Wake up too early
Without enough sleep. Oh dream,
Don’t leave me so soon.

Blast from the Past:

My bed calls to me:
“Where are you? I miss your warm
Embrace. Come to me.”

Arising from dust
We are a wild sunflower
Swaying in the breeze

Blast from the Past:

If I were a tree,
I would be curved and twisted
As I search for the sun
And my roots would cling dearly to the earth

12/08/25 A New Aphorism for a New Day

Today I wrote an aphorism instead of a poem:

Instead of asking whether someone is a good person, sometimes the better question to ask is who are they a good person to? Some people are only good to themselves and maybe those closest to them.

Blast from the Past:

Each day, two choices:
Cast out the bad out of yourself,
Or receive the good.
