Poems old and new

I've time enough to wander

I've time enough to wander


At the end of a hard day
I thought I had time enough
to wander into the sunset.

But nay, I find I’m a cut
above the normal, the ordinary.
For, life recalls me to its core.

The cycle comes round.
A new breath, a fresh zephyr,
over to the merry-go-round again.

Duty and love have a way
with the recalcitrant spirit.
And I move with the rhythm.

I love the way my synergy flows
back into my being, nurturing beauty,
sweetness and a loving nature.

This newfound freedom will surely
let me find time to work and wander,
when I thus bring my mind and heart to heel.
