Evening Time

A billion years we have come
To embrace only a day,
And already it is evening time--
The twilight's seductive passing
From moment into mystery.

Another Year


Another Year

The end of another year...
The moments pass,
Our lives change
With the lessons of time. 
Some dreams end,
Others we did not find.

The Emptiness


The Emptiness

The emptiness beckons me,
The desolation of untrod wilderness.
I want to follow
Unaware of the distance I must go
To find the edges
That bound'ry me.

The World Without


The World Without

To the world without
I was always discontent,
Flighty,
In my ever shifting bent.
But in me a spirit yearned,
A seeking to return,
To find again
The world of wonder
It remembered of,
To search the secret 'bodes
Where mysteries hide;
To somehow circumvent the mind
Whose habits bind,
The world of Man
Whose fears debilitate and blind.

Sunday Fishermen

Sunday fishermen
Casting thoughts to sea,
Adrift in silent reverie,
Hoping the morrow affords
Another dream fill'd sea.

The Green Lane


The Green Lane

What fears did they know
Who walked this lane of green
Those far-off years ago?
What passing joys interposed
The pains that hardship surely posed?
What scant possessions
Did they love that robbers stole
Along this lane of green
That I now so wondering stroll?

A Moon Silver'd Sea

A moon silver'd sea
A remembered me
A forgotten me
A changing shadow
On a silver sea.
