VeryEarlySpring

Spring is coming to

Me in two weeks

The blossoms of friendship

And of the holidays

Will open and smile

And give off the

Fragrance of love and

Hope to everyone lucky

Enough to witness this

They will see and

We will know that

I’m not running away

I am going to

For the first time

I have chosen this

There’s freedom in that

I’m not going to

Someone else for them

I am running towards

Me this time slower

Trust

And it’s finally happening

I knew it would

Once that I decided

The Universe then provided

We all have that

Power if we trust

It’s not the path

That is ultimately important

It’s that you take

The first tentative step

The unknown is scary

For if it weren’t

Then it’d be known

I’mComing (to Muenster ❤️)

When I listen to

Satie and to Chopin

I hear snow fall

And I am reminded

How much I miss

Watching it slowly dance

And gather and pile

It reminds me of

Life and of love

Coming in quietly at

First delicate and pure

And the next day

Everything is so bright

That even dogs squint

But as days pass

What was once white

Dirties and tossed aside

No longer a miracle

That’s why I’m going

To the mountains it’s

Closer to Heaven there

ShadowLife

When people don’t care

It’s hard to care

Back the heart is

Like a pond it

Gets covered in ice

As still water does

Yet beneath the hardness

Fish swim about freely

Like hopes and dreams

Either loves sun melts

Or compassionate friends crack

The same thing happens

The shadow life warms
