Nevertheless…

Posted by agarrabrant

Time marches onward,

relentlessly toward post time

and I remain unprepared.

~

Nevertheless you

and I persist. We show up

and sometimes poetry comes.

Careless Remains

Posted by agarrabrant

0

When our leaders put

both reason and compassion 

aside, what is left?

~

Demagoguery,

knee-jerk ideology,

and “fairly unbalanced” news.

Reason, Oh Reason, Wherefore Art Thou?

On returning home

I find, much to my chagrin,

reason’s still on holiday.

~

It’s been quite a trip

here at home since reason has

fled for parts unknown.

Homeward Bound

With stories to tell

you head for home and to

our eager, listening ears

~

Until tomorrow,

all stories will have to wait;

after a restful night’s sleep.

More Than Suitcases

As the time draws near

for your return, what do you

hope to bring with you?

~

Broadened perspectives,

a deeper understanding,

and so many memories!

There Is A Time…

Posted by agarrabrant

As we wing from one

adventure to another,

can we find time to reflect?

~

Time for reflection

will come soon enough; for now

just enjoy your adventures.

Action For Compassion

Posted by agarrabrant

We really do care,

and we hope our leaders find

a way back to caring too.

~

And if they do not,

do we care sufficiently

to replace our leadership?

Change trains in Brussels:

an hour hardly seems time

for great poetry to sprout.

~

May small brussel sprouts

of poetry nourish you

 as you journey on.

His Lips Are Moving…

When did outright lies

come to be preferred over

basic human rights?

~

Trump’s America:

Where the only human right

is to lie despite the cost.

Beyond Explanation

In old Amsterdam

there’s a quality of light

that defies explanation

~

Appreciation

without explanation can

result in a deep delight.
