve and bone,
I must decline my eggs, and browse.
I sip the oranges of the groves
Which from the glass I feel its breeze,
To graze my hair that slightly moves
And cools the neckline by degrees.
And past the window lies the lake
Where long ago, far back in time,
A tiny girl would kneel and slake
Her thirst for mysteries sublime.
Then comes a moment showers fall,
It doesn’t...
The early morning’s summer drone,
While reading, has me drift and drowse.
With heat distressing nerve and bone,
I must decline my eggs, and browse.
I sip the oranges of the groves
Which from the glass I feel its breeze,
To graze my hair that slightly moves
And cools the neckline by degrees.
And past the window lies the lake
Where long ago, far back in time,
A tiny girl would kneel and slake
Her thirst for mysteries sublime.
Then comes a moment showers fall,
It doesn’t...

Me
I don't want to be great
I want to be me
To lie down in the forest
Or dance in the sea
Be I rays of the sun
Or leaves of the tree
No need to be perfect
Just want to be me
I want to be me
To lie down in the forest
Or dance in the sea
Be I rays of the sun
Or leaves of the tree
No need to be perfect
Just want to be me

Just Underneath My Skin
Just underneath my skin
There are a million snarling monsters
All rumbling to get out
Look right, you’ll see an angry eye
Look left, you’ll see a snout
It used to be so shiny there…
With mostly blood beneath my skin
It used to take a microscope
To see those tiny beasts within
But as I grew, my monsters did too.
Every slander cut and loss
Adding to the mass.
My skin stopped being skin. Now it’s camouflage.
There are a million snarling monsters
All rumbling to get out
Look right, you’ll see an angry eye
Look left, you’ll see a snout
It used to be so shiny there…
With mostly blood beneath my skin
It used to take a microscope
To see those tiny beasts within
But as I grew, my monsters did too.
Every slander cut and loss
Adding to the mass.
My skin stopped being skin. Now it’s camouflage.

This is me
This is me
I make no excuses
I have no mould
This is me
I have no fear
Of any judgement
Do not try cut me down
Bruised
Hurt
Grateful
Content
This is me
My voice
Will never
Be silenced
I make no excuses
I have no mould
This is me
I have no fear
Of any judgement
Do not try cut me down
Bruised
Hurt
Grateful
Content
This is me
My voice
Will never
Be silenced

Our minds
You bring
The trust
I bring
The lust
Let's forget
The world
Or the
Distance
Our words are
Enough
Our minds
Knows no other way
The trust
I bring
The lust
Let's forget
The world
Or the
Distance
Our words are
Enough
Our minds
Knows no other way
