such is life...

mutual
like a magnet pulls
taut, vibrating resistance
your eyes a slow dance

endlessly...

expanding
like a storm building
growing larger every day
the sky filled deeply

shaking my head...

moved
all with a purpose
people that fill out my life
I am amazed

summary...

sleepless
awake in the sun
air vibrating on my skin
melt into the day

eyes
yes, I remember
pouring slowly over me
words like warm honey

......................................

still so much to say
what am I creating here?

chance meeting...

yes
I see inside you
the calm within the chaos
concentrated life

tonight...

blood
quiet enters me
until stars run through my veins
the moon on my tongue

scattered images...

to see
the life in those eyes!
my blue windows thrown open
breathe in to breathe out

Thursday...

opened
brought into my world
an unexpected kindness
quickly breaks my heart

for a moment...

silence
to whisper, hold me
deeply in quiet places
music on my skin

not...

chance
I ask...Who are you?
those that join me in my walk
many threads entwined

through a text...

quote
words handed to me
are heard deeply whispering
quiet as a gift

sometimes...

restraint
they hold themselves back
my curious, searching, words
stretching and straining

recently...

away
to practice patience
suppressing thought with a breath
the moment endless

a need to share...

Something different. I might come up with a haiku, I might not.
A couple of people I have met in the last week...
...a student/artist continuing on the next stage in his life trying to make sense of life and love, so excited to connect and share his love of art with someone...he made me laugh, got so caught up in the conversation he called me 'dude' and instantly apologized...I'm 20 years older than him!...I wish him luck...
...a man older than the student who after losing his fiancee 10 years ago in a plane crash went on a 10 year bender...eight months ago met a woman and is is so madly in love he was just bursting to tell someone about her...what she likes...how she looks...he is awed by his good fortune...I didn't mind listening at all it was a joy talking to someone so open...
The people I meet are a part of me. it is humbling to think I might be a part of them.

yep, one was waiting to come out after all...

extending
I spread my arms, to
wrap myself around the sky
living inside-out

Thursday morning...

slip
lost in a meeting
my thoughts fly out through the cracks
a slice of blue sky

morning...

reverb
woke up with a word
there at the edge of my lips
an echo, "profound"

Sunday...

fringe
the air is brilliant
vision flies faster than thought
boundaries broken

slow and...

easy
to resonate life
as empty spaces are filled
leaving room for you
......................................

...but not waiting for you...

rebound...

slightest
a surface like glass
one touch and the waves begin
felt throughout my life

to go...

beyond
slipping through the cracks
I am on the other side
with a slow wild dance
