The dancing figures
came into the scene
Uninvited
as in a dream
Simple controlled by thought
The viewer and the view
dance magically
until dawn
So simple and impossible
Unsteadily
I took my first step
I was aware
This has gained
Some attention not
Really everybody
Does it
I started to run
Like the wind
Effortless
I felt
Supreme
I could race
I left them all behind
Not a great Idea
For long distant runners
Are out there alone
Is it a situation
that leads us? Or
does intuition
change our minds?
Do we always respond
to what are heart is
telling us?
Whatever which way
that’s always ours to enjoy
While we sleep
the creature of nature
move around.
Birds fly, foxes forage
Mice find our crumbs and
rats sneak past the sleeping dog.
The world is for the nocturnal
bats, cats, bears and hares
It is there’s forever
I want to be there, meet the people
who travel that way, those that
made such a wonderful design
I want to hear their stories,
I want see their lives,
know how they think
How many moons the old tree
has seen. Each moon bringing
a new cycle of expectation
One century maybe two the
tree stands on this spot. See
Knurled wood and the strain
of long bitter winters and
summer droughts, still it has
young leaves and is giving fruits..
We take a lesson
There’s
a natural
Law of Physics
beyond our capabilities
by which the tree calculates
how to create a perfect canopy
So each leaf will capture the most sunlight
Sunlight
