Poems about Reality
The Separation
In the beginning, all was One;
all aware of each other;
The Father of all, beget a Son;
and then, each sister and brother.
Time doesn’t live everywhere;
it only lives where it’s born;
It isn’t allowed where we care;
it’s usually regarded with
Mountains Of Truth
Truth is a range of limitless mountains;
which none have been able to climb;
an elusive energy, flowing from fountains;

Bullet
I gazed at a photo of empty faces;
taken a great many years ago;
all, standing, dutifully, in their places;
Spring had erased all fallen snow.
A family photo, for a church album, to be;
