Facing Forward, Pursuing Progress
I’m grateful for these:
Joyous children around me
Love’s capacity
He sat watching her
Dancing with another man
Stunned by the anguish
We walked into the cafe
An older couple entered
Through my held door
Hand in hand
Talking to friends
Amidst the youth
And their frantic keystrokes
Lost to the now
Rain’s changing
Drippy drizzle
To wind blown torrent
And the light moving
Across the sky
Puddles forming upon
Untended tables
Can’t forget
What has passed
Some may wish these
Memories to vanish
For me? No…
I hold them dear
Pain and joy
For that’s
Love’s legacy
Exploring our depths

Light comes from within
That deep-seated place of love
Hard to focus there
If we strive to love
If we seek out gentleness
Perhaps we can find peace
Love is creative
Only seeking to build up
Or its not from love
Awoke with a song,
Mary Tyler Moore’s theme.
Quirky, jaunty and cheerful,
With a tinge of sadness.
A bright point in my youth,
Faded into night.
Such is the way of things;
Joy blends with sorrow/
This complex dish,
Life.
A tactical strike
Evading the defenses
Safe within their heart?
