Leaving our footprints
In the sands of time
We walk till sunset
Your hand in mine.

Bird or Dog
```
For years we have acted
And been treated like—
Dogs.

We are as free
As the soaring eagle;
As active as a 
Hummingbird,
Yet we wallow in the mud
Of our own making, like
Hogs.

Driftwood Daydream

Fifty-seven winters
I have perched on this coast,
To watch the tide rise up
Only to fall again.
I gawk at you bipeds
Gawking at me in awe,
When my outstretched wings touch
The distant horizon.

Paths I, vi

Is the heaven we seek beyond,
   Or a divine flame within us?
   To reach out, grasping distant star
   Is opening the heart to trust
In a divinely loving bond.
   The seeds of immortality
      In each individual soul
      Lie dormant, to sprout at any hour,
      As we dwarf or nurture their very goal.
   If the quest be made lovingly,
Our eternal life will greet the dawn;
   Awakening the asleep to see
   Heaven’s all encompassing glory.

Paths I, ix

Various books of scripture lay
   For our opened eyes to see,
   A testament from all cultures
   Of the world that is to be.
In spectrum’s spiritual array
   Peoples of all colors and creeds
      In silent reverence converse,
      Warning of temptation’s vultures
      That pilot desire’s mortal hearse.
   In scripture Providence’s seed
Is sown to grow and show the way
   For man to quench his thirstful need
   To live life, unshackled and freed.
