“Following dark winter’s strife,
a warm air rises,
teemed with life.
Birth, rebirth,
as the waiting die.
Old love, new love
sprouts wings to fly.”

fly
on wings
sail the sky
to chase the wind
soar

the Creator does not fail
a time to adjust

all animals must adapt
man is not an exception

Poem:
.
paid the bills, no money left over
only dreams of being in the clover
contemplating what to do when I win the lotto
you just wait has been my motto
dreams with no action never work
believing in good luck is just a quirk
to put that cherry on the banana split
maybe tomorrow I’ll get around to it
what’s not to enjoy about living
glad to multiply the joy by giving
having a family by birth or by choice
just too many reasons to rejoice
do we really need a reason for being
what if we all were just dreaming
forget the questions, let your soul soar
know that happiness is rewarded by more
