warm kitten sitting
begins to climb aging tree
oops! it is me!

women

women

we the women
keep peace in a tumbling world
but we grow tired

forgetting from where comes strengh
we fade in winds of dispair

winds of change

winds of change

blowing breezes
change the dancefloor in the trees
everybody twirls

sunflowers

sunflowers

Sunflowers
shrinking in the summer heat
fade into winter

raindrop

the raindrop
heaven falls from the sky
rose petals dance

peace

peace

wanting nothing
desires vanish in the wind
then comes quiet peace

today

today

night of fitful sleep
dawn's light streaming through window
begins a new day
