One Step More

One Step More

I have awakened from a catalogue of dreams;
each, very different from the other;
my mind has envisioned a passing of scenes;
with competitor; friend; and lover.

I stand in awe from my dream’s utility;
its purpose still remains hidden;
my thoughts still dwell on life’

Staring At Reality's Face

Staring At Reality’s Face

I respectfully stared out on the horizon;
thinking about two centuries ago;
upon a land once covered with bison;
slaughtered; with no place to go.

I glanced at some woodlands nearby;
spotting a robin’s nest in a tree;
watching an eagle, take wing and

To Serve Others

To Serve Others

This world has become a kingdom of takers;
most of them think they’re entitled;
others, now rich, become movers and shakers;

I’m the eagle, majestically taking wing;
