But the woods crave our loneliness…
The woods crave our loneliness…
Trees we once climbed and swung from,
Bound with our sorrows and joys…
They have become companions
Disrobing us of our worldliness
Until we again become purple shadows under
Their leafy wings.
Primary Aspiration
I want to meet each moment
as a friend.
My presence is needed.

Pass And Fail
When I default to blame,
I fail to see
“de” fault may lie with me.

That Sad Little Bird
Reblogged this tender poem from aroilinpain.wordress.com
Alone in the dark,
he cries out for relevance,
love, being unfamiliar.
Sunday reflection . . . . I just helped him cry.
Would that we were all this wise.
There was a four year old child whose next door neighbor was an elderly gentleman who had recently lost his wife.
Upon seeing the man cry, the little boy went into the old gentleman’s yard, climbed onto his lap, and just sat there.
When his Mother asked what he had said to the neighbor, the little boy said,
“Nothing, I just helped him cry.”

Post Graduation Math Lesson
Things didn’t add up.
When she finally did the math,
she realized someone
had done a number on her –
a costly lesson, painfully learned.
