Given a Choice of Graces

Folder: 
Life and Living

Pink and orange surround me,

seagulls float effortlessly

as quiet settles over the bay.

My thoughts turn to you

in suffocating surges,

enveloping my soul.



Touching sea oats, breathing sun,

hues of flame embrace me

as winged words blowing in

winds from somewhere,

in twilight skies.



In haze I ponder life,

remembering certain days with

reckless abandon.

Given a choice of graces

(laughter or tears), I go beyond

the pale of my memory,

singing my songs,

not fearing the ultimate

last flight.



Love, mysterious, beautiful,

drifts on new waters,

delighting my heart and soul,

for passion and love wander

only where they are led.
