Dark Night

In the dark of night
I walk, no moon
the sound of silence
the stars so bright
the balmy air so
fresh. The smell of
earth. I feel his presence
I talk a while in silence
Taking a deep  breath
not wanting to leave
this dark night

Experience

Finding yourself
not in your mind
not in a rational
response
Once you experience
you need no other
confirmation
One's own experience
in the journey of life
rather than in the
rationalizations of
logical thought

Nails And Boards

Nails and boards
thorns and blood
sounds of sobs with
each stroke as it
is driven deep
into the flesh
wrapped in white
left for dead
A plan understood
by one for you
and I

Sunny Faces

A single bright poppy
smiling to the sun
going to sleep at
night to wake up
to smile again when
the sun returns
flowing with the breeze
regal, waiting for the
others to join in the
sunshine to smile
along side
