For My Sons

While floating down the River of Life,
Do not allow yourself to be forever drawn
Along with the current of popular thought,
For it is not necessarily Truth.

Occasionally search the eddies and backwaters,
Sifting through the mud, sand and stone.
Rest often, alone, on its sun drenched bank,
Viewing the turbulent flow as one removed.

Birthing II

With each new contraction chaos
Further shakes a society
Overpopulated with fear
And addicted to the image
Of a glorious history
Seen as manifest destiny

Unwilling to wake from this dream
Some attempt to halt the coming
Of something beyond their control
And ability to understand

Dream Fragment 28

I stood alone before the moon
Waning in the sun wondering
If my shadow would disappear
And then pulled the hands of the clock
From my pocket burying them
Under the rocks without number
While digging and planting this field

“I want to taste your love”

I want to taste your love
As together we become one
In the warmth and security
Of each other’s arms and bodies.

While two days will be eternal to us
We shall experience all in total.

All will end, but only in time’s scope,
For it will remain forever in our hearts
And minds as we pass beyond time.

Children of the Sun XIV
```
With the expected birth
Into the solar family
Of another child
Siblings will again shift
To drift further away
From the place of their birth
And into the comfort
Of newly found orbits

Self Portrait

Somehow caught in the sands of time,
Consonants and vowels still commingle
To slowly waltz across the page.
In fleeting glimpses of the Eternal,
This child prodigy of plus forty
Wanders the deserts day and night
Endlessly scratching black on white
In full dress rehearsal of Life.

For Brenda

       Poetry
Is the fragrance
	Of each moment
       Inhaled
	During each life
       Exhaled
	Toward a future
       Envisioned
	Now

Welcome the Divine Physicians,
Freely offering their healing powers
By pouring Gold Rejuvenating Liquid
Into and on this physical vehicle.
