On Time

He was always on time
for his life…

Every delay, every stumble
Every time he fell
into the abyss —

He was always
perfectly on time…

The Rainbow of Friendship

Arced high above their heads
like a rainbow bridge of hope and joy

The aura of their love
vibrated the air with
the strong energy
of their friendship and commitment…

The Wheel

The wheel goes round and round
simply ever spinning

Yet where it touches with friction
the outside world

It causes the cart
to move along the path

The Hawk

On the sun-bleached fencepost
near the gnarled knot
sat the resting red-tail hawk
in her favorite warming spot

Unnoticed by the passing cars
in her silent vigil there
her ruffled feathers beautiful
eyelids muffling her intense stare
——————————————
I salute the wild hawk
and all the flying beings!

Full

She felt the warmth
seep into her bones…

Like sands in the hour glass
She noticed the light
and love filled her up

Until she literally radiated
with great exuberance

Little Bug

Full of it, little bug
stuck out his chest

As he boastfully
approached the morsel of food

“Manna” that had just appeared
in front of him
