Driftwood Daydream

Fifty-seven winters
I have perched on this coast,
To watch the tide rise up
Only to fall again.
I gawk at you bipeds
Gawking at me in awe,
When my outstretched wings touch
The distant horizon.

To be dealt with as we will.

In the habit of our ways.

A Reminder

While watching for signs that confirm
The birthing process has begun
Those who chose to return again
For personal transformation
Soon remember their commitment
To not only be a witness
During the coming transition
But also to be of assistance
To any and all on the Way
Out of the dark   Into the Light

The seventh wave violates
This once peaceful shore,
And as the chaotic tide rises
Our secure center trembles and quakes
In the cold grey dawn of decline.

Remember the Love

Cherish all the tender warmth
Of small, thoughtful considerations
Shared in moments of joy and sorrow.
Acknowledge the good times,
Yet be thankful for overcoming the bad,
Always seeking extended periods
Of Peace and Serenity.

For the lonely existence

Of her solar family
