The beauties of life
Where kindness and great hearts meet
This, my blessed life

Haiku
Migraines
tightness in my neck
pain radiating outwards
migraine’s misery
My Son’s Path Diverged From Mine
My son’s path diverged
Both sadness at these changes
And proud contentment
A few years changed everything
In ’42
They were proud
Of their work
In ’45
Suddenly they became
The worst evil ever
Eyes finally opened
Stomachs churned
Too late for so many
Ah, Coffee!
Coffee is lovely
It keeps my brain functioning
Keenly important
Investment?
The future? Murky.
I stare into the unknown
A strange investment
May’s Last Day
This month’s one last day
So much potential has passed
This day can still be seized
Today Begins
the day begins
morning’s power embraces
coffee: come fuel me!
Walking with my Shadow
Inspired by sunlight
I walk through the morn
I’m matched step for step
The Zendo’s Quiet
I sit with my tea
The well kept garden beckons
Grasses at perfect angles
