I have finally learned
the lesson of less
Less is far better
than more ever is
Less is a blessing
it forces one to
be simpler to appreciate
and to be kind
Less is what I
imagine Heaven to be
A place of snowfall
of silence of calm
of sunshine and rain
of humanity and mindfulness
I have lived through
the lesson of more
More always wants more
more is a hellscape
an eternity of selfishness
Less lets things go
unnoticed and unwanted things
baggage and staggering burden
The lesson of less
isn’t one for fools
or fearful or frivolity
The lesson of less
is reserved for those
who are courageous capable
and strong committed to
living life with more
of almost everything importantly
impactful and essentially impossible
simply by accepting that
less is always more

Dawn
The day starts quietly
as the rest sleep
but I sit awake
thinking and quietly watching
as the day yawns
from deep blue to
the shallows of dawn
WelcomeDark
Learn to trust the
dark it is not
your enemy it is
rather that one place
where everyone always goes
before they get to
where they want to
be or ever belong
LifePoints
At this point in your life, young man, you are accumulating: stories, experiences and things. At this point in my life, young man, I am discarding: stories, experiences and things. Your job is to live your life. My job is to remember, release and relax in order to float up to Heaven.
Fireworks
I do so enjoy
this time of day
these last few hours
of the long night
of twinkling far off
street lights of the
darkest of dark skies
of this deep dense
thick and unyielding black
I am an onlooker
awaiting like reveling children
on our Independence Day
for the skies to
open in an explosion
of this new day
