Once Upon a Time Poems

In Simple Faith

Unsure of my purpose,
I listen
to sky and sea,
speaking in unison,
in simple faith.

“Change your mind;
slide that magnetic strip
rich with love,
so life may open.
Don’t be scared to fall.

Through the rain of tears,
a heart can unbolt
the celestial vault,
to stir a moist melody,
glistening in radiance.

All feasts are for fools
who can die and live,
bamboozled,
many times over,
in only one life.

Leave the slush of sorrow
that distorts the thoughts;
with a bit of starlight,
plan a voyage to yourself
on destiny’s cue.

Thus, through a stellar theme,
though so far away,
the moon can leave its footprints
in your mornings,
as Heaven heaves with bliss.”
