In Waves

Inspiration comes crashing in
Waves they rock reality
A single sound
A single view

Simple light
Simple now

Cascade of then
Cascade of tomorrow
A note of one
A chord of all

Our

We all look at the same sun
Our light, our dark, our moon
Our galaxy
The Universe

The music notes
Our lonely ballads
Mother nature
Her grand design

Stony mountains
Life-giving rain
Fertile earth
Our harvest’s bounty

The gentle connections
The head-on collision
Our rhythm as one
Our rhythm as two

The emotions unfolded
A moment of silence
Our tears of pain
Our tears of joy

Our grand beauty
And our ugly side
Our simple selves
Our complex desires

...

The Whole

I’ve seen the distance in the morning
In the drops of dew
In the reflections of light
The beauty of the infinite

I’ve heard the rhythm of life
In the colored notes
In the vibrations
The sound of everything

I’ve felt time slip away
In the moments
In the best of life
The feeling of eternity

I’ve caught the scent
In the garden of roses
In the cool morning
The smell of the new

...

The Now

I was hiking in the past
I was swimming in the future
I was living in the other
Other than the now

I am not yesterday
I am not today
I am not tomorrow
I am the now

An immersing thought
An intense feeling
Illusion complete
Ego has won

Cursory existence
Timeless reality
The silent watcher
Watches silently

I am not these words
I am not these thoughts
I am not these feelings
I am

...

I Am

The light, the dark
The black, the white
Everything and nothing
All that’s in between

I choose today
I choose tomorrow
I let the colors swirl
Perfect balance

Walk the line
Miss the mark
Go again

Await the day
Seize tomorrow
Feel the beauty
Feel the tears

See the colors
Touch the moments
Smell the roses
Hear my life
