For Nani
```
Don’t postpone living
   Until another day,
For even darkness of night
   Can’t keep the dawn away.

“Dreams built on sand”
```
Dreams built on sand
Crumble before our eyes
And we cannot understand
Why it is so. . . .

Dreams cascade
Like waterfalls
From a sky of rock.

“The Creative Castle contains”
```
The creative castle contains
Uncountable passageways
Leading to hallways
And unopened doors.
A random selection
Has been the key.

A Dream

I am with Child
I sense its presence
I feel its movement
I know its thoughts

Finally I understand
The Cosmic Child is within me
Restlessly waiting to be Birthed
Into the Light of a New Day

“We become strangers to each other”
```
We become strangers to each other
And also to our selves.
Our paths have strayed
Although we are together.
Friendly bonds grow
To become what they will.
A painful re-acquaintance is undertaken,
For we stand at the crossroads—
Of love?

Through Pisces to Aquarius IX

                IX
Modern day Luddite warriors,
Fight not for the jobs you have lost.
Tune out, unplug, and awaken
From the techutopian dream
To join battle late in the day
For the Soul of Humanity.

The Cul de Sac of Growth

Innocence blesses our early waxing years—
The freedom possessed though not known
Is a release from prejudice, hate and fear,
Until seeds of worldly knowledge are sown.

The senses pleasures become our growth,
As pushing and striving for distant gain
We cast aside the heavenly oath
To replace universal love with mortal pain.

Children of the Sun XII

If they are unwilling
Or unable to accept
The opportunity
Of the gift now offered
It will be presented
Again and yet again
As it has time after time
Following the agony
Of climbing back to face
Their current dilemma
And again be confronted
By the fear of losing
Individuality
In the ocean of Oneness

Hippo Rock

Another wave washes 
The Hippo clean
Of perching shore birds

Overhead the seasonal wave
Of migrating ducks and geese
Struggle to reorganize
Their disintegrating formations
In the erratic April breezes
