An April snow
bestows
a needed refuge
a long awaited winter gift
albeit Spring
it's timing may be late
but breathe the meditation
and reset
I would that this could be
in every season
a road in summer
autumn too
unblemished
by the hurrying
and steady march of time
a ritual of obstacle
a hindrance to our feet
begets our mind's
rejuvenation

Hans Andersen Brendekilde

 

The stars brought me folly

tonight

so bright did they call

I couldn't resist

their enchanting display

so I wandered right through

to the very next day

connecting the dots

and accounting them all

my feet are as tired 

as dog stars

but my mind's eye 

is sparkled

my being is lightened

my essence enthralled
