The Thinker of the Thought
Reflections of the mind
in a life beyond earths green meadows,
My, how a season’s dramas pass by
like wind driven clouds,
And how congested the thinker of the thought.
Oceans shimmer like diamond starlight,
Mountain tops hide in silvery...
I Created a Religion
I created a religion. It began when I was young. I observed that in every facet of life there was a guru. As a child my parents seemed to know everything. While playing in...
Love Landing
Something is happening
something so real
so good, so true.
What we have always longed for
what we thought would never happen
what we feared may be lost forever
is becoming manifest right here
in our own hearts
in our own lives.

Difficult Women
As I stand at the foot of my ill father's bed
I see a man who ran a wash and asphalt plant
At the age of 12 years old
I am in awe of him
What were you...
Three Nature Poems
Blur
Thrilling painting in the sky
Too marvelous for words,
Pen can’t hold back, so here I go,
Rapturous… incandescent… my eyes are blurred.
Starling
If I could wish a wish
I think I’d know what it’d be,
To be a starling...
Foundation of Grace
Being new in the world is a fabulous thing
Enter with grace and continue on that basis
Allow the world to help find ways of being
It's ok to strive to raise yourself up
Step softly and scan...
Poem on the Meaning of Time
Dates are a form of language
The conquest of time
Stuck and frozen in boxes
Knowing the unknown
Is this always an act of ignorance?
Can knowing the unknown also be an act of Humility?
Is time ever knowable?
Sure it...

Light Being
You are a being made of light,
Crafted by the holiest light,
Fragmented and sent forth,
A cosmic prism within time and space.
Drenched in experience you are now,
Sometimes clouded by illusion,
While a light within you burns,
Always knowing...
The Quickening
Something is coming
Do you hear it?
Do you see it?
Do you feel it?
Something is coming
Know it
Love it
Be it
Something huge is coming
sending shock waves ahead
rippling through us
ripping like a love hurricane
shaking all our structures to pieces
Nothing...
Musings about the Other Side
I was lying in bed. The light was on. The day had mostly passed. My elbows stabbed the bed while my hands held something I was reading. Then it happened.
At first it was some...
Tofte Sunrise
It’s cold outside as I prepare myself in the darkness.
Staying in bed would be so much better I think.
It can wait, the sun will come up again tomorrow.
Then a voice comes to me, why...
Sweet Forgiveness
As Hansel and Gretel walked down the path of life
They grew wiser as a result of those around them
Once trusted friends, now frenemies in life
Once fooled, now twice as much on alert
The light bulb...
Two Weeks’ Worth
Hoping the storm would forsake us
yet cautious, we prepared
for two weeks' worth of essentials.
Taking the chance,
we took a last glimpse ‘round
the feast of these fields,
that for decades had blessed us.
Coming up from the muck
and...
