Early morning mist,

The pond’s reflections
bring to mind some of my own
including all the ripples
and distortions. It’s good to
discover I’m not alone.

Sun lies lazily
upon a carpet of grass
as cardinals leisurely dine.

In order to beat
the traffic we left at six,
but apparently
so did everyone else.
Next time we’ll leave at noon.

Waiting to present
a talk on finding your voice,
I fear I’ve lost mine,
but I remember to breathe…
Then I recover mine.
JDG
Everyone wants to
be heard, but only a few
want to really listen.

Two old friends walk together.
Sometimes they speak,
sometimes not,
but they’re always connected.
JDG
It takes courage to br real.
It feels safer to pretend
to ourselves and to each other.
Thus we hide behind our masks
feeling safe but unseen.
JDG
Those birds had a lot
to say as they flew by,
but I couldn’t understand
such elevated talk.

After the sudden rain
this magical creature
appeared at our door.
Whether it bore a message
or was a message,
I don’t know, but its silent
beauty spoke to my soul.
