Let the music play!
Fear shall not silence our voice,
Join in the chorus,
In action, intent, and song,
Make right America’s wrongs.

Fear of Fall
Watching the sun soar
Lower in the clear blue sky,
I am filled with joy,
It is finally Autumn!
Then trepidation sinks in…
Biting winter wind,
Rolling through the alleyway,
Making spring the fool,
Or so it would seem to me,
And my tissue paper coat.
Like a Spring-time storm
My words poured over the page
Filling in the white
Like a frightening flash flood
After a few months in drought.
Just as abruptly,
My words will dry on the page,
Where they will remain,
Untouched, perhaps forgotten,
Until the next storm passes.
Oh caterpillar
Without a care
in the world
Suspended from silk
Caught like a children’s day kite
Gliding on a
spring-time breeze
I arose today
Before a sweetened sunrise
And I rode the clouds
To the Pacific Ocean
Making faces at The Moon
Bright western sunsets,
Face an empty patio.
It does not take long,
For our laughter to shatter
The night sky into starlight.
See the
World below,
Drift away
Without effort,
Take flight
Into blue,
Skies gilded
Silver and white,
Backlit by a
Golden sun.
Past my reflection,
Beyond the mirrored surface,
Lives another world,
Linking all humanity,
Understood mostly by fish.
Candles all aglow,
Laughter and good company,
Warm Taco Thursdays,
These simple things make moments,
That bring me that hygge feel.
