Sitting by the window,I pause, as a cool breeze sneaks inThrough the cracksI wonder if the dream, while itWeaves its way to reality,Will complete the circle?A pebble drops into the water,And though the moon’s image blurs,It remains in its placeIn the sky,Moving endlessly but never leavingLife, like a waterfall, cascadesAnd pours into itself,Time inside time,Renewing,…

Kiss the shining face,Of a golden sunflowerFly on the wind,Of a butterfly’s wingsDrink from the dew,Of the morning glorySee the faces of angelsIn the gentle arms of the treesHear the songs of the running waterOver a bed of stonesLeaves rain on cloudless skies,Winds play a symphonyThrough the treesWhile I sit under a maple with leaves…

Everyone has somethingThat keeps themAwake at nightSomehow you haveTo make peaceWith yourselfI cannot tell youWhen to stop caring orWhen the nightmaresWill stopA white carnationTo hideTo hideThe smell of deathEveryone has somethingThat keeps them awake at nightEveryone~Whisper to meLike the windInstinct moonShine downOn my soulFill it withLight and peace~

Dreams of fading picturesPossibility and problemIn my palm,A tree stands,Wizened in the windsOf love and pain,Sorrow and joyThese areMy now,My was,My will be.I seeIn the shadows,The dim light of knowingPassed the sight of the sun,All that is mineSpilling down overThe rocks and sandA maelstromThat I hold in my other hand~

Love is a fierce cordDiscordantHarmonyLife reflectedIn a dewdropIn another set of hours,Minutes, daysWe are side by sideNot separated byAn ocean of timeA circle that cannotBe completeIn this life.In the dreamI can feel the strengthOf your handHolding me stillHolding meStillAnd in the morning lightI know that I cannotLet go.Love is a fierce cordDiscordant harmonyHold me in…

Drawn to waterWe watch, we drownIn the rapidsIn the unknown maelstromTo cleanseTo live againLife is a river –Jump inI want to float to a quiet placeWhere the water eddies and swirlsIn the shade of a weeping willowWhose branches leanDown to kiss the waterI want to sit at the river’s edge,On the wooden bridge and dip…

Kindred spirits meetNot by chanceBut in spite of itA candle dances brightlyIn the gentle breezeHearts skip a beatHow can this be?It simply is…Enjoy the momentEvery breath,Every last rose.~

Drink from this cup of teaFeel the ridgesWhere the cracks markIts ceramic faceHeat radiates from itAs I cup it in my handsI watch the leaves of teaSwirl and float,Dancing with each sip~
