call on waiting
same old jingles
repeating as I
come to realize
the blessing of
waiting not able
to do anything else

Lighter Than Daylight
*
let’s not forget
the improvised song
falling from above when
you stop to meditate
wings flapping
nervously sounding
almost metallic
that clear it seems
lighter than
daylight

Dancing Thoughts
*
approaching the day
with dancing
thoughts
to linger in god’s
presence
light
that stays with me
at night
and in my slumber
.

New Landscapes
*
I left the valley
green and humid
where wind was but
a rare guest for
the coast to be blown
away by crosswinds
sunlight and waves running
around with my wet suit
catching waves long
trips to the unknown
marine depths now I find
myself in the desert away
from things experienced
before synced in with my
passion for the new
landscapes of the spirit

The Tenderness Of The Sky
*
it’s the tenderness
of the sky
laying his shroud
over me
in the morning that
opens my eyes
to gratitude
glimpses of love
peeking through
as little drops left
after the rain
on the heads
of grass blades
.

The Sound Of Listening
*
the sound of listening
intense in the desert
morning rising to beauty
sitting in the sun
waiting for silence
to fill me from within

Now I Lay Me Down…
*
it is right by the side
of the road the Cathedral
In The Pines Cemetery
as if you could just roll
off the side of the road
dead and ready to lay
where there are no fences
but some more noise to
endure or is it a reminder
when the sun hides
at sunset behind red
blood colored clouds
.

A Secluded Place
*
silence i miss
and a shaved head
a secluded
place and a bit of light
into this
confusing night
.

The Next Silence
*
I gather my thoughts
bending a little
away from the wind
that clears skies
from darkness of clouds
the air is gold
colored tiny speckles
dancing away a tip
a tap one tip more
fingers tapping with
closed eyes
a dance suspended
draw me closer
to your rhythm before
the next silence

clouds have covered the whole
day slowing down my rhythm
I walk as barefoot on carpet
placing words carefully
dozing off a bit hanging
poetic moments behind my eyes

there’s a pace you need
to let your soul reach where
there will be no more war inside
of you nor anger where you bow
kindly and poetry welcomes you

in your house when you shut out

I’ve tried to explain
how the white around
the words are so important
to me those silences I caress
on paper breaths spaces
make the poem
