Groundhog Day

Who can distinguish night from day
In the twilight of history?
Does this dull light signal nights end,
Or only the last light of day?

Some believe the sun will soon rise
To reverse the flow of darkness,
While others hear the dying screams
Of their Destiny Manifest.

FrogSong

My sleeping soul 
Awakened with a smile
When a Frog sang     Memory
Of its unique music
Echoed through the rain
And endless cloudy days
To many years past     Youth
Innocence    The world’s and mine

“Unable for so long to smile”
```
Unable for so long to smile—
Tense facial muscles ache,
Yes one’s heart has grown
Three fold.

The body relaxes
From previously unthinkable
And unknown tensions.

“The gift was not given”
```
The gift was not given
For obligatory purposes
On either side.
Twas given denoting
A temporary abundance
On the part of the giver—
Who knows,
Later the tables may be turned.

The Spirit of Phoenix – A Chant

Rise ye Spirit from the deep,
Spreading invisible wings for vast flight—
Sing out loudly the love of life
And peace on earth of our song.
Higher, higher do soar,
Showing your invincible might.
Bring eyes to those that are blind—
Banish our worldly thoughts,
Whisking the sleep from heavy laden lids.
We look without sight—
Our senses are dulled.

Empty Garden

Yesterday, the thought, if imaginable,
Would have been quickly dismissed.
Yet today, I know and can feel
A complete Emptiness in my head;
And at this moment, begin to wonder
Whether I should attempt to fill it
With something new and meaningful.
