Unrelenting Blending, Wending...

 



yesterday's snow-squalls have tucked today beneath a thin white sheet



Unrelenting blending, winding 
Binding what was new to old 
Finding, where dusk drew yon awning 
New day dawning, gray or gold 

Blushing, rushing phantom river 
Coursing through a flue of dreams 
Forcing future to the suture 
Of Bygone’s unyielding seams 

Over, under, woe and wonder 
Easing seasons to thin air 
Teasing reason’s raging hunger 
With un-plundered thoroughfare 

Urging to emerging, surging 
Streams rife with life’s latest Must 
Dreams still pending, wending, mending 
Maybes with rekindled trust 

…where we stand on sands of gloaming 
Washed by foaming Bittersweet 
Crashed by waves that heave then vanish 
Over graves and under feet 

Reaching, teaching, students learning 
Caught in yearning’s undertow 
Not to grip the drip too tightly 
But hold lightly then let go 

Lest midst hug-and-tug-sparked duels 
Fueling fixed aftermath 
You or I miss God’s kiss-jewels 
Strewing Today's Very Path
