those who think they have – don’t ask
those who ask – are cured
so that’s how the blind can see
while those who see – remain blind

2019.03.11: genesis
full of tree pollen
the wind scatters far and wide
the good news of spring
take root and grow where planted
learn to become who you are

white truck with black trim
customized state license plate
proclaims “US N THEM”
the One who died on the cross
keeps on suffering today
2019.01.23: trapped
swirling in eddy
shriveled images of fall
with no place to go
recall the memories of
joyous seasons in the sun
2018.12.29: bounty
scattered rain puddles
attracting large gatherings
ducks, geese, gulls, and terns
taking complete advantage
gift of the present moment
Longing For Water
