The mystery of a poem dwells within our hearts,
as we connect and flow,
turning over words
until
we are a river
from the sacred mountains.

With a Quiet Strength
Creeks swell in late spring, with a quiet strength,
longing to become rivers
guiding my spirit
to a beautiful peace.

Spring Flows Strengthening
Within the depths of our spirits, spring flows
strengthening our rivers
calling forth our poems,
even washing
our minds with the hope
we were created for.

The Light Will Draw Us Closer
In this evil day of black shirts, and dictator winds, empowering
even weaponizing storms,
the light will draw us closer
providing strength
and confidence
to even seek the mountains
and rivers once again.

In the Wild Streams
Will our children enjoy the depths of the wild streams when the end of all things is completed? Yes, as the ravens guard the river flow, and as wild geese fly over.
Having been washed by the great trouble we can see now, when our tribulation will end. As cities descend into ruins, the Earth will be healed, and cover over what used to be.
And we will not only bathe in the wild streams, but a new rotation will bring a cooling, and plants will no longer be burned. Our future generations of survivors will feel safe, within their deliverance.

Our Rivers Will Speak to Us
When we are quiet, our spirits drifting
into peace
our rivers will speak to us
as we covet the love
in our hearts.
And yes
it is true sometimes
rivers will carry us
to make a stand.
My friends my river is speaking, and it says Nationalism falsely parades as patriotism. It’s not patriotic.
In one single year from 2016 to 2017 hate crimes against Hispanics in our country went up 40%.
In that same year 2016 to 2017 anti-Semitic hate crimes in our country went up about 60%!!
What does that tell you?
It says Nationalism causes hatred because of an atmosphere of division and strife.
Push back on hate!!
Please vote on November 6th!!
Hatred is un-American.

A Soft Rain Caresses Gently
A soft rain caresses gently, running into streams as the joy
of the Earth accepts the sky’s offering,
and sparrows celebrate
over the widening river
so lovingly held
in the hands of the mountain.
And one day,
this same river will empty itself
as a sacrifice
into the expanse of the sea
and the endless horizon.
