I write to understand
Thoughts have no form
They swirl and spin
Dodge coalesce and dissolve
Words are my landfall
Where sirens and storms
Come to a stop
When after I read
Now it makes sense
I can breathe again

I’m going to be
Quiet peaceful and calm
Said the water to
The sea I’ve done
As you have asked
And touched the land
I don’t like it
It’s hard and cold
Always in the way
And life runs away
From me home I’m
Wishing to go where
At least I’m free
TimeHeals
I’m not really sure
Why time does this
But it heals wounds
Scrape bang or bruise
Time does shoo away
Even the deepest cut
Not to be hidden
By a soft dressing
Love needs to breathe
In order to bleed
Seconds hours or days
Do help to cauterize
Zelensky
Oh that Zelensky
We see you
A lion’s heart
A dove’s soul
And eagle’s vision
Protective and strong
Peaceful and calm
Cunning and determined
Oh Mr. Zelensky
The world sees
What Putin cannot
One single man
Followed by others
We are proud
Of you Ukraine
NotAlways
What’s on the menu
Is never ever served
Heaven is better hoped
Than it is realized
Promises are always made
But seldom ever kept
Laughter doesn’t always mean
That things were funny
I do get tired
Pointing out the obvious
Why can’t people learn
That nothing is guaranteed
