February 2000 Poems

For February, 2000

                                               restless soul
                                               motionless body

                                               soul at rest
                                               body in motion

                                               soul at rest
                                               body at rest

                                               last option
                                               has no more dimension.
 

                                                            accompaniments . . .

                                                silence
                                                for the stillness
                                                in my soul

                                                music
                                                for the stirrings
                                                in my soul
 


On departures . . .

                                                I miss you.

                                                I am surprised
                                                at how much

                                                and even more surprised
                                                at how soon
 


In fond memory . . .
 
 

                                                            good grief
                                                he is sick
                                                and has retired

                                                Charles M. Schultz
                                                creator of Snoopy
                                                i will miss you

                                                thank you for the love
                                                happiness and security
                                                from "Peanuts"
                                                thru the years
