Renewal

Blossoms bursting forth
Another awakening
The sleepers awake

Our mortality
Brutally enforced mandate
The demands of time

Movement calmly slows
This winter’s gently calm sun.
New cherry blossoms

A humble, heartfelt tribute to a major figure in my life. I’ve always wanted to be Spock.

Amongst the stars

My youth passionately dreamt.

Live long and prosper.

Deep into my heart
Wash away the deep set pain
Unburden my path

Strange, just sitting here,
Images demanding time
Life flittering by

Exposing sadness
Uncomfortable, sometimes
Yet not a sickness.

Go into the wind
Feeling storm and rainy mist
Hearkening spring time

Winter’s jagged edge
Painful anguish reaching out
Gently fails towards spring.

Do not be deceived
A merciless path this is
Perfection’s deceit
