He was on purpose,
as he headed off
with singing heart
and whistle on his breath
Intent carried his dreams
in a satchel of loving,
nurtured visions who
see fulfillment
in all his fullness

What is it about flowers?
Roses and violets, lilies and orchids
daisies and pansies and geraniums and daffodils,
luscious reminders
of lavish abundance,
each cactus blossom a delicate flame
every buttery mullein bloom
a study in perfection
Explore in the garden, even in fall
signposts of color mark your path
through God's prosperity thinking
and sweet attention to detail

Here in the circle within
circles, he weaves each one,
nosing his way through,
the sacred songs boost him,
keep alive the spiral dance
sending him with prayers
and entreaties on his journey…
The bear heads for his long sleep
Dream, dream again,
another vision, oh brother

Little fuzzy dog,
black and white and grey
eyebrows dance at me
intelligence of dark and light
gold and shadow together,
smiling with the eyes
fully alive,
ready to chase the bouncing
ball or even the tattered stick

"Focus on the positive,"
she used to say
and by the way,
life kept on in full round
"It's all good, " they asserted
and she chimed in,
it rhymed then
and zen, and then, and zen again
upon the carpet of green lush,
life sweeter by full flavor
tintillated all the senses
