Words

 I can't stop thinking of words,

these mysterious things that cross my mind,

while they quickly dance around,

faster than a gossip in a small town.

There's the always powerful ones,

as they echo throughout history,

full of meaning and eternal glory,

firmly standing for humanity.

There's the warm ones,

said as a greeting or a feeling,

at a market or under the stars,

planting smiles and warming hearts.

Some others are left behind,

with no empathy in mind,

causing tears that start streams,

tearing starts of pristine dreams.

Many more are never spoken,

perhaps to avoid a heart broken,

but the true feelings will unfold,

through a nervous twitch or a smiley face,

somehow we can't escape, but embrace,

our genuinely powerful emotions.

And like the skies with the birds,

we're connected with words,

and more.

The Nature of Life

I've heard people say that life flows,

kind of like the waves that seek shores,

or maybe like the dance of northern winds,

or perhaps like the earth beneath our feet.

Could be the wandering of shining stars,

as they whirl through realms of galaxies,

or the fiery sparks of new-lovers' hearts,

as they eagerly imagine all the possibilities.

Repeated cycles on Earth and beyond,

resemble an open door when one shuts behind,

the blossoms in spring and yellows of fall,

it's just change and energy wherever you go.

Or like the ancient wisdom that is passed down,

through centuries and books to reach our time,

and minds with thoughts that make you sonder,

how bits of this cosmos are a stunning wonder.

It could be the little things, that leave us amazed,

when lost in a box or a tunnel, or the life-maze,

treasuring birds' symphonies and stoic trees,

morning rains, heartfelt smiles, dedicated bees,

and everything else that truly warms the soul,

making this wonderfully marvelous journey,

 harmonically flow.
