PEAR TREE AGENDA

He has no agenda
for his children nor
his pear trees.

LUMINARIES SHARING

Oer earth luminaries
their lights are sharing
All stars pour out
their starring.
On earth young souls
keep on bombing, scarring
keep on with illusory
enemies sparring

WISE PARENT

There was a wise parent
who had a rule...her quarreling
siblings could not speak to her
about another's perceived wrong
until he or she could state the
argument to the satisfaction
of the temporary adversary's
point of view.

Footnote: don't remember
the person who spoke of this

SHAMROCKS

Shamrocks are not shy plants
needing shielding by shadow
and shade.

*

PHOENIX

Only a phoenix bird can
tolerate a nest of
flames.

*

BASTILLE

It was not the prisoners
inside the Bastille
but the administrators
who were bastards.

LOTUS PIONEER

In the painting
one lotus reached out
her petaled fingers
with a hello
as she began to grow
into an open window..

a shaft of light into
the gloom
a herald of Spirit
in the form of a bloom

BEAUTY FROM CHAOS

A rainy day..
Van Gogh paints inside..
dirty dishes stack up..
piles of clothing..
the messier the room
becomes..
the more beautiful
the sunflowers and
the sun

LIGHTNING AND HIGH WINDS

Lightning and high winds
are allowed pruning tools.
