Cloud Birds
The clouds imitate the lake
A pelican gliding
A duck dunking it’s head
A gull fighting for food
A pigeon turning his luminescent neck
A Canadian Goose in formation
Their shapes glide
Change
Rearrange
Another bird forming
A mystical mirror that moves through
the sky

Never speaking your own truth.
Your
camelon colors made me wonder.
Then
Facebook was discovered.
You
could hide behind screens
Spewing
venom and hatred
arrogant
pride with ease
Now
that I’ve heard your voice
I
prefer
Silence
Theory

People that don’t believe in God
have
not been at the bottom of the well
wondering if they will survive.
Or a
loved one near death
had to
cry out for help.
Have not been in
a tunnel so dark
they truly needed a flashlight.
Falling
to the abyss
must reach
out for a life line.
Drowning,
could not catch a breath,
could not catch a breath,
begged for assistance.
Their life too easy to stretch soul out of
body
calling to a Higher Power for aid.
Tests not
tough enough
to really
reach to the heavens.

Easter sun warms the earth
Baby

Seagulls return
Seagulls return
My

Cruising
around the park
Children swing
and climb
With Springs return the day is magic
With Springs return the day is magic
People
picnic and feed the birds
Run and walk
Sap returning to trees and to their veins
Sap returning to trees and to their veins
The
leaves peak out of their bud chrysalis
Testing the air
Blossoms of color pop with celebration
