March 5, 2010 - Poem about Saying hello, Love

The one I see

So hard to introduce myself,
start a conversation about simple things
learn the ways that people join hearts
touch minds, swap smiles, be warm with each other,
and all I want, is to gaze into the blue million miles of your eyes,
that’s when good souls know the grace of each other
but I’m fearful of feeling - like a cold spark,
reeling in the stars toward the gravity of you.
And will you even see me?
Mouthing all these, these tiny, silly words
too soon, too much, too late, no doubt -
and blood is rushing these good intentions,
into a world that is spinning,
and everything is blurring into one.
Hello, are you that one?

March 4, 2010 - Poem about Cosmicity

There is something about the way of things.

Yes
you could deny
these slipping nights
but at your peril.
Counting stars does not
bring the sky any closer
and there is no meaning
in the inevitable,
You cannot slow this down.
Let it all go. Accept the flow.
Yes, you may be trying to see
the edge of the universe
the end of knowing
but even here,
something
happens
next.

February 27, 2010 - Poem about Cosmicity

Echo

Surely you know
you can’t talk
to a stone
unless of course
you are the wind
and nothing changes
anything
unless you ask it to
confess
your cause -
connect yourself
to what you seek
so near the end
where whispers blow
upon the source
shaping contours
and who it is
you’re searching for -
unless of course,
you are the wind
and on you wend
like dustdrift thrown
like spirits flown
like feelings shown
and on you go,
my friend.
