the salmon:

this endeavor
and just float to the sea
... float to the sea

he installed a water spray
... for a tree protecting

for the tendrils
of new vine roots
but love at any time
can bear instantaneous fruit

when end the seal clubbing

Igniter

As the stars ignite
the dark night
so
recognition and delight
in a student's eyelight
do a teacher's
heart excite

Peace Train Coming

The eagle's warlike screams
destroy Baghdad babies' dreams
But a peaceful sunrise comes
with His magic wanding beams

Deeper Footprints

A 300 pound man
walked along the beach,
his deeper footprints
catching more tidewater
...at night reflecting
more stars

all romantic love is the projection
of infinite love which waits to be discovered
like silent springs within ones own heart
