Four geese flew low
preparing for the long flight south
it is always comforting to hear
that soft ruffle of their wings
then I know that a part of nature
is blood and bone as are we ~
traversing life on the silent wings of
ancestors, family and friends.
“You are born to fly, and in dreams you remember the soul has wings.”
~ Robert Moss, Australian historian
Scattered clouds of yesterday
adrift in the evening sky ~
gilded by tonight’s setting sun.
“The sky and the sun are always there.
It’s the clouds that come and go.”
~ Rachel Joyce,
The Love Song of Miss Queenie Hennessy
Yesterday vanished into memory,
today ~ a birthday delight with family,
tomorrow is an open, uncharted road.
“I have gone into yesterday and tomorrow
and both were a real as today ~
which is like the dreams of ghosts!”
~ Robert E. Howard, author
(1906 ~ 1936)
