Showering life with picture puzzles and pretzels tangled

in poems of praise and thanksgiving.

Musically filled with rhythms of love continually, enjoy-

with mine, hearing your breathing touching interior tones.
...

Testing, experimenting, finding realities of life,

Listening attentively and completely to time centering

evenly flowing, your precious heart beating in time
with mine.
...

Music playing, rhythms flowing in measures of time

Noticing shadows of angles lying upon walls surrounded by
sunlight, showing off darkened contours, watching as the
sun moves higher, changing patterns of the angles.

Running smoothly, efficiently, like a swiss watch,
the office maintains a rhythmic work pace.

Everything orderly, set in place, helps the students

Panacea of life floats throughout ages on the pretense of
thoughtful knowledge.

Not knowing nor caring of whence it came, battling itself
