When fighting naptime eyelids droop
inside your sleepy heads
so take a hint from this lament
and snug yourselves abed!

All my life
I wanted to leave home.
I just couldn't wait to get out,
but now that i'm older.
I want to stay.
I just want to be,
that little girl for mommy.

the daylightin' rumbles of Rev'em Up Jo
she motored about taking all of her fun
while scattering cats sending dogs on the run.

The old one is so nearly done.

That I will ten pounds lighter be,
And when the year to come, is through,
I'll make the same . . . more

My dear Lord,
How sweet the savor
of your love for me.
I can't touch or see you
but I know you're
near evoking joy
For all that's right in life.
Even when I forget
to pray, your guidance . . . more

I held an "empty" vessel
longing to be filled,
sensed the fullness present
pouring out to me.
I gazed upon an innocence,
a purity of trust, . . . more

wind lifts, skies darken , leaves to yellow,
white sand memories of kicking the foam,
tides rush in, crashing sandcastles
we built when you were small;
we made mountains, rivers,

I’m different, and I don’t care,
it’s not a sin you know.
In fact it’s quite splendiferous,
a tingly, fuzzy glow!
When I’m at school, I look around
and never fail to . . . more

I'm saving blinks
while I visit that place
where I goes and thinks,
no travel time, nor ticket fare
just slow the blinking

The jay swooped down, loudly squawking,
The squirrel raced off, hardly balking--
To the nest was the goal,
The nut dropped in the hole,
The exploit well marked by proud barking.

MOTHER EARTH
Mother Earth actually looks after me,
She neither expects nor charges a fee.
Every year fresh fruits she provides to eat,
For those fruits ,one another man will beat.
So much water is there . . . more

no inquiry response,
dull rattle, stryo-peanut shell.
What gift is this
so plainly unadorned
yet scorned, . . . more

For his Death point or moment of seperation.
The Jains have santhara,
Quitting life consciously to join with the paramatma.
