I Love You Even More
And today I return
As I stand by the frozen waterside I
give thanks for the moment I
touched you
Even though getting so close to you I
can see your imperfections
the vines of poison ivy, the age chips in your bark
Oddly so they
make me love you
even more

Goodbye John Lennon
The moment I am alone is the
crying time
I want to be strong and let go but I just cry
I want to be strong and let go but I just cry
I found a turtle this morn then
tapped it with a branch as I smiled at my great find
To my dismay it was dead
Now it drifts past me with moss upon its head as I
stand on the banks helpless
I cannot save it
It is beyond my reach
It is beyond my reach
It is dead
I cannot remove this turtle
from my view
I can look
elsewhere
but I know it is by my side no matter which direction I choose to look
but I know it is by my side no matter which direction I choose to look
Why did it die? Why did I see this today? What does this mean to me?

Till We Meet Again
In this hot summerlike day in April 2002
I feel completely renewed
as a new green leaf pushes itself out to greet spring
a honeybee buzzes around my toes
a black Lab barks in the distance
I can hear the chiming songs of a lark and sparrow
the silent spring waters twinkles in the noontime sun
Honeysuckles whisper “till we meet again.”
Now I am revisiting you in 2011
… yes, we sing again
Thank you.
Now I am revisiting you in 2013
…yes, we meet again
I give thanks for sharing this song of spring while I sit here the doldrums of fall
on the cusp of winter.
Thank you for this brief moment
of reprieve.
