“Journey to the Self”
Beneath all noise, a voice appears
a whisper growing through the years
Walk not to end, but to become
the path and traveler are one.

Quaker Road
Stillness and Light
Must go down to go forward.

Entwined
Roots entwine beneath the ground
shared strength in purpose found
Minds align where visions meet
together, we make growth complete.

waiting for the cinnamon sky
no breeze no bites
why are you
hiding in my heart?

Green fields turned to ash,
soil forgot the breath of life,
rain drank poison deep.

atmospheric prediction
climbing the hill
the air hums with tomorrow
city lights flicker like guesses below
your hand finds mine
and for a moment
forecast turns to feeling.

I give you my heart
So yours may bloom pink
Love’s quiet surrender.

"close to hear"
The ocean waits below the porch
the forest leans close to hear
There is coffee, and room to breathe
and work that never hurries
Come see how the fog moves through the trees
stay long enough
to call this home with me.

you and your sexy photos
underneath my telegram'd skin
get out of my sleeping bag.

Pages grey as fog
Truth drowned in ink and silence
Freedom waits, unseen.

Cold air, warm kitchen
Hands lift, reach, rinse, and repeat.
Service hums through sweat.

city lights hum between breaths
distance disappears...

Ghost of the high peaks
Silent paws in drifting snow
Mountains fade.

"saltwater"
A shooting star and sudden spark
skin on saltwater, hearts unmarked
Drive-in kisses, dinner’s glow
hoops by the garage, laughter low
Library notes, midnight texts
love just learning what comes next.

"Love at the Corner"
Keyholder, keeper of promises
romance wishes folded in your palm
Bring the gift home
up the hill we climb
hearts catching the wind
At the corner, love waits
smiling like it always knew
we’d find our way.

"Hands in the Earth"
Born of soil and morning light
Roots run deep, hearts hold tight
Children laugh where seedlings start
Farming’s rhythm, nature’s heart
Food and love in balance stay
Earth and family lead the way.

Roots hold strong and kind
voices weave wise harmony
structure blooms through care.

"a truth unbound"
In the hush between each breath
a song awakens softly
not learned, but remembered...

God Source:
As roses unfold their petals to the sun
Let my heart open to Your light
Grant me strength to grow through every thorn
Grace to share beauty and kindness each day
and peace that blossoms quietly within me.

‘antichrist’
Peter Thiel’s Gospel:
He builds new towers out of code and creed
Fearing peace more than the sword
Preaches progress as salvation’s seed
Yet knows not whom he’s speaking for.

"refresh"
Sunlight poured, we cup our hands
rain, warmth, and seed all flow
What’s gathered now will bloom again
when winter’s rivers refresh.
Amen

mend
Along the salt-kissed air
Green hands reach for morning light
Leaves steep in ocean breath
Drawing calm from wind and wave
Medicine hums in every root
Earth teaching us how to mend.
