WHERE I AM A POEM IS
Where I am a poem is
I can't give up
...
WHEN I THINK OF THE BEAUTY THERE HAS BEEN IN THIS WORLD
When I think of the Beauty there has been in this world
That has been lost
...
DEATH COMES IN THE MORNING
Death comes in the morning
...
There is too much to remember
No one can remember it all
Forgetting is everywhere
All the time
...
I Wait For The Words In The Quiet Of Morning
I wait for the words in the quiet of morning
They come easily
...
I SIT ON THE PUBLIC BENCH
I sit on the public bench
Waiting for the time
...
MY POEM TONIGHT
My poem tonight
In the quiet of nothing happening
...
WHEN YOU NEED TO BEGIN AGAIN
When you need to begin again
And you are too old to begin again
...
The day is too beautiful to be inside in
The worlds of sunlight leaves and distant walkways
Call
But inside deeper than all darkness
...
They don't have to run
They can stop and look and love looking at the world
...
