Still there

 

When love was in the way

I broke free

but where did I go, China?

 

I do not know now

I do not know now.

do You

did I ever

did You

I thought I did

didn't You

didn't We think We did

didn't We want to think We did beyond all We do?

Choice

maybe move in this direction

or maybe a little back 

maybe forward

or spin around this way

or that, perhaps so similar 

impossible to make.

old man's spring

Free

She loves a bird and calls him Free

he sees her skies

and winds churning clouds

She hears his heart

before he flies

Free

 

A fall in winter

after a fall the snow softens with winds covering
remember frozen hands
a face laughing loud in silence
I sleep maybe its a dream
a rabbit scampers by
footprints following
time

Winter Light

The sun is setting. The moon is fading. I heard a bird singing, saying,

and your face is in shadow,

but the hawk I like was quiet, on a branch, almost hidden in the middle of a tree,

and winter on the ground, 

it becomes a light, lightness, life, even on a horizon

carry it on a shoulder, 

take it home.
