sunlight’s downward path
as I wander past the fears
ah, cherry blossoms!
I dig computers

sunlight’s downward path
as I wander past the fears
ah, cherry blossoms!


more sunlight each day
and the grace of warmer days
cherry blossoms bloom


the daffodils’ gaze
dancing on the near-spring breeze
while the jays chatter

Met a really cool guy today. A former Navy nuclear power program sailor, just like me. Though he is quite a bit younger.
Swapped stories of our respective experiences, which I enjoyed. Yet I often worry in those moments that I’ll become like the subject of Bruce Springsteen’s “Glory Days”, a relic, trapped in the past. Grave fate, for me, at least.

out into the night
a beacon on my sidewalk
crisp air reminders

star filled night
reaching heavenwards
caressing God’s face
