At Home in Hope

Inside a dream 
       Images and faces
       Melt into Oneness

Sunrise touches the lake
Shadows disappear
The mountains admire
      Their own reflection
While nasturtiums slow dance
      To silent and soft breezes

Children of the Sun XII

If they are unwilling
Or unable to accept
The opportunity
Of the gift now offered
It will be presented
Again and yet again
As it has time after time
Following the agony
Of climbing back to face
Their current dilemma
And again be confronted
By the fear of losing
Individuality
In the ocean of Oneness

Through Pisces to Aquarius III

             III
The seeds of empty promises
Soon sprout a shallow happiness
That flowers as despairing rage
In those benefiting the least
From material convenience.
Cities violently erupt,
Becoming harbingers of fear
That quickly spread throughout the land.

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

The Child’s Bark

Lurking as a shark
Is the dog’s empty bark.
It has pierced your soul
For tis love she demands
Not gravy in the bowl.

She is not so unlike us
In many ways,
For like a child
In her innocence she plays.

Loons softly paddling
Under a mostly full moon
Begin mimicking

The boisterous blathering
Of the inebriated

Dream Fragment 11

Between blanket and moon
Exhausted stars vibrate
On this excited flesh
Burning over passion
Fulfilled and expectant
Sensing an angel’s touch
From digits descending
Through heavens reflection

Relationships change
Between student and teacher
When autumn transforms

Green to gold departing leaves
Feeding the earth      Becoming
