and excitement, of joy
and sorrow…
Happy Birthday to all!
The Belly of the Bush
From my window, I see
into the belly of the bush
grown through the years
far taller than my dwelling
——————————————–
That blue tinged bird
in the belly of the bush
eats right there near my kitchen
In the spot where squirrels
frolic or meditate
or chomp away on fruit from the bush
Ignoring me all the while
Face of the Divine
And so, the one reflects the other
in essence, if not circumstance
bound by threads of common theme
and modes of seeking truth
—————————————–
I saw there
in the perfect light
your face in all
A visage of Divine
uncompromising beauty
Tasty Day
All the day was yummy!
Every little moment
chock-full of experiences
and thoughts
He savored the
multitude of flavors
Yum! Tasty day!
Tapestry of Love
Our Friendship
is a beautiful cloth
woven by the dance
you there me here, me there you here
and connected
by threads of love
all these years
A tapestry of lightness
joy and gratitude
accentuated here and there
by a few small dark lines
for dramatic definition
_______
We are the weaving
not the loom
Life Chef
A chef of Life, he is
a concoctor of rich flavor
tasty and extraordinary
Every tidbit, every moment
is worth savoring
Each morsel of Life
is filled with the love
from his strong heart
And would please
even the most discerning palate
