Layer by layer
They go back
In time,
Descending through eras
They can carefully
Climb.
What whispers
What stories
Does the wadi
Impart?
Will their souls see
The footprints
These rocks know
By heart?

Fly by
The moon
And kiss a new star
Goodnight.
Fly by
The sun
And let its light touch
Your mind.
Fly by
In play
To draw a blue skies
Outlined.
Fly high
Today
And know I’m not far
Behind.

In the game of
Standing out from
The crowd,
There is little more distinct
Than the
Distinctly
Indistinct.

In the cracked curl
Of earth
Baked in sun
And ancient salt,
The Dead Sea
Awaits a
Flawed flow of
Redemption,
Or a whitened end.

Go below
The surface
Of the things you know
And into hollows
That are there, but
You have not yet
Allowed
To grow.

The days stretch on
In sun and shade,
Highlighting the contrast
To the lifespan of
A butterfly,
Its new wings splayed
In the warmth
To dry.
And I wonder
What the ancient rock thinks,
In contrast,
Of the human
Lifespan
Fleeting by.

Won’t hold back
An all out bloom,
Fully pinked
By soul’s perfume.

From aqua blue
To deep hue
The ocean runs
Deeply through
The soul that breathes
In me and you.

He was so small
I recall,
How did he grow
Suddenly so?

Pause, and
Let your mind wander
In waking reverie
To the places where
Tomorrow’s seeds
Are sleeping
Underneath the snowy
Ground,
Wrapped in the arms
Of memories
Of days
Long passed
And others
Yet to come.
