Beauties Of The Universe

I have known, you’ve seen 
Beauties of the universe 
Soft, gentle
And pristine. 

May they flow 
Thru tomorrow
Out to all 
Directions in-between. 

May their
Gentleness and kindness 
be all we feel 
All we need.

I Live, I Die

I live, I die 

in-between 

I laugh, I cry.

Wondrous

I’ve heard, I have seen
Things so wondrous
Just can’t believe.

Trees growing
living being coming to life
in the spring
bearing fruit summer
in between falls to winter
when they seem to be
sleeping.

One wonder to behold
to be seen
may be ordinary
but
if you stop, look and listen
miraculous it will become
wondrous it will seem.

So Divine

Seek and you shall find
Heaven, heaven
Oh so divine.

Lose and you are lost
To wander in a quandary
So complex no ending
Will be yours or mine.

But in between
Live a life free and joyful
And the universe will
Come together
To combine, both worlds
So divine.

I Know The Difference

I know the difference
Between frozen and tropical land
I know light is not dark
And dark is not light.

I know the difference
Between morning and evening light
The difference is obvious
They are not alike.

But the in-between is hazy
Not easy to read
A conundrum it seems
For not darkness nor light.
