Leaf becomes shelter
When two get caught in the rain
Nature’s umbrella

I watch the sun set
In a brilliant blaze
Under a sky of stars
I get lost in their haze
Twilight engulfs
My most secret thoughts
As golden rays bury
My mind, distraught
I am captivated
By glorious, rays of light
That take me from morn
Into the night
While I sit here and wonder
What is to be?
When my eyes finally close
What is it I’ll see?
Will my time on this Earth
Be nearer the end?
Or will I still see the light
As thoughts transcend
Higher, like the swing
Which knows no bounds
I fly, for I am no longer
Planted, on the ground

A silhouette against the sun
The wind takes over sails
As pirates slumber in the night
In hopes, the wind won’t fail
Lest they be forever adrift
In a sea, oft unforgiving
Battering waves, tossed about
Yet, it’s how they go on living
The life they choose, no matter
What others, of them, may think
They’ll stash abundant treasure
As they watch the others sink
Into the deepest oceans
Lost, in a battle of greed
Thirsty for blood, they conquer
No matter how much you plead
They take it all, there’s nothing left
Your ship, lay barren and wasted
And you cling to life, but lose the fight
Your own blood, you now have tasted

Cardinal’s warble
Sings of a joyous springtime
With trees in full bloom
