As night encroaches with its cold eternity
All creatures snuggle down to wait the dawn

I dip my pen into the pool of life
And let it paint some pictures there for me
It shimmers in the glorious midday sun
And words begin to flow so pensively

Across the portals of innocence
High in the sky of desire…..........

Watching the reflections of that ball of fire
As it sets so quickly … ready to retire…..............

Desires and needs floating in an ocean of unreality
Turbulent now …. awaiting the calm ahead….........

Allow the thoughts to pour like rain
Across your windswept mind…...........

Rivers of tears make patterns on my cheeks
Dropping like rain from clouds of recollections…............

Fording the white water
And dreaming your dreams…

Run around the room .. no fears
Laugh and if you need .. cry tears

Giving love to us so freely
Makes us know so very deeply …

To watch kaleidoscopic leaves of fall
To revel in the snow of winter’s squall…............

A tear is a droplet of emotion
Encapsulating your hopes and fears …..........

Live the peace that stills the night
Know that you could still take flight…...

What deep and lovely passages?
Within your heart do sigh

Making that step into the unknown …
A chasm of worry and despair…..........

Listen to the mother’s tears
as they melt death’s chilling swirls ….........
