Wishing I hadn’t,
wishing I could
Going through the motions
—of love

Wishing I hadn’t,
wishing I could
Going through the motions
—of love
(Villanova Pennsylvania: April, 2019)
Intermingled,
but not together
In your presence,
but still alone
Hearing your words,
but not your meaning
Leaving your house
—so far from home
(Villanova Pennsylvania: April, 2019)
The truth redeemed,
The past reclaimed
—within your final hour
(Villanova Pennsylvania: April, 2019)
Everything…
is all I ask
In all you say
—and all you do
(Villanova Pennsylvania: April, 2019)
If you live your life correctly,
death walks close by your side
To constantly remind you,
that time’s not on your side
Your choice on how to handle,
to ignore or then befriend
Will change your life completely
—as each day begins again
(Villanova Pennsylvania: April, 2019)
The beauty of a Rose…
in the heart of one who knows
That love’s a gift of time,
both temporal and sublime
The seedling of a wish,
future memory to enlist
That hope may till the fields
—budding Roses to conceal
(Villanova Pennsylvania: April, 2019)
Painting with words,
Sculpting with phrases,
Singing the moments away
(Villanova Pennsylvania: April, 2019)
The physics of divinity,
atheists chide
Pews filled with charlatans,
believers on trial
Trapped in their reasoning,
with all logic stretched thin
Building walls to keep light out
—and the darkness within
(Villanova Pennsylvania: April, 2019)
Stretching and pulling,
the Universe goes on
Cosmology’s wonderment,
each day a new dawn
The Spacetime Continuum,
today’s Top 40 hit
Tomorrow inherent,
unless we’ve been misled
The deeper the probing,
the ‘Bigger the Bang’
What Einstein, Godel,
and Penrose began
The good news for knowledge
as we err and refute
Like a tide ever changing
—to immerse in its truth
(Villanova Pennsylvania: April, 2019)
I need to bring more Poetry
into my Prose…
To spill the blood richer
flowing out of my veins
To reseason the words
going into the fire
To spread the wings open
—on a future untold
(Villanova Pennsylvania: June, 2016)
