You’re interesting
Alluring, mysterious
You’re my morning fog

Loop Trails
Starting and ending in the same place
Everything new along the way
Views from many directions
Nothing revisited
Surprises around
Each new bend yet
The end is
Still the
Same
Point-to-Point Trail
Traveling in just one direction
No retracing or revisits
Only one chance for success
Every obstacle new
Just one perspective
Discovering
Half of life
As you
Move.
Out & Back Trails
Out and Back Trails through rocky woods
A chance to revisit challenge
Time to see beauty again
Ending where you began
Confronting past
Obstacles
Prepared
Now
Sunrise

Morning cobwebs dull goals and dreams
head clears as sky clears, future gleams
Ready to eat this day. Won’t choke.

A Redondilla Poem
Morning clouds quickly
Overcame the
Flame at the edge of the world.
The gray day is a
bellows igniting a
Flowery inferno.

Life is this pink and blue treat ball
Upon first glance does not enthrall
Just sitting there not giving
Needing you to do the living
You need to act to get rewards
Life’s waiting to be explored
Live to the fullest, risk the fall
Get all you can from this treat ball

Life is Sweet
——————————————————–
Why do you let your dreams
Settle at the bottom of your life
Under the weight of the day to day
Like an unstirred blob of honey
At the bottom of a warm mug of tea
Not sweetening the drink
Not making a difference
Resulting in something less enjoyable
Than it could be?
