Gravity

High above a forest with a river running through it a mountain stood as it had stood for years. During one of those years a hawk flew even higher above the mountain with a squirrel held tight in its talons when a small acorn fell from the squirrels mouth down onto a ledge next to a huge rock mass part of the mountain. The acorn undisturbed grew into a tree on the ledge overlooking the forest and the river that ran through it.During a storm a bolt of lightning flashed from a dark sky shooting down striking the tree and cracking the rock mass. A piece of the rock mass broke free tumbling down the side of the mountain near the smoldering tree. it landed below in thicket and leaves. There it sat through the changing of the leaves and then covered in snow then when from underneath frozen ground green shoots broke a man found the rock. He used it with others to encircle a fire pit. It sat there dusty and jagged along with them all. Small hands found the rock. A boy ready to make a large splash. A family camping trip next to the rivers edge needed just that which the rock when pitched did. It sunk in a shallow point in the river just below the surface. its rough edges were where branches and leaves while floating would get snagged eventually trapping sand. the river which once flowed straight past that point started to bend. Fish especially Salmon spawned in the shallow water. Their eggs finding refuge around the rock a safe placeuntil it is time for them to swim the grown fish way towards the ocean or a much bigger place.

I Can Not Say

Today my life is this way, not at all the way i imagined it would be years ago on a certain day

Tomorrow how it will be...imagining....but for a certainty...i can not say

To Jenno , sleep well my dear ol pal

I sure will miss you ol gal

It really was a fabulous joy ride

Heels kicken aw right

We laughed , we cryed

You cooked real nice

I told you jokes til you cried

I sure will miss you ol gal

You were and always will be

one of my bestest pals

Asleep

the blankets , cover up to my neck, warm

His arms strong, closely hold

The heart beat calms , me

The night , dark everywhere

Dreaming , eyes closed

Paradise , only God knows

EGO

It isn't this or that , or whatever one thinks it is except
oneself that is

It is the mind , the matters one thinks are important
but are of no importance

Flattery, self importance me-ism, is that all we really are

One thought thinking, believing it is better than the others

Shock , fear of the unknown, the feeling of Home ...where our
hearts long to go , safety

Nets to catch the falling down, hard ground, green grass there , or is it here

Who really knows .....OR really cares

Shoes

Barefoot Blues

Hot pavement on asphalt black

Walkin the line...white

Cool toes warm

Flip flops flap broken strap

Tennis shoes , worn thin

High Heels incite unsuspecting men

Time Flys

Its all these thoughts

Its all these memories of futures past

Its today's tomorrow,

Its tomorrows yesterday

I am reminded of that moment

I am reminded of dreams once

causing sweat and fright

I am reminded of youth
a marvelous fantasy filled place

as now all seems fast forwarded
in a quickening pace
