Nothing

There’s nothing quite like nothing;
nothing will ever be.
If I were to be nothing;
nothing would be like me.

But nothing’s a world all its own;
so is it nothing’s father;
or maybe it’s nothing’s home?
Don’t even figure; don’t bother.

Nothing

A Winter's Day

Sitting at the dinning room table,
so many winters ago;
it almost seemed a fable,
as I watched the falling snow.

For it was half a century of years
since that mid winters day;
with other memories, laughter, and tears,
to wipe that memory away.

But, nevertheless, it still existed,

A Valentine Gift

I lapsed into sleep; though still awake;
and reality’s being, hastily flashed on;
totally confused by reality’s mistake;
it seemed I had entered a new dawn.

I found myself in another place;
not quite realizing where I was;
somewhere, within thought’s space;
I had become there, just

A Paintbrush And Canvas

All of us strive for, and seek perfection;
we seek a good match in all we do;
In seeking a mate we want a connection;

An Island

An island in the midst of a limitless ocean,

but I come from the very same dust.
For all material, both large and small,

A New Wind

There’s a new Wind blowing;
the evil wind’s all gone.
Away, havoc is going;
and it’s time evil moves on.

Evil laid waste all around;
his reign of terror descend;
all wickedness is drowned;
and now, his reign is at end.

Its so hard to start all

An Energy

An Energy approaches;
its almost always near;
my territory; it encroaches;
it oft embraces fear.

It brings about all Good;
yet holds a certain dread;
it brings about all that could;
and all that might be said.

An Elixer; a cure for anything;
and all that comes about;
encompasing all;

A Withered Tree

A withered tree is very old;
it wasn’t born that way;
the flower’s petals unfold;
the beginning of decay.

Must we always scorn,
beauty that’s become,
with age, now adorned;
it’s beauty seems undone.

Wisdom comes from age;
true beauty, from inside;
recognized as a sage;
