Hearing, listening
for
the knowledge
the answers
I need, I seek
It may be tomorrow
or
the day after that
They’ll come
the knowledge
the answers
will appear
I know
Just like that.

The Knowledge, The Answers

Watching, Listening
October 12, 2021
Watching,
Listening to the wind
Wind thru
The holes in my heart
Left by the likes
Of you.
No more
To be the same
Never more, never more
I tell you
As the melancholy wind
Blows thru.

Quiet
September 7, 2021
Living in the
Quiet
Listening to the solitude
Feeling all emotions
Surface.
Maybe tomorrow will be
Riotous
But for now living today
Where all is
Quiet.

Hoping for
Listening
To
Drops of wisdom
Dripping knowledge
Into
My life.
Up to me
To
Drink deep
This gift
I’ve been given
Too.
Make the best
Going forward
Into
A world I’ve built
And living
Too.

Kaboom, Kaboom
December 31, 2019
Quietly, softly the breath intakes
Listening to the heart explodiate
Kaboom, kaboom.
The legs take their feet for a walk
While the arms hold close
Hands caressing the softness
Of love seen by the eyes
As the ears listen
To the quiet heart go
Kaboom, kaboom.

Golden Leaves Swaying
November 2, 2018
Golden leaves swaying
On a November breeze
Floating, cascading down
Landing on soon to be
Frozen, winter ground.
Woods are silent, hushed, listening
To the still quiet as a hunter lurks
Waiting to kill in the midst
Of golden leaves falling, raining down
Upon barren, dying ground.

Listening To The World Pass By
October 2, 2018
I sit listening
To the world pass by
My heart is open
I do not cry.
Many words are spoken
Without a sound
Never enough love
Is passed around.
I will beckon, I will try
To get the attention
Of the one in charge
Of this world
I’m listening, pass by.

Oh Teddy Bear Green
March 9, 2018
Oh Teddy Bear Green what have you seen?
The ups and downs, the lows, the highs.
Oh Teddy Bear Green what has become
Of the love we knew when we were young?
Oh Teddy Bear Green I held you close
You held my heart.
Oh Teddy Bear Green my secrets told
To your listening ways
Not a peep was said no trust betrayed.
Oh Teddy Bear Green
When I fell you cushioned me
When I feared you stood between.
Oh Teddy Bear Green you comforted me
When no one else seemed to care
You helped me, you’ve always been there.
Oh Teddy Bear Green have I become
The one you saw and guided me to be?
Oh Teddy Bear Green what secrets are kept
Beneath that loving Teddy Bear?
Oh Teddy Bear Green

Herald The Coming Storm
November 27, 2015
Herald the coming storm
Dark of night enveloping
With mighty might
Crossing over land
Thundering
Making creatures cringe
While most don’t understand.
Here I am
Waiting, watching, listening
Holding on
As the coming storm
Keeps coming on.
