Ice Crystals

With water locked within its space

Its size it grew like fragile lace

Each drop contained in frosty white

Reflected back the cold moonlight

Beneath his feet in crunching sound

The ice gave way to frozen ground

Where all things dream in still repose

Awaiting spring and warmth that glows

But just for now as if in sleep

All future thoughts remain complete

Beneath the crystal ice

In life there are always changes

With lots we can’t foresee

But that should never stop us

From wanting to be free

Free from all the shackles

That traps us in this space

In a world that is so restrictive

It holds back all our pace

To fly around the heavens

In search of answers true

In an ever winding axis

That dances around the blue

This cord that from us wanders

Will one day just release

And we’ll return to heaven

And ever lasting peace

Idle Thoughts 8

Most people chase a reality that does not exist

In the misguided pursuit of Utopia.

Arrogance is at home with a fool

And I have been a fool

Too many times in my life.

Imagination is the tapestry of the mind

and we all should find time to let it flow
