another flirtation -
this one enhanced
by the pain
of others -
the unrealized concern -
biding its time
in the dark recesses
of the mind -
finds its way
to the fore;
the sands
of life's hourglass
always fall,
don't take a single grain
for granted;
they do not count up,
only down

Cancun Morning
a sharp crescent moon
backlights the dark armies
of clouds
marching across
the morning sky;
the air is thick
with the warm potential
of the coming day;
Nature's silence
stretches to
a slowly pinkening horizon:
a wave crashes,
a bird calls,
the wind moves
through the palms;
to experience this moment
is to know beauty
