    I’m laying still under the shade of nature’s green curtains The wind caresses me with her gentle touches  It’s as though she’s whispering “slow and steady.” These words journeying to my soul as my lungs take in their air doses a little bit at a time

    There’s a new phase at every turn  It’s a new transition that catches you unawares It’s the casual conversations that change quickly to career plans It’s the lovers’ chitchat that’s overridden by a toddler’s cries It’s the ridges formed from wrinkles on the smooth planes of our faces Alas, it’s the minds that once thought ...

    I tried walking on water But like the Titanic, I sankSailing under the ancient ocean I felt solemnly sympathetic  I tried flying without wings And like a stone, I fell Lying flat on the ground  I saw a cross made of bones.   I tried to travel to space But I couldn’t find the Causeway Floating among the stars I heard my angel beg, ...

    Midnight I ventured outside Among luminescent wavelets of moonbeams   Midmorning I walked through  Fluorescent ringlets of moonlight  Midafternoon I fell into Dreamtime I could not stop the cascade  I could not stop the blizzard I stepped upon an avalanche Of pure white moon-snow
