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

“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.

First Snow

Unable to find restful sleep
I quickly open the closed blinds
And await the season’s first snow
With youthful anticipation.

This morning one reluctant leaf
Barely clings to the cherry tree
As it gently sways to north winds
Blowing Snow in and Autumn out.

“We hold the key”
```
We hold the key
To see the light
Of our past failures,
Yet we stumble through the darkness
Of daylight
Without noticing
Our shortcomings.

“Other scavengers pluck her tail feathers”

Other scavengers pluck her tail feathers,
Limiting the Eagle’s mobility and power.
One by one the feathers are taken
Making flight practically impossible.

July 26, 1976

The oracle has been cast,
All prophecies written
And the script lay beside me,
Yet I cannot respond.

The sheep are led to slaughter
With foreknowledge
Of expected end
To supposedly read their lines.

“A death has been knocking at the door”

A death has been knocking at the door,
But I refuse to listen and only ignore;
For Destiny is worth keeping
These two feet terra firmly seeking
To extend the never ending Dream
Beyond personal reality.

Of Two
```
Windy is the night.
The storms of passion
Turned out the lights
And the love and the dreams
Of Two.

Grey clouds cover all
In their world
As the rains fall,
Streaming down the cheeks
Of Two.
```
