FACING THE FUTURE TOGETHER
Whither go I?
Whither go I in life’s unfolding panorama
Seething swarms of energetic molecules
Merging into light, emerging from the nothing of itself
Searching, seeking, reaching, peaking
Each new life emerges fully without hesitation
Finding easement in the station of living
What appears to be a burst is the first of many moments
Of time, power and response signal
Here stand I poised and solemn
Filmy, open-ended pollen ignites the ruby glowing embers
Seeding deeply carried splendors of a shared making
Me, it, they, the yet to be, blossoming, blooming within
Immersed within,
Emerging without doubt into the life abounding
Am I flower of eternity waking or is the much of too much taking me along the path of no tomorrow
Only moments lost in sorrow when casting back to check the tally
Rise the rose, ring the daffodil, soak in the lily padded pond before you lose the way entirely
Mighty wandering soul
delight me with your courage, pulse of vigor,
stepping forward with the rigorous stride of alteration
that small degree is salvation
a potential deviation from the massive human scorn of purpose, vision and intention
seldom do we hear a mention of these as was meant to be
Here stand you and we another
gifted life from the mother of all
creation to seek a destiny of our own making
we can bloom and we can flower,
born to cherish our tomorrow
piece by moment by precious hour
unfurl thee
