Early Light
Light breaks into sound
Birds sing territorially
Soon drowned out by humanity.

Fairy Dust
If you wake in the morning
while all the world sleeps
you will see the crystals of the fairy dust.
They were left during the night
To light their way
just in sight
as the moon bows
the twilight shows it’s veil
Sister
I woke to listen
to a long time friend; sister.
She is on her way
to the hospital today
to be at her husband side.

Frog and Run 
In the words of Niki
” just do it “🐸 Kermit is an inspiration
And my run was good,
Being Alive
a step , a footing,
A distance, each day we strive
By being alive …
Picking up the gauntlet’s throw
Taking on the archer’s bow .

Tanka
Rain has come down now
Sun has hidden it’s red glare
I sit rain drenched wet
And still feel the world’s despair
Meditating 🧘♀️ hope must rise .
