Listen to
the silence
silence isn’t
absent anything
silence has
its sound
silence is
the sound
of everything
filtering out
the nothingness
of your
everyday noise
silence is
only ever
found where
you are
nowhere else

Awaiting
I do know
now that when
I reach Heaven
the trumpets that
I will hear
will be sighs
and the harps
will be whispers
from those who
I have loved
and that God
will be a
child welcoming me
taking my hand
saying come it’s
time to play
AuContraire
Writing is
not my
life’s distraction
au contraire
life is
now my
writing’s distraction
Dozing
Now sleeping
you are
here next
to me
and I
feel what
I imagine
your father
did when
first he
gazed upon
your dozing
too in
his arms
Wisdom
Wisdom is
nothing more
than the
scars on
the heart
after the
wounds of
experience have
finally healed
