no snow,
no cold
flower raises her shimmering head
flaunting beauty to children
and wayward daylight gatherers
voices of discovery slip into earshot
too late to recant
what once grew now graces tables
surrounded by smells of falafel and coffee cake
indoor prisoner

indoor prisoner like one an outlaw biker
as the snow gets deeper
I've become quite the dreamer
of things turning greener
hating the cold just makes me meaner
snow not so bad wish i was a skier
but no just sitting here becoming quite a sloucher

snow over a foot deep
I'll throw into a big heap

a pile we will make
if not for the kids sake
for an igloo they will undertake

through the hole I will creep
not a word I shall peep

Now I begin to shake
with an awe full backache
is it time for a house break

ahh yes, I got up and off I leap
to the house and off to sleep

lots more snow
on your side of the potomac
grey slush day
recovering from last night
paying for it
but it was fun
no work today
deal with the ice and snow
manna
looking for the big rubber boots
gots to find 'em

Northern hemisphere & Southern hemisphere
Winter versus Summer--
Earth is spinning into the future
We cannot stop it,
But we may try to record thoughts about it...
My thoughts are: "Don't worry, be happy..."
As one of my mentors, Meher Baba, once said...

I passed through the international dateline
Many yarns ago, and now I'm making up for it...
Time has been in my favor today...
"Getting jiggy with it"...Thanks for the moment!
Look! The world's spinning us around again! :lol:

holding on
to a
tigers tail

reaching into
a bag
grabbin' a
rattler

got the bull
by the horns

a jammin' time
i wanna
i wanna
jam wid u

cold season
sinking hands into
the snow
gloves wet
steel and wire
unmanageable
physical realities
crunch-crunch of
boots in snow
hard labor
but so it is
in the heat too
maybe harder

i love all the seasons
every moment lived
one chance
one now
one kapow!!!!
might as well jam!!!!!!!!!

sucking the air out of an empty shell
i taste the sea
i walk the sands of ipanema
so infinitely alone
under comforting skies
warm arms embrace the day

Am I an empty shell?
Infinitely alone?
I think not
There are no empty shells
There are no comforting skies


There is only this


Embrace now
Nothing further has meaning
