Contemplating absence…

Five Seven Five
Damn! My head won’t stop
Thinkin’ ’bout five seven five
Will it ever stop?
-Fred Jones-
Pulling me out of my preoccupation and the doldrums…
Now again inspired…
I wrote…
Always Planned
Sabbaticals not
Always planned sometimes they just
Find me all caught up
-gl-
Contemplating being gone too long…
Please share…
Contemplating time…
And Biding
Sitting by the heat
Rubbing my hands together
Flexing frozen feet
Pondering the time
And biding it as well I
Find moments sublime

Contemplating patience…
Please share…
Contemplating reality…
Have To Roll
Life changes and we
Have to roll with the punches
Even grandsons see
-gl-
Contemplating clarity…
Please share…
Contemplating life…
Of the Way
Fate grudgingly gives
Each hard fought step of the way
It is what it is
-gl-
Contemplating effort…
Please share…
Contemplating the journey…
Test That
What can you endure
Test this. Test that. Give it all
Life’s an adventure
-gl-
Contemplating the try…
Please share…
Contemplating effort…
Before then we must
Give our all for in the end
We all leave as dust
-gl-
Contemplating purpose…
Please share…
Contemplating mystery…
Makes Sense
Quiet evidence
Of a devine universe
That only makes sense
-gl-
Contemplating life and nature…
Please share…
Contemplating wonder…
Drifts Undiscovered
Now a light dusting
Of snow
Has fallen and gently blows
About in soft swirls trusting
The breeze to
Send it where it will
Hare and there ground uncovered
Bordered by fresh tiny drifts undiscovered
Where as yet no footsteps fell
The landscape renews
Itself and before again the people come rushing
Peace knows
A place and life flows
Gently and’s not quite so crushing
-gl-
Contemplating life…
Please share…
Contemplating adventure…
And the Fog
Not feeling so bold
Twelve hundred miles and the fog
Be fun with a cold

Turas math dhut…
Please share…
Contemplating odd circumstances…
Hard To See
Not that eyes closing
But running gets hard to see
With eyelids frozen
-gl-
Contemplating the season…
Please share…
