Dodge Poetry Festival
You might want to go to youtube and see many more poets at this festival, enjoy!
Here is one of my poems from hopefully a new book, "Inner Passage"
Walk the Path…
What does it mean to walk the path?
What does it mean to be compassion?
Not dominating but compassionate
Not fear, but acceptance
Not exclusion but inclusion
Not war but non-violence, peace
Not hate but love
Not judgment but open and honest conversation
We no longer need to be lost, but our found,
Is this my karma, or, the Path?
The answers, no not answers but the moment
is where I experience all of this and more…then…
Move to the next one, free, open, it’s just a breath away…

Friendship
I watch a family of deer
feeding on the corn in the large bucket
set out for winter feeding
the older deer ate first and then the young
but there was a compassion there
and an order...a love...a compassion
but is that not true of all creatures of this universe?
friendship is like that, an order, a freedom, a love
beyond words or ways to tell about it...
returning from a visit this last week-end to Roger and Pat's home
was like gathering about the table in love
I am so grateful for this friendship, since childhood
and all my friends, thanks Roger and Pat, we love you!
