Amazement

At times, I have
nourished my days
on simple
amazement

Of Infinite Creation
generating
each through each
time upon time
never duplicating
the rhyme

Of vast varieties
proliferating
one after one
each unique
beyond reach

Of earthly imagination.

When I ponder
this incredibility
I do not question
validity
Amazement is mine
There is a
Divine!

The Dream Eater

She knows how it feels to eat dreams
As food on the table, bills to be paid
Where obligations consume great schemes
Devoured in bits as they slowly fade.

She once held a bright dream to realize
Gave it love and watched it grow
But her dream failed to materialize
An anticipated date that did not show.

Whenever opportunity came, it seemed
There were always previous priorities
In time, disappointment was not redeemed
To allow an appearance of her abilities

In some drab future, she did lament
As shadows of dreams sometimes arose
Between the wedge of duty and discontent
An aching sore which refused to close

Each civic, committee and family date
Served her belief that there still was time
To attend the passion which lay in wait
Patiently postponed far beyond her prime

In some drab future, she did consent
To receive recognition for deeds done
Awards and prizes for all years spent
Yet for her dreams, there were none.

She knows how it feels to eat dreams
As food on the table, bills to be paid
Where obligations consume great schemes
Devoured in bits as they slowly fade
