Long to be in good shape long to be in good health
Long to feel good each and every day
No matter what the situation might be of my wealth
Long to be with good friends
Long to be where excitement is just around the bend
Long to be where I can suddenly feel a gentle summer wind
Long to be at a cafe where the piano music makes the food taste great
Long to be there knowing you might be few minutes late
Long to be on a first date as she arrives a few minutes after eight

In the afternoon the wind brings the dust
clouds of it come up from the valley
to invade the silent streets
small animals hide in crevices
now we are all hunkered down
awaiting the quiet of dusk
In the mornings I walk the range
where the air is clear and cool
the city below glimmers
its metal rooved armor
protecting it from the glare
I toss a rock to the gods
and it tumbles out of sight below
shaking the cacti in its descent
this very afternoon the rains will come
then the hard spirit is lifted
with the quenching of the dust

About this poem:
bit of prose
Post Comment
A week after I celebrated my birthday on the big island of Hawaii
A big fire broke out on Maui
At first I thought maybe it was a volcano with hot lava
That was the reason I visited the big island
I wanted to see fresh hot lava oozing out
But I heard it was lightning and heavy winds
I do know they are far away from everything
That is what is so neat about this place
Total isolation from the rest of the world
It is a neat place and I'm sure they will rebuild
I was entertained for my visit
And I'm sure future vacationers will be entertained on Maui

A phalanx of worshippers
all on the salty brine
ten shores from Mecca
the stains are always deeper than you think
fathom it forward in time
when Picasso had made it oblique
but we surround it as an orb
tiny turning of the screw
did release the pressure
knowing this the art of timing
is however inconsequential my friend
when the pixies dance of an evening
all know the show must go on
