Mar Adentro - A Poem

running, running
through the forest
the thick, thick forest,
lost.
climbing, climbing
up the slippery slope
and into the cavern
the dark, dark cavern
scared.
searching, searching
within the unknown
closer to the unknown
the water flows.
but where is the source?

White Picket Fence - A Poem

“I want this to last forever”
What innocence that is,
How clever.
But don’t you know
Nothing shall last
So when time stands still
hold on,hold on fast!
Enjoy the moment
Relish in what is–
Prolong the atonement.
But beware!
Build that house
Brick by brick
It’s still too tender and red.
Fleeting memories
flash one by one
Dissolving into the ether.
The moment is safe
Swallow the pill
Slip into temporary bliss.
The luster fades
Yet wisdom remains
Now redemption is clear.
