How does time spiral on itself
Even as it unfolds to expand
Outwards?
How do the faces that your mind recalls
Rekindle scenes that take you
Backwards?
And how do those refill your hand
With all of what you’re working
Towards?
Maybe it is all as it should
As long as tender hearts reflect their kindness
Onwards.

You may wish to give new meaning
And claim lies as your own truth,
But even if you abrogate
Alliance
And turn away
From honor, sooth,
It does not undo long history
Nor turn the facts into
Fake news.

Hold my hand
And we’ll go
Up the hill
As we sow
Seeds of light
For the thrill
Of just watching
You grow.

Surely all would admit
Something here does not fit
King or not
No one ought
To require this bed
For their camped royal head.

Optimistic in nature
Does not mean roseate
For reality may
Introduce caveat
Of the need to remember
Many times of ill fate
While never forgetting
The good we can create.

Echium judaeum (Photo: Amitai Asif)
As you walk in the mountains
In wild meadows and deserts
O’er Rocks
Towards the Sun,
Hear the whiskery stalks’ whisper:
“You have seen,
I have grown,
Now be gone.”
Fun fact: The blooms of the Echium Judaeum change color after pollination.

Half-wildling
Half-tame
She sometimes
Knew her name.
One moment she’d hiss
The next she would purr
To allow or dismiss
You from stroking her fur.

A trick elicits grins by design
But the smirks are clear sign
Of those who won’t admit
The high cost of deceit.

There’s a path in the park
Lined by mulch from trees past
So that every step presses
What had grown,
What won’t last.

Be it under
Or over
Be it florid
Or plain
It is best to not whelm
With ill-deeds.
Just refrain.
