I am a genetic
Dead end
What have I to offer,
of life, of knowledge?
What wisdom
Would I impart?
Only this….
Love the dark.
Dance in the wind.
Savor the rain’s embrace…
Few are our days,
Deep is the night..
Dark – yet full of friends
If you allow yourself
A quiet mind.
The trees have secrets
To tell…. Listen
To their soughing, sighing, song…
If you allow yourself to hear…
You will find peace…
Childless, I may be
But this silence
Is not a curse…
Rather a backdrop
On which to paint
Understanding
And a special kind of
Knowing
And being known…
By the dark
By the stars
By the cool night air…
All that is quiet
In this loud world
I bequeath to you…
Childless though I may be…
That you may know
The pure, unadulterated joy
I have known….
Nights…
Alone in the dark…
unafraid…
