Journey life’s river
Rudder trues your bow on course
Dad's love is your stream
...

It starts again, the cycle repeats.
From where it comes, I do not know.
You have to “Put down the seat! ”
she snarls, 'every time you go.'
...

ocean eyes float dreams
around currents and heart tides
day and night about you
...

Explaining the effect that your eyes have on this man
Is neither easy nor compact.
To comprehend, one must understand
the power of midnight to the insomniac.
...

It seemed the Solstice would never arrive!
The excitement made sleep impossible.
With my dilemma, can our friendship thrive?
In naive dreams, everything seemed doable.
