when we truly realize that we are all alone is when we need others the most

Ronald Anthony

munificence trust


what remains
this silent vigil
in need
indeed
in deed
the soul lays bare
for all to see
for finding unwanted
yet desires be clear
guilty of infliction
ache and grief
guilty of reverence
selfless relief
verdicts be fair
the facts present
and known
what works
what won’t
choices
together?
and how remains
or if…….

an empty box filled



inside this big tin carcass
is a tin box
this box is empty
it would contain the love
and joy
and experience
a child should always know.
one reflects into these spaces
and often sees and hears
echoes
of nothing.
now i peer and hear
and receive love
and joy
and experience
from my new heart
newly opened to receive
the life of experience
the future of promise
you bring to me
my friend.
