Goes

I don’t think 
that we confuse
days of the
week because we’re
all getting older
but because we’re
at last aware
of how fast
it really goes

Earth

And bubbles bubble 
breaking the surface
sighs I think
of times gone
dark things settled
and breaking down
becoming rich earth
in which plants
and lily pads
will soon bloom

Fireflies

It’s now when 
the morning shadow
hovers and covers
and the sun
peeks through windows
some little spy
in the sky
and everything else
all around me
glows like bulbs
belonging to fireflies

Freedom

Now is not 
the time to
forget but remember
that one man
does not make
himself a nation
but a nation
makes every man
whatever he wants
himself to be
and this pledge
freedom for all
will never silence
not by tyranny
or by bigotry
or by greed
because by liberty
our voices ring

Orbit

Dreams are
almost always
very selfish
me my
and mine
wishes too
also revolve
around you
but we
are not
the sun
but rather
just cold
hard rock
caught in
someone’s orbit
