Eternal, a tanka

I have no answers
Only guiding light and love
For those around me
Who, wish to know more about
The only father who lives

A running pace

As a runner I

Love a race pronounced

And declared to be

Of certain length and time

For how else could I know

And be certain of steps

Without the structural norm

Of that race in mind

But then again, to what end

Will I go and at when

Once I am suddenly there

At the occuring finishing line?

For such a runner as man

And in the me of preferred know

Perhaps I will just let go

And run out of this mind

Perhaps in distance unknown, I will be free of mine

Beyond mere care

Caring is fine

And as a first step, towards walking, needed

But mind

Once bent and pulled into a compassionate grey

Must follow the path of need and want

Just to not turn around and say

"Not today, my enemy of mine"

For who else will give of their focal time

If not you when you see

That there is a genuine must and need

Laying bare before your feet

Its time to walk in a different manner

Legacy, a tanka

Fame is only this
A blessing which the breath has
Only when its gone
No true maven is ever
Recognized before their end

UnDoubt

A mystery which

Seems completely unknown

You may think that you feel

Most strongly about

But know this

For as surley as I tell you, no

There is another world out there

Is a galaxy most near

Which you have already chosen

So

Don't even waiver for a second

At the sight of flag or starry night in sky

For we all feel the wind and sea and sunlight

And no warmth will ever compare to a memory

Of her most consistent eyes

Resolving

Don't let anything

Keep you from the comfort of writing

Especially if it's something of yourself

Within the home in which you dwell

Be free to the word

To write, and to spell

Be free

Building Words

Turn these words into more than just thoughts

Would you mix them like clay

Build them like bricks

And grow them like trees in the forest of naught

As I send them to you

A most resoundingly such

(from me)

All I ask that you build back

Your own thoughts in mind

As mine once did arrive

From you to me

We are always building

A weak willed pen

Dont tell me what I will not own

You arrogant pages

You insufferable author

My life, this world, my decisions

These are all my own

And I own them more than you owned your own words

You are weak in optimism

And strong in the art of selling something false

Just so the others beneath you wont feel so alone

Don't tell me what I will not own

Watch me own it instead

And be quiet

A writers tanka

Wake up my still mind
Jolt this memory alive
In me and in time
So that I might share in words
And in these sentences find

Achievement

A dream achieved is no longer a dream

Separated from me

Just as a dream achieved is no longer a dream

But now what I once hoped to see

A reality

Stone Shores

White waters crash

On cold shores of tall stone

And sound

Like the whispers of doves

In the waking hours of old

For they were there

Most long before

And also so they will be so

When the world is young and new again

Renewed before the throne

10,000 years of which I know

I am no card player

These are my cards

They are out on the table

I am in love with you and love you

.

I am in awe of you and awe inspired by you

.

I am at peace with you and most pleased with you

.

I like seeing you and also being with you

.

Please let me remain with you and also pray with you . my girl

Saria

Thousands of verses

Someday you will wake

Into a morning of most comfortable known

Having heard the words

The sentences the night before

And the numbers by which

I have always called my own

And I will no longer be just you

But us

And in our togetherness

This we

The kind kindness which has been

Politely tucked behind the horizon

For quite sometime

We rise into a new day and shine like a life

In knowing each other more fully now

By this you will know

That you are most indefinitely

And I to you most happily

As one as one two hearts can be

For I am us and you are mine

Saria

How you care for me

Not like sunlight on the moon

Or oceans beyond the desert

Or birds without a single tree

Or bees middst frozen tundra hives

Instead

You care for me in ways my past never did

To the point where no such memory even lives

And I am both greatful and excited at this

The reality of being cared for by you

Saria

Grow (saturate)

I pray

Most fervently that

Such an understanding as ours

Never fades or falls away from form

Or evaporates like water from the falls

Into a desert storm

Or dries into a dreary valley

Of regret and regress and waterless ash

No

May our trees of faith

And trust and hope

Communicate more than the rustling leaves

Or felling of forestry ever did know

I love growing with you, Saria

Of this you know?

Saria

Unending wish

In all that I do

I wish not to fail

Or to fall pray to lesser things

Or even worse yet

To come remotely close to neglecting

Such a wonderful treasure as you are

And so I won’t

And hope and pray to not

Please dow't

How I wish to self

To remain the same

This impassioned me in name

For you

Saria

Your bright willingness

Your willingness to try, my girl
Is just one of the many reasons why
I find
You to be beyond all others
And the perfect mix
Of both poise and preparedness
In the eyes of mine

There is no other love I love
Not even the temptation for another like
Because I find
In you a bit of myself
Overwhelmingly thankful for whi
And the you which you are
And what you've modeled yourself also to be like

For we guys
Its like peering up the bright night sky
And praying that a star becomes a firelight
Just for us this one single time
And yet here you are
Bright and vibrant in my hands
And I, I am in awe of how you are so bright

Saria

This spark and warming fire

Your fire sparks me
So much so that I cannot help
But smile at the flame
And my not unwanting to burn also as well
But how do I say?
Of this I just know
That with you I will certainly
Continue to glow
Bright and burn as without burning
And so this is how
By our choice and choices we will go
Until someday when
All this smouldering will end
And appropriately
And abruptly
And most fortunately
For us both

So, Oh and oh

So until then
Will you warm me again?

Saria

I, and, end with you

I give you all that I can give

I want you more than ere before

I wish for things as days are long

I write imply of what's in store

And with this nothing something new

And here is rests its head again

And with a beating heart embued

And its colorful hope of our in end

I am an and with you

Saria

Your sensory smell

Your smell is like no season

Though the storms of spring

And the sunshine of summer

Both envy you

Just as winter wishes

That its snow were as soft as your skin

And fall complains most vocally that

Its leave cannot be as peacefully free

As your hair in the wind

How all of these times and seasons do wish

That they had

The naturally light aroma of your fragrant skin

But they don't, Saria

Its only you who do

And to me have ever been

Amazed in sense

Saria
