Homeless wandering, on the tightrope wobbling, borderline crossing, all the time balancing, keep on striving, dare the dream aspiring, on the way striding, a true path following, to the edge exploring, love's burdens lifting, hope-strength sustaining, far friends keeping, all together reaching...

Fragment
Poem fragment:
Restless yearning longing searching heartbeats
We fail and we dream; the dreams are dangerous.
But what living give give giving love isn't?

A way of seeing
To be revised...maybe:
We are wistful dreamers
and fitful sleepers
Exploring our waking dreams
Discovering what is, instead of what seems
Teary eyes wide open for love's sake
trudging through our sleeping wakes
Give me a vision that can see
all the things that we can be
and a mind's eye that doesn't blink
nor turn from daring ways to think
And then we may walk amidst those castles in the air
and know that the distance between here and there,
not greater than doubt and not less than true,
is simply the distance between me and you.

Run On II
E pluribus un
um, wondering where we're
going full speed
ahead there's hope to be
found a lucky penny on the street
wise kids just searching for
love makes the world make
sense seems to be missing
out of bounds and not coming
back breaking work just making
ends to these fairy
tales told by the fire
light a flame for the
future is now
present

Run On
We are
one time when the world lived in
peace is possible if we
believe me it's
true faith seeks
love others with your
soul songs fill the night
sky is full of
stars twinkling in her
dreams are made of
hope waits within
there is someone
more.
