the keeper of dreams
comes to imaginations
with lurid temptations
promising
islands in the sky
beauty
in the mind’s eye
a veritable Versailles
where ones mind can fly
to islands in the sky
where mythology
turns into folk etymology
and no one has to die
***
fame, glory, and power motivate many
while others are content to be ordinary
the case for mediocrity
isn’t always easy to see
how living quietly
makes some happy
living without envy
and fame’s frenzy
can be
a friendly journey
without strife
the rest of your life
***
for the sake of humanity
bring us together in unity
we’re a troubled society
in desperate need of harmony
help us see
the absurdity
of denying diversity
so that we can live
together peacefully

Carp Diem
Towering ambitions
like castles in the sky
are for dreamers
who aren’t afraid to fly
it takes a bold person
who isn’t afraid to die
to embrace ambition
to pursue a goal
and bring it to fruition

Bob the Cat was interviewed one day
by a curious kitten
who wouldn’t stay away
“How did your ears get that way?“
But Bob wouldn’t say
“How old are you?”
Bob told him to go away
“What do you do all day?”
Bob replied “Skip the survey”
so
the kitten finally had to concede
the old grouch wouldn’t proceed
and there’d be no interview
no wise worldview
from an old cat
like that

Warm salty waves
splashing on the seashore
soaking beach sand
hear the roar
as the tide dances
on the ocean floor
hear the seagulls
and watch them soar
while walking along
the seashore
**
in the book of life
there needs to be
a chapter on fantasy
where reality
retreats
and good vibes soar
with special fantasies
that help restore
vigor
**
some wear vanity
like a king’s crown
unaware they look
like a vain clown
their fake façade
is easily exposed
as being a fraud
**
there are no lies
in a baby’s eyes
no prejudice
just innocence
seeking love
from above
**
If I had dime for every epiphany
that I’ve had
it would add
up to a lot of money
however
remembering
those moments of inspiration
when something became clear
never lingered long enough
for them to physically appear
alas! my fleeting epiphanies
will never persevere
