REALITY

Tinkering With Reality

I envy those who can work with their hands;
repairing or bulding something new;
meeting and exceeding circumstance’s demands;
doing complex things; I couldn’t do.

I find myself lacking in physical dexterity;
although I can still hammer a nail;
our life is a blending of

Happily Never Ending

We view life as a book, movie, or play;
all of which have an ending;
doing our best, to live day to day;
death is the night, descending.

Death is the verdict; we cannot conceive;
dreaming only of joy and laughter;

is nostalgia our lack of belonging.

What is that attachment to home sweet home;
permanently etched in our mind;
especially in old age; when we’

Whispers Of Silence

Sometimes we sense thoughts on our mind;
that seem to come from a distance;
whispers of silence; from a kingdom, divine;

My Best Foot Forward

Why is it; we hurt the ones we love most;
the ones we most want to protect?
