Veracity


Feel no regret
For being ever real
The false has no place

In this heart

Only children can live
In love and in trust
You have proved
The heart of the child
The honest and true
And I love
In you

Never Sit Out


Waffles and falafels she said
The perfect dance of foods
Launch the day to a fools delight
Waffles fat and fluffy
Cream and strawberries
Such a thing will carry you on
Permanently into the night
And dance all the day through the parks
And the streets
Let the reflections and sun dogs
The chill of the air
Kiss frost in those cheeks
And look out day crowds
For it is we who will dance
Twirls and bows
We split you in bowls
And tired we arrive
Falafels, its time
Fat peas and olive oils
Fried to deep goodness
Reenergize for night
As we pirouette to dusk light
We fly to the sky
And fall with the flakes
I am happy I asked
You out on this dance
Had I sat this one out
I would never know this thrill
Swirl through the seasons
Live for all reasons
Take every dance
Take every chance
