In the midst of it all
At the center
Of streets
Big or small
Rain or shine
Grab a seat, hold on tight
Take a spin
On life’s Merry-Go-Round.

Merry Go Round

A Path To Walk
A Path To Walk
Take a stroll in open air
Amble one step
And then another.
Spot a marker
Stay the path
Upon this great Earth Mother.

Glinting Sigh
Amsterdam; Photo: Inbar Asif
As the light
Breathes the day
Into soon coming night
And the city spreads
Molten gold sighs
Of beauteous delight,
The sky paints
Warm reflections
Of the time just gone by
Onto glinting canals
Rocking calm lullabies.

Casual Pomp

In a massive hall of pompous busts
And naked marble edge
One must
Take time
To rest one’s head.

When shut-eye weighs your lids
Yip patrol
Comes on call
While the third wheel can perch
On the sill
‘bove the bench.

Textured Conflict
Photo credit: A. Asif
The contrasting textures in this photo leave my brain and hand conflicted: the frozen icicles look almost cottony, inviting touch like an inverted carpet of melted candles or a dense curtain of just-washed fleece … and yet my brain knows they’ll be hard and cold, forbiddingly unyielding even as they slowly drip their surrender to the silky — though no less icy — flow below.

Potentiated Fog
Photo: Dvora Freedman
When life envelops
What will be
In cloaks of misty
Mystery
And fog,
Hold on
To the soft promise
In the droplets
That infuse the air
With fractionated light
And hope
For verdure
And potentiated growth.

Ode to Pests
Photo: Paul Dinning
For the pests
Who won’t rest
In their quest
To infest:
I suggest
You divest
Lest
I’ll wrest
Back my nest.
I don’t jest
It is best
As would surely attest
The unblessed
Who’d transgressed
And I had ‘addressed.’

In The Shallows
Photo: Na’ama Yehuda
Life can happen in the shallows
Of the day to day
In the ebb and flow
Of small steps
On wet sand
Of tidy tides
And ripples
Lapping breaths
And sighs
Of surf.

Satisfaction
Photo: Atara Katz
My niece took this photo of a boy and his dog several years ago in Charleston, North Carolina. Then and now, it feeds my heart and gladdens my soul. The ageless, timeless, wordless friendship it conveys, the togetherness that needs no explanation, the calm connection of this shared experience, the gentle trust. I can almost feel the soft undulation of the water under the bow, the relaxed balance of both child and canine, the subtle breath of breeze, the deep contentment of the moment, the beauty of the day.
