Just wait stop
Take deep breaths
Count and let
Pass like a
Rain shower or
Snow flurry sometimes
The best thing
To do is
Stay put letting
The storm that
Your life is
To pass bringing
Eventual sunny skies
Just wait stop
Take deep breaths
Count and let
Pass like a
Rain shower or
Snow flurry sometimes
The best thing
To do is
Stay put letting
The storm that
Your life is
To pass bringing
Eventual sunny skies
In life we
Face boulders in
Our path we
Can try to
Move them or
Avoid them some
Of our paths
Are littered with
Them while others
Have a few
Boulders aren’t obstacles
But rather lookouts
Upon which to
Climb giving perspective
Take hold and
Reach the top
In order to
See from whence
You’ve come and
To where that
You are going
Sometimes what we
Think is true
Isn’t sometimes our
Feelings get hurt
Causing even affection
To sour and
Then someone hands
You a fresh
Glass of love
Drink you do
Wondering what magic
Lies within what
Mysteries will emerge
Rather than believing
Yourself instead try
To trust others
For in them
You will love
Time has robbed
Me of you
Gotten in the
Way too many
Distractions like all
Those presents under
The tree how
Will you ever
Find mine tucked
Way in back
Instead I wait
Worried that opulence
Will out shine
The trinket that
I am worried
That my little
Gift will get
Lost against the
Backdrop of time
And so we’ve
Turned that corner
From leaf to
Fall from lover
To friend from
Important to convenient
What was once
A priority has
Now become normal
But a bland
Tepid normal like
A cooling cup
Of coffee still
Packing its punch
But lacking heat
So many times
Before have i
Rowed these streams
That first rapids
Then dump into
A lake of
Complacency fine we’ll
Be the embers
Of friendship no
Longer stoking the
Flames of desire
