A Birthday Poem for Cooper

Oh, my little Coopy man

Before I met you

I never could have imagined

How great a love...

How abundant the delight!

You,

My furry heart.

to your good heart

caring heart

so evident

I've never met

one like you

who shines 

love deep

who shines

love true

my anchor 

and strength

you have become

and so i'm blessed

that you're 

my one

the long view

contemplating stillness

outward in
timelessness existing
before all began
ancient trees standing
sheltering sky
me on the ground
watching birds as they fly
beauty becoming
the focus, the way
sacred path walking
going deeper each day
finding the meaning
in that which transcends
humans and culture
running straight to their end
opening perception
on history and time
taking the long view
reveals true timeline
humans are newborns
in the world of the real
Source animating
the universal life field

Winter sky
Starry night
Brilliant lights
Shining bright
Pierce the dark
Wrapped so tight
All around
Our culture found
These celestial jewels
Beam down on fools
Ignoring now
This cosmic school
Ancients saw
Vast knowledge there
Look up
See right
Gain true insight

My Views of the New Year...

brilliant sunny winter day

with shining bits of crystal snow
floating down from above
sparkling little sun catchers
on a meandering dance through air and space
