"....have patience with everything unresolved in your heart and to try to love the questions themselves as if they were locked rooms or books written in a very foreign language. Don’t search for the answers, which could not be given to you now, because you would not be able to live them. And the point is to live everything. Live the questions now. Perhaps then, someday far in the future, you will gradually, without even noticing it, live your way into the answer.”
― Rainer Maria Rilke, Letters to a Young Poet

Dare to dream...


I skipped a beat
Took a seat
Red as meat
What a feat!

Caught your eye
A quick high five
Was it hi? No bye?
Please don't lie!

Leaves, trees wore no more
T'was one summer sore
I heard raindrops pour
One, two, three, four!

This and that
You said with a pat
Like a 9 lives cat
That on the mat sat!

I saw it clear
It wasn't fear
Chance love sheer
Far but near

Walked hippity hop
Heart world atop
It beat non stop
Pop, pop, pop

Is that the way?
Know you may
C'mon, have your say
I'm not going astray

 Take my hand
Your wish my command
I'll follow like a band
Every footstep on sand 

 A way, can you find?
If you don't mind
I need to unwind
From this grind

 Oh, it's but a dream
An endless stream
'Stop' I scream
A fantasy it did seem..
