An hour,
Earth power,

Goes dark.
And in that
Global moment
Of unity,
We light

once upon
once upon a time,
the earth was young,
a new planet born,
new lives, begun.
so much hope,
now so much
confusion,
the creator sits,
asking
is it all an
illusion

the dogs of war
we stand by your side,
we take the pain,
we block your path,
from bullets that rain.
we do not ask why,
we do not turn away,
we never know
if we will see
the end of the day.
we are the dogs of war,
wars that should not be,
but as long as they are,
we are in the same company♥

to sit and....
to sit and philosophize,
when i am flawed
and far from wise.
but learn i have,
and learn i still
do.
there is a whole
lot of life
we are blessed
to sift through☺♥☻

at night when we all
crawl into our beds
what manner of thoughts
run through our heads
thoughts of laughter,
happy times, to sleep
or lost in torments
endless and deep

having been
having been on planet dearth for decades, i have witnessed the behaviors of many people. what has stood out is that certain spark of a deeper place, that dwells within animal lovers. their ability to rise above the limitations of their own species and truly "see" the depth, beauty and magic of other beings.♥

not just go along
to those who risk their entire being
to fight against the horrors that
they are seeing
to those people we raise
a glass
to honor such valor
and much needed
class♥☺☻♥

i am just one dog,
there are so many
like me,
starved for love
and human company.
you genetically
created us, made
us how we are.
then you abandon and
abuse us,
why did you go so far.
we are not hairy toys
to be created and
forgotten.
all we do is live for love,
while many of you
humans are just plain rotten.

we live for the pack.
we play we run,
we rest together,
when our day is done.
when one of us is ill,
we pick up the slack,
bringing food and comfort
until good health comes back.
we chase our prey,
we have to eat.
we do this to survive,
no easy feat.
but love we do and
care for our own
if you are born into
our pack
you are never alone

depression
depression steals your life away,
depression is a thief.
depression sometimes goes away.
and when it does, you get relief.
but then it comes back, baying loudly,
pounding on your door.
depression does not like to lose,
so busy, keeping score.

by some
by some it is considered emotional greed,
or feelings unsated, an overabundance
of need.
for others it is thought of as a balm
for the soul,
that keeps us going, that keeps
us whole.
but whatever love means
or is, to you
if you can receive and give it
it will come through ♥♥♥♥

the path we walk

is cobbled with stones
some are jagged and sharp
a few, finely honed
but together, we tread,
we keep our stride
although the road is
ragged
we stand by each other's
side♥♥♥♥

hues and cries
our road is white
our road is red
so many more colors
up ahead
deepest ebonies
... somber blues
verdant greens
so many hues
perhaps
perhaps when we realize the vastness of our universe, we will cherish the precious "smallness" of our earthspace

every day when we awake
every day when we awake
we do not think about bodies
or images we cannot shake
we do not worry that our children
will be burned alive
we just keep up with our routines
...the usual jive
yet we complain, we whine, we
bemoan our fates
yet there are many parts
of the world
who would eagerly
share our plates

I look at you
I look at you
And I see that Ride
Your face and Heart hoping
Doing things in Your stride
Now miles have Been driven
Mistakes, bumps And confusion
How much is real
How much, Self-delusion

you sometimes see
the part that you do
not like about

then you decide
if it is something
to fix
another fabric woven

He looked into her eyes
He looked into her eyes, really looked...plumbing depths real and imagined. He excavated behind their liquid exteriors,
peeling away that which he feared, these fears unarticulated, barely acknowledged.
His gaze remained fixed. She sat, quiet, her guard down, her walls up.
in the vast space of silence between them, their hearts beat together
in the vast space of silence between them, their hearts beat together

To hear such sounds
From freedom sung
As the world was
When all had begun
To hear their music
... As it was meant to be
Swimming happily
In the sea

believe in your being,

the path is cobbled
it is filled with stones
many times you feel
as if you walk alone
but when you take kindness
and compassion into
your hearts and hands
you walk with many others
across these rugged sands♥
parasol
love is an umbrella
that shelters you from
rain
even though you can
still feel it
love overtakes
the pain♥

one day
one day she awoke
as if from a dream
things were not
what they once seemed
no more animals hunted
no wars being waged
then reality woke her
by her alarm clock,
she was paged

that seemed too long
you wondered how
you could hold on
and now you wish
even those hard times
could last
as you look back
at what went all
too fast
