dogthink

too much talk about politics
and it's all poo
I'd rather just bask in 

the sun...
how about you.

adrift, the blues

set adrift
by the blues
and
the void
that cannot
be filled
by little
minor
moments.

winter reach out

winter reach out
sky
parfait
tree savor
the flavor
of each
brand new
day.

so silently

so silently
i think
i pray
from life's
not so
sweet woes
i run away.
in quiet time
a peaceful spot
oh life and its
forget me knots.

Spring

ah,,,
the sweet taste of
spring.
soon happening.

the child sat

the child sat on
her mother's knee
and asked what
happened to  her
family.
the mother explained
that there used to
be animals here
back in the time
that the sun shined,
clear.
there used to be waters
fresh to swim.
before the world
grew quiet
and grim.
mountains so high
deserts of sands
lush tropical paradises
the child did not understand.
she asked how did it all
end up this way.
her mother answered
life left

when the
people gave up and
turned away.

a second

a second to change
that which was said
that which was done
that which we
dread,
a second to say
the love that never
dared
to escape from
our hearts,
nor

go
anywhere.
