“Tomorrow – a new day”

Tomorrow—a new day
To be dealt with as we will.

A new life’s door is before us,
Yet we open yesterdoor
Without thought
In the habit of our ways.

Children of the Sun VI

Again as before
On the third planet
Thinking inhabitants
Began to emerge
To begin the journey
Countless generations
Of distant relatives
Had previously taken
Through multiple stages
Of individual growth

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

Through Pisces to Aquarius VII

           VII
Techutopia promises
Love that can only emanate
From the mind and not from the soul.
This love of things or position
Is pornography from the dead
To a dying humanity.
The new scriptural messages,
Read from the pulpits of the church
Of our perpetual progress,
Are broadcast through the media
All day and night, all night and day.

Well Traveled Road

You tell me
That by walking the same road,
You see more each time.
Possibly. . .
Minute details appear
That your mind was unable
To comprehend the first,
Second or third time.
But does that logically erase
The possibility of another route?
I wonder what an alternate path
Has to offer?

Atlantis Revisited
```
All these deluded attempts
To dwell, either in past
Or future illusory times
Of lives importantly lived
Only fill diviners’ coffers.

For the New Born

Early morning unfurls
Initial rays of sun,
To touch and feel our world
From distant horizon.

O Newly Born!
Conceived of Love,
Into life you come
This eternal morn.

May you reach the stars
In an abundance of light,
Being as free as you are
Until sunset becomes night.

               II
Hiroshima!  Nagasaki!
The bomb explodes inside the mind,
Imprinting the horror within
Each living and unborn psyche.

Communication
```
There were those we could not
	Communicate with then.
There are those that still
	Cannot be reached,
Yet some with which
	We are together
For their knowledge
That Communication transcends death.
