New Year's Song

by the sun-lit shore

I listen to a thousand clams

humming new year's song

Mr. Fate

often have you judged

screamed and grudged

excuses were made

over dreams, nascent, dead

losses being wrapped

in reasons outrageous

cribbing all around

surely contagious

but have you ever thought

instead of being distraught

a search for the solution

that would solve all equations

there are answers all around

very eager to be found

be smart, patient, and wait

don't just blame Mr. Fate

A Grain Of Sand

it was dusk

and a grain of sand

that brought us closer

when you touched my hand

your fingers carefully

wiping the sand off my eyes

I wished we were in love

it just felt so nice

our time was up, I'd to leave

adopting a lie I would forever believe

Collapsing Chaos

soaring high

rising in herd

collapsing chaos

willing to be heard

days and nights

a rush for the berth

no time for love

nor death and birth

wings do flutter

a few tear away

in noisy clutter

hope hides it ray

needs taken for granted

greed has its say

chasing nothing

we've lost our way

Sky And Waves

pebbles on pebbles

and the sky leaning on waves

I learn to balance
