Sparkling ©2015 Ken Clinger -*- wind is blowing thru the pines the humming of the bees gentle whispers in your ears the roaring of the sea intensity of flowers solemnity of trees clouds creating patterns murmurs from the breeze -*- can you see this sparking light can you hear this sparkling sound can you feel this sparkling love between and around, us see this sparkling light hear this sparkling sound feel this sparkling love between and around, us -*- all is here and all is now the humming of the spheres motionless yet growing it whispers in your ears accepting and accepted open ears and eyes always unexpected yet always recognized -*-

A Little Bird Told Me ©2016 Ken Clinger a little bird told me you’ve a lot on your plate you’ve gone a bridge too far you’re all over the map with all your eggs in one basket you’ve got to lower the bar —- I said a fresh pair of eyes above and beyond will blow the cobwebs away if I cast a long shadow while I’m chasing rainbows will you say I’m no work and all play —- the little bird told me you’re ahead of the curve but you’re all dressed up with nowhere to go an ounce of protection’s worth a pound of cure be sure you’ve got all your ducks in a row ———————————- the little bird told me you’re coming up roses but you can’t see the forest for the trees it’s your day in the sun but your days are numbered if you wear your heart on your sleeve —- I said: I’ll go the distance and I’ll dot all my i’s and then I’ll cross all my t’s but if I sweat all the small stuff and I’m taken by storm I’ll know that’s the nature of the beast ———————————- the little bird told me if you take it or leave it or you take it all in stride if you take the plunge and you take the fall will that be a thorn in your side? —- I’ll throw my hat in the ring I’ll throw pearls before swine I’ll even throw caution to the wind but if it tickles my fancy with a tie that binds I’ll still make it thru thick and thin —- then the little bird told me if you tilt at windmills and you do it time and time again you’ll reach the tipping point where there’s no turning back and you’ll have to begin from the end ———————————-

Pieces 11:14

Pieces ©2015 Ken Clinger your beauty hides the other side nonverbal interaction do you even know what you just said is this pain or pleasure is this even real primitive excitement, and dread echoes from forgotten times bewildering attraction something unpredicted lies ahead —- meanwhile beyond space and time beyond the ebb and flow all is here and now yet moving onward sitting on a mountaintop or passing thru a crowd gliding on the music of a songbird all residing in the here and now all resolving in the here and now —- beauty as a burden I fail if I submit behind it all, a broken-hearted child promises that you imply the pieces do not fit fleeting ecstasy intense and wild the pieces come from long ago their rhymes now contradict distorting memories of when we smiled —- rising from the ashes of a broken heart in time love is here and now yet still we grow remembering eternity where all the pieces rhyme everything we are we come to know all residing in the here and now all resolving in the here and now
