~my sons’ guitars~
~play through me in waves~
~they are my life quest~
~our music~
~making more of me than I am~
~feels pretty damned good~
~just for a minute~
~seems like everything is okay~
~then I come back to earth~
~take a quick look around~
~ah hell it ain’t~
~Haunting Me~
~thinkin’ ‘bout endings
~about going away
~unanswered questions
~they are promises broken
~they are lies left unspoken
~they are haunting me
~down in the city
~‘round a fire left burning
~flames of society
~maybe hands in a prayer
~maybe blood of the slayer
~maybe haunting me~
~round in the chamber~
~a far random target~
~bullets come tumbling~
~surely messengers running~
~surely vengeance forthcoming~~surely haunting me~
~death on a thimble~
~we been taking it easy~
~any way we can get it~
~on a fast road to nowhere~
~on a death horse we go there~
~on a haunting me~
~lady~
~you are~
~a vision of Sunday~
~a river of falling~
~a chant in the evening~
~a dry well of wanting~
~the church of my haunting~
~church of my haunting~
~church of my haunting me~

~feet rooted in epiphany~
~eyes riveted to her boughs~
~bated breath~
~senses tingling~
~spirits lifting~
~we are going~
~we are flying on the ground~
~stepping through clouds~
~your hand in mine & the next~
~& the next~
~The Heaven Tree~
~the night the Heaven Tree appeared~
~we were excited & enamored, ecstatic
~beneath its mantle of star leaves~
~lone wanderers o’er its earthen root~
~feet to path & spirits soaring~
~wildly alive in the ebon shade~
~the night was a prayer to kneel~
~the Heaven Tree whispered to us~
~secrets of the Children of the Universe~
~the storms and rainbows of their days~
~those before and after soon~
~our spirits were filled with light~
~timelessness, eternity~
~standing ‘neath the Heaven Tree~
~hands reaching, others holding~
~a circle of love on the ground~
~faith we were lifted~
~into the boughs of the Heaven Tree~~
~spirits kissed upon the lips of gods~
~eyes embracing the vast community of humankind~
~delivered of moment, gifted to be~
~on the path beneath the Heaven Tree~

~Meditation 37: This Point Forward~
~as if yesterday was not~
~& no thought of the morrow~
~allow me to feel~
~stand in a sweet & cleansing rain~
~a twinkling wink of time~
~aware of the immediacy~
~of choices made~
~be responsible~
~for words & acts~
~made in the moment~
~accept consequences~
~penalties & rewards~
~survive to step forward~
~into each moment next~
~as if yesterday was not~
~& no thought of the morrow~

~Meditation 36: Every Child~
~it’s in their eyes each~
~epiphany~
~children~
~whose truth is~
~faith & love~
~hunger for learning~
~anxious to celebrate~
~each moment of life~
~look there~
~what do you see~
~oh yes~
~what do you~
~feel~
~in the vast~
~expansive universe~
~I saw them see me~
~gift me~
~clapping their hands~
~singing my song~

~Meditation 35: Rainbow Exaltate~
~children may just~
~influence rainbows~
~by their blessed existence~
~enhance its hues~
~a pure mixture~
~kaleidoscope dream~
~visage the all~
~beautiful & equal~
~specific & beyond~
~a synthesis of peace~
~the stuff they are made of~
~creates a gladness~
~the ecstasy to be~
~of them yes~
~just to be~

~Meditation 34: Trust~
~what we expect from others~
~without question~
~is often that which~
~is most difficult~
~when asked of us~
~confidence in expectations~
~guardianship~
~protection~
fulfillment of obligations~
~based on faith~
~loyalty should not be expected~
~but offered first~
~as established certitude~
~a basis of conviction~
~assurance~
~willing ourselves to open~
~anticipate goodness~
~is the beginning~
~the groundwork~
~for freeing ourselves~
~from doubt & distress~
~lends credence to our mein~
~fears fall away~

~Meditation 33: Seven Directions~
~east of morning~
~evening west~
~& the cross-tie~
~north & South~
~eyes lifted~
~to the sky~
~a little bit o’ heaven~
~feet forward stepping~
~that earthen path life~
~& the seventh direction~
~spirit breath~
~culmination of all~

~Meditation 32: Higher Learning~
~deep in their eyes~
~wild & wonderful~
~creatures of earth~
~knowing curiosity~
~feral gleam & watchful mien~
~we might separate ourselves~
~for a moment from a life~
~spent forgetting~
~unlearning~
~what we were~
~from whence we came~
~mindfully & respectfully~
~share that moment with them~
~likely to be reminded~
~received joyfully~
~blessed with~
~an unconditional offering~
~a confirmation of love~

~Meditation 31: Dos Penumbra~
~standing the shadow~
~of near morning~
~contemplating the day~
~standing the shadow~
~of near evening~
~confusing at first~
~a distracting sameness~
~as in death & birth~
~where the sun & moon divide~
~trade shadows~
~one might learn~
~cloud reflections~
~on the face of a mountain tarn~
~a distracting sameness~
~the dynamic of their existence~
~that they are independent~
~would not exist as they are~
~one without the other~
~spirits in the mirror~
~ghosts in the trees~
