I am the multitudes
With nothing between us all
And nothing to divide
And nothing to remain
when we are gone
I am little more than the stardust in you

3/28/2023 – a haiku
Let the gloom end now
And the sun break through the clouds
Let this shadow end
3/27/2023 – story-starved hearts
Lend me an ear one moment now
That I might share a tale
Sit here here beside me on this bough
Our begging, story-starved hearts let prevail
3/25/2023 – prayer for listening
I cannot but hope
That in the noise
In the shouting
In the cacophonous din
of hateful words
A silence might slither
Like a garter through the grasses
3/24/2023 – for centuries
I’ve walked amongst a million trees
And heard a thousand tongues
And still my heart yearns for yet more
That I might walk and speak for centuries
3/23/2023 – a haiku
Shoots reach for the sun
As the melt feeds deep’ning roots
And all breathe first breaths
3/22/2023 – and nothing else
Let us rest a while
Forget the winds
And the fires
And the rains
And the snows
And the frosts
And the grey
All the quaking
And the blowing
And the yelling
And the fighting
And all the things outside us
Let us rest a while
You
And me
For a moment
You
And me
And nothing else
3/21/2023 – did ever I decide
Did ever I decide upon this path?
Not just this step, but all the ones before?
Did ever I put down in ink the way
I walked and turned to come to here and now?
3/20/2023 – a haiku
What is a friend for
If not to embrace you tight
When you need it most?
3/18/2023 – the brightest shards
In darkness do I ever find
The brightest shards of stars
