I would try
But I know that your best
Is better by far than mine
You are much smarter than me
But I wouldn't want you to see
A one sided love that was blind
So one last kind farewell
Knowing we will never meet again
I would try but I know, you see the best in him

“On
This path
An
Old man
Walks
And talks
With
It’s cane

World

Judge
And plan,

Or take
Off
It’s joy,
Let him blind; –

Once
A boy,

Old man; –
Though
They’re mean,
- He
Is kind;
Dust in wind; – ”

With horse chestnut leaf wings,
and the softest light steps;
by old willows still pond,
came the granting of dreams.
To a secret walled garden,
they danced with raised knees;
fair sylvan fairies,
following soft summer seeds.
Around old verdant paths,
to the bearded moss bench;
skipped the winged dyad daughters,
under a sky without tears.
'To Pooh-stick Bridge',
one young daughter then cried;
with a twirl of her hem
and wave of her wand.
Down the woods sun dappled path,
alongside the chuckling stream;
guided by the small hand,
of the fairest fairy queen,
Journeyed three searching
for the pixie-up-sticks,
A small one; and a short one;
and a knobbly one still on the tree.
With horse chestnut leaves still,
and the softest lights stepped;
from their own Pooh-stick bridge,
came the descending until,
To the other side all excited,
they whirled round to see;
All shinny faced fairies,
until winners counted three.
Around pine cones and acorns,
over blades of lighted grass;
flew the leafing winged sisters,
under a sky without loss.
But someone old and summer passing
broke the enchantment that day;
and their wands went in the rubbish;
and cried for wings dried away.

*** Snowflakes ***
“When
All
Wear white,
Sign
Of peace;
- Snow
Flakes,
- My soul
At ease –
*** Root ***
Bless
Thee,
O, soul! -
As
Only He
Wakes
All,
- To warmth,
Or freeze –
*** Root ***
Each
Peak
- Thus pray,
Thoughts
Seem to
Cease,
While
Snow melts
Cold breeze – ”

*** As above.. ***
“Dusk rings; –
***
Twin clouds;
***
Life charm, -
***
Soul soothe;
***
Nine skies; -
***
Dream bells –
***
Hearts melt;
***
Space curves, –
***
Time stops.
***
*** Roots (1-4) (2/3) (4/5) (6) {9} ***
Deep flute:
***
Heart path –
***
Wind blows –
***
Sweet trills…
***
Eye seek rest
***
Dream realms; -
***
Clouds of peace; -
***
Far of sight…
***
Lands with saints…
***
*** Roots (1-4) (2:3) (4/5/6) {9} ***
Search deep –
***
Beam flows …
***
Heart waves –
***
Soul vibes;
***
Core of now:
***
Mind stirs …
***
Life spring; -
***
Switch tones,
***
Rest in peace…“
