You Do Not

I see beauty In many things
that you do not
I feel feelings in things
that you do not
I love in ways
that you do not
I understand
in ways you do not
I have passions
you do not
All of these things
are mine alone
You cannot see through
my eyes, or hear through
my ears.........
Such a shame I cannot
share them as i see and hear

Hello Autumn

As i go for my early morning walk
i sense fall in the air, it is a slight bit
crisp. The smell is that of fall, folks
burning leaves as they are starting to
drift to the ground. It is refreshing from
the heat that will be rising in a while.
Enjoying it for the moment but somewhat
sad not preferring barren trees or plants.
As i walk along i shudder to think of winter
i am cold natured and prefer the spring
and summer. The cold winds stinging my
face and ears. Early morning walks become
later and later. The snow is beautiful and
doesn't usually stay but a day or two.
But for now i will enjoy the beauty of
what is around me. There is beauty in
Autumn and winter as well, with but the layers
of clothing i don't feel as free.
As i start on my second mile i must remove
my sweatshirt, it is warming up all to soon.

Look Up

Look up, get lost
in the universe
pictures in my
mind only seen
by pictures
Hubble giving
stunning photos
thinking about
Curiosity transmitting
back to earth
black holes,
northern lights
just look up and
wonder
the stars don't shine
if it isn't dark

Rock Man

Down by the ocean i stood and
watched this man stacking rocks
Ever so gently he would put odd
shapes, one small, one large.
It was if he was defying gravity.
After a bit he used cola cans as
well. He would take some down
and start again, never using the same
pattern or rocks. They stood as tall
as i am. I watched for the longest time,
he never lost patience if one would
fall. The look of concentration and
serenity upon his face put a smile
on mine.
