March 2000

Day and night balance again.
Not so the weather: One day the sun smiles and kisses the forehead,
the next the icey rain crawls under the collar.
What will be tomorrow?
What will be ??

I saw no reason
to lock the door
when you entered
into my dream

I see no reason
to close that door
now that you
stepped out again

I leave the key
for you to hold
do nor loose it in
"Mea Culpa"

In the waking moment
for the briefest time
before I open my eyes
my world is
perfect
then
I remember

The teacup by the sink
emptied by you
A pillow on the couch
bears impresion of you
A crumbeled receipt
a present for you
The towel on the hook
has the scent of you
A sweater on a chair
I got that from you
A book with a bookmark
recommended by you
All around me
memories of you
All within me
longing for you
The echo of your laughter
so alone without you

If your goal is
to do only
what others say
you can
you will never rise
above yourself
If your goal
is to anything
that is born
of your wish
of your will
your spirit will
sprout wings
rise above
yourself
and those who said
you cannot
and miracles
can grow
from your hands
