Once
words took root
in darkness
Now
light floods
My being,
But,
like
spent brass
Missing
the spark’s
darkness
of
inspiration
deep
within
My soul
turning out
phrases
dulled

Stone,
Washes
Us
Clean
Of
Old
Doubts,
Reminding
Us
We
Stand
In
Both
Light
And
Remembrance

Auf geht der Weg nach oben,
Drunter und drüber über
die ungeraden Pfade des Lebens,
Bis ins Jenseits hinauf,
wo die Ferne
Auf einmal nahe ist.
Familienfreund, Dichter und Denker,
Deine Hirngespinste leben weiter
in aller Ewigkeit in den heiligen Hallen
Dieses Lebens.
Rosen verwelken, doch deine Seele blüht,
In ewiger Liebe gebunden,
in unsrer Erinnerung fest verankert,
Der Nachhall deines Lebens
Verhallt nicht in der Stille,
Sondern, er ist ein Echo der Ewigkeit;
Bis aufs Wiedersehen

Living
In
A
Crowd
Alone
Together
With
Others,
Absent
Life’s
Railing
From
A
Drifting,
Breaking
Mind
Longing
For
Home;
Unchecked,
The
Shadows
Of
Forgotten
Self
Sail
Adrift
In
Unfamiliar
Seas
Of
Thought
Grasping
For
Memories
Like
Lifelines
Before
The
Tide
Of
Oblivion
Sweeps
All
Away

Along

Imperfectly
Noticed
Through
Vanished
Memories
Across
Time
And
Thinning
Space
Until
Beaming
Unnoticed
Into
Nothingness

Cool
Morning
Air
Rushes
In the
Window
As
Dark
Lighted
Buildings
And
Empty
Streets
Fill
My mind
With
Memories
Of
Past
And
Present
Moments
Both
Empty
And
Full
