Waning

Waning night

Evening gone

Morning later

Will bring the dawn

For now I rest

An easy soul

In my heart

And growing old

Another Take

Another take

Staying awake

My mind roams

When it gets to late

So in a hurry

I push the buttons

Most the tiem

I don’t even know

What’s coming

Diana Road

Left on Hillcrest

Off on Dunes Highway

Over the tracks

On

The near side

There is a place

Where my family resides

Off the beach

With no sand

That is where my family land

All for Now

That’s all for now

In a fleeting feeling

In the future

Connects me

To the now

Of this moment

Off and Away

Off and away

I go

With my emotions in

Tow

Fly from the ground

In a moments notice

I’ll be down

State

In a new state

Of mind

Bored

So bored

The routine

Grabs me

Sits me down

Holds me in attention

For now

I focus

On the path forward

Into the future

Head Start

Posted on June 20, 2020 by acupofsongwriting

A head start

To get going

Before the rest

As we make our way

Through the daily test

Of starting over

And over

Again

How To Stay

Posted on June 13, 2020 by acupofsongwriting
Reply

I have to learn to stay

In one place

Learning from all that is around

Me

In this moment

And many ahead as well

A Bit of a Run

A bit of a run

Comes after the days

Of retreat

Always advances made

If you don’t

Recede

My Own Eyes

My own

Eyes

Have seen

Opportunity

Have seen struggle

Tough times

Amidst the good

A mixed bag

Not always what I wanted

But what it should

Be
