All The Lonely Years / All The Dreams

All the lonely years-
All the dreams-
And now in my old age
At last
A grandchild.

I Do Not Remember

I do not remember
Most of what I've been-
Life is lost as its lived
Also within.

In An Instant

IN AN INSTANT

In an instant
Before we see Night
We may never again
Feel the Light.

The morning trees

THE MORNING TREES

The morning trees,
The morning light-
Another day,
Another life.

Every Poem Is Another Effort

EVERY POEM IS ANOTHER EFFORT

Every poem is another effort
To make the Unknown-
Smile.

THE INNER JOY

The inner joy
writing the poetry

There Is No Small Poem

THERE IS NO SMALL POEM

There is no small poem
Small enough
To define Man
before God.

Not one line remembered

NOT ONE LINE REMEMBERED

Not one line remembered-
Not one poem taken to heart-
Nothing.

More Than Enough

MORE THAN ENOUGH

One small poem
Is more than enough
To remind us
Life can be Beautiful.

G-D Is My Answer

G-D IS MY ANSWER

G-d is my answer
G-d is my only answer
I am afraid
Will G-d help me?
