I have found 
my happiness in
a strange place 
alone a peace 
there too no 
looking no seeking 
just sigh after 
sigh and humming 
it was once 
said that a
happy man hums 
hum with me 
happy with me 
here with me 

No matter how 
no matter when 
or where or
if or why
I always end 
up in precisely 
the exact place 
that I’ve always 
meant to be 
such is the 
serendipity of life 
and the serenity 
of it all 

I circus animal 
or horse leaping 
through hoops and 
over obstacles meant 
to deter or
trip I have 
learned that the 
best way is 
around for things 
meant to dissuade 
and desolve resolve 
have always been 
and have too
swallowed many others 
me I will 
find the other 
side to each

Snow falls
snow balls
snow calls
out for
work and 
school too
snow day
snow play
snow stay

When you think 
there’s no other 
all the rest
simply go away 
they blend and 
bleed like watercolors 
losing whatever they 
were into others
if looking stop
for you’ll never 
see much less
ever even find 
that which you 
thought should be
