Poetry by me

factoids:
A Country Rock band worked 'Keep Dreaming' into a song.  No, the band is not famous . . . yet!

Other than the orchid, the photos are of Peggy's Cove, Nova Scotia.

The poem 'Ancient Warriors' is roughly the shape of an arrowhead
Small Miracles take place in all of us.  We have to hear them.

 Keep Dreaming  audio
When you think you have it  
in your hand
Keep dreaming.  
When it's going better  
than you planned  
Keep dreaming.  
No matter how  
things may look now  
They won't and cannot  
stay the same  
So stay ahead of every game  
By dreaming.  
Keep on dreaming.  
Just when you think  
you've got it made  
Keep dreaming.  
When it's the best  
you've ever played  
Keep dreaming.  
Time's not always on our side  
Many think so, yet all do die.  
So be ahead of all the games  
By dreaming.  
Keep on dreaming. . .

 Small Miracle  audio

Sometimes,
when I'm complacently
resting on my laurels,
a dream is interjected
into my not-so-subconscious,
often not too subtly
giving me the awakening
that I needed.
 Superlatives  audio
Shall we
capture heady moment
some superlatives of life
a sip of heartfelt romance
a dab of sweet and nice
the taste of salt on someone's skin
a whisper in an ear
the scent of love, a baby's laugh
a sparkling angel's tear.
A brilliant smile in lovely eyes
a sprinkle of some hugs
warm afternoons, a cuddly night
the mist of eastern fogs.
Package heady moments
the superlatives of life
a secret vault to draw upon
to smother fires of strife.

 Ponder  audio

I wanted you to know  
 While I sit here by the shore  
And ponder this and that  
About my life  
As I gaze out at the waves  
There is nothing I would change  
Good was good  
but so was bad  
Such is life.  
Sometimes I think and smile  
At the past  
Oh, so worthwhile!  
Life was hard  
What great is not?  
Such is life.  
I just wanted you to know  
As I meander down this shore  
Your magic presence  
made the difference  
to this life.

 Ancient Warriors  audio

Ancient warriors strong and proud  
Do their tribal dance inside our
head.
Primitive chants from simpler times  
Transfer forward from the dead.  
Living conduits of days gone by  
Souls bursting while they travel  
Slash the inevitable future  
Trawling epoxied past.  
Primal rhythms beat  
within breasts  
Eyes closed,  
souls  
do  
the  
rest.
