LOVE

Tree Indeed

Tree Indeed
you planted me

I grow too short
beside infinity

*

you prune my leaves
you shape my song

you give me shelter
I’m in the sun too long

*

I drink your nectar
in the quiet of home

I whisper your name
I’m never alone

*

Tree indeed
I planted you

Seed in my heart
remains forever true.

With no demand

Love’s face

has taken her place

she smiles from behind my eyes

she’s wearing me as her disguise

Big difference

That which is for you a poem for me is not,

that which is a poem for me for you is not,

that which is for you a truth for me is not,

that which is a truth for me for you is not,

that which is for you a peace for me is not

that which is for me a peace for you is not,

that which is for you love, for me is not,

that which is for me love for you is not,

Heartfelt kiss

Who doesn’t want to be fulfilled?

Who doesn’t want to feel love and peace?

Just recognize your own heartfelt kiss

and you will be satisfied and fulfilled.

Warm Houses

WARM HOUSES

we were trained like a dog,

trained in what is right and what is wrong,

trained in what is good and what is bad,

trained in who is and who isn’t our god.
