A Friend

What has changed over these many years?
Many things, if not everything.
This desire, so stubborn, so bullheaded,
yet remains.
To sit here, to ponder, to wonder,
to watch the branches of the trees,
and dream of others places, 
other people, and other times. 
To find the words as they venture forth
and give them form and life.
Or is it the other way around?

Tea Leaf Fortune Teller

Steam is escaping the kettle.
The cup waits in anticipation.
The tea is indifferent.
Life is changing states.
What comes next
is entirely predictable.

Un Autre An

we are still here
walking the path
looking everywhere
feeling everything
breathing

are you
