The sun.
The shade.
The tree.
And me.

If a hollowing sorrow
Catches your breath in a
Hold
And then folds
Like a snail
Into what can’t
Be told …
Let the richness
Of you
Spread like gold
From a long ago story
Foretold,
Like the waves’
Gentle touch
On a morning’s
Threshold.

Walk about
The quiet earth
Where water used
To rush.
Meander in
The silent dunes
That nestle elder
Paths.
Wander into
Times long past
That witnessed nature’s
Wrath,
And let the calm
Like ancient balm
Seep through your
Whole
Into your soul,
To nourish you
With hush.

The sun’s reflection on the water.
Energy in small waves stored.
The light
The breath
The exhalation.
Life’s strumming flow
Its own reward.

Evening gathers to call
Flocks to watering hole
And to glimmers of fish
In the sparkling bowl.
Palm to palm
Whispers calm,
As the pond
Drained but bright
Refracts sun’s glinting light
From silvery fins
‘Til a good night.

Cherish every moment
Left
Of light as
Suns will set.
Hold on to the
Deep rewards
Of daylight breathed
Through soul,
And saved.

I will go to the seashore
Where the waves touch the sky.
I will go to the seashore
To kiss the day fond goodbye.
I will go to the seashore
Where the boats come on home,
And the children still play,
And the sun’s last rays roam,
And my soul sings with the surf
Where it has always belonged.

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

Tilt the world.
Let the ocean,
Pour
Itself
Into your heart
In molten
Light.

If nothing else
You can bank
On some peace
Come day’s end.
On a breath
By the water
When a ripple
Extends.
On a sigh
Of the chest
Born of awe
Seeped with ease.
You can count
On some peace
Come day’s end.
Me, too, please.
