My mission in life
Make cool dreams reality
Defeat resistance
I had fun crafting this. Seems appropriate to have a haiku as a mission statement.

Haiku
Lighter Than Air
I’m lighter than air
Drifting up above tree-tops
Wakefulness comes soon
Tonight’s Magenta CloudsÂ
Evrning colors speak
Calling forth the rising moon
Dusk’s magenta clouds
I love summer nightsÂ
I love summer nights
So tempted to stay awake
Later than prudent
A Cold OvernightÂ
Each cough
Self conscious
Creating disturbance
Where peace
Should reign
And then think
Of the germs
Launched forth
Looking for a
New host.
Pablo Neruda
​
Neruda’s poems
Make my heart sing
His words echo
Through my soul
Light Moves Across The Firs
Sunlight’s fading fast
Moving across the grand firs
Gray clouds up above
Light Moves Across The Firs
Sunlight’s fading fast
Moving across the grand firs
Gray clouds up above
Last Day Of School
This last day of school
Enjoy this summer of rest
Each fall brings changes
The last day of school brings some melancholy thoughts. Lots of lasts today, followed by a bunch of firsts. For my house, middle school ends. The little boy who once lived in my house is taller than me. Joyous stuff, really, yet tinged with sadness v
Changes, so many, a constant string; such is life, I guess.
Night Gently CallingÂ
Night gently falling
Slumber’s insistent demands
Speaking to me, too
