A Glimpse of Where I’m Going jason e

The autumn leaves have fallen,
their short lives filled with grace.
Now they rest beneath snow.

I’m speechless
with so much to say.

But my eyes have grown wiser,
and a shade closer
to inspiring spring.



Before the Storm Wet the Earth jason e

A ladybug landed on my knee
as I sat alone in a meadow
awaiting the rain.

With its tiny head cocked
and a trust in my silence
it seemed to ask,

&$147;Do you think I am beautiful?”

But all I could do was look away
and wonder what stories
my face was telling.



Twelve and 12 jason e

Becoming twilight softens another midsummer day:
stars spark up, the moon pulsates, oceans flinch,
day aborts, night reclaims dignity;
everything sleeps and everything awakens—
the sun has pulled away my shadow.

Blushing dawn ascends the misty green hillside:
stars flicker out, the moon hides away,
night departs, day reclaims strategy;
everything awakens and everything sleeps—
the sun has tossed back my shadow.
