Walking upon the shore
Sunlight landing upon my face
My skin warm, nicely so
Friend talk, warmed hearts
And children yet again taller
Than a moment ago
Evoking parental wonder, and triggering
Eternal frustration for children
Chaos Tamer
Looking at how we’re evolving culturally, and how humanity engages with itself, for good and for ill.
Walking upon the shore
Sunlight landing upon my face
My skin warm, nicely so
Friend talk, warmed hearts
And children yet again taller
Than a moment ago
Evoking parental wonder, and triggering
Eternal frustration for children

p style=”font-family:"”>How do I relearn
<
p style=”font-family:"”>To dream boldly
<
p style=”font-family:"”>To reach for the stars?
<
p style=”font-family:"”>
<
p style=”font-family:"”>First look skyward
<
p style=”font-family:"”>In the night’s sky
<
p style=”font-family:"”>Gaze upon Orion’s belt
<
p style=”font-family:"”>
<
p style=”font-family:"”>One can’t reach
<
p style=”font-family:"”>What one cannot see.
<
p style=”font-family:"”>
<
p style=”font-family:"”>Vision creates
<
p style=”font-family:"”>Boldness
Beginnings moving
Forwards towards middles, motion
Ends; begin anew
I watch a hummingbird
<
p style=”font-family:"”>And wonder about time
<
p style=”font-family:"”>Are we only allowed
<
p style=”font-family:"”>A specific number
<
p style=”font-family:"”>Of heartbeats?
Compassion and grace
Linked together as they loop
Spring’s birds appearing
