The Miller\'s Stone (+3)

Forty years of bad road,

a path of broken glass

 

Potholed memories line my thoughts,

devil waiting fast

 

Daring me…

 

“Retrace your steps,

your quickest way back home

 

“Forty years of shattered dreams

—ahead the millers stone”

 

(Villanova Pennsylvania: March, 2017)

 

 

Oracle

 

Myth unlocks the question

—magic then affirms

 

(Villanova Pennsylvania: March, 2017)

 

 

 

Caterpillar\'s Delight

 

Looking beyond our differences,

the transformation deepened

 

Speaking without words,

the conversation spiked

 

Touching without holding on,

all feelings turned to ecstasy

 

Loving while letting go

—the caterpillars delight

 

(Villanova Pennsylvania: March, 2017)  

 

 

For Evermore

 

If music is the soul of art,

then what can writing be

 

Is it the eyes, perhaps the heart,

in printed reverie

 

Is music the stage whereupon,

all other art encores

 

For if it is, all words rejoice

—to sing for evermore
