@ehBeth,
I laugh constantly,
Everything seems quite absurd,
Is life just a joke?

@firefly,
Is life just a joke?

Laughter silenced now
that so much violence goes
on over the world.

@ossobuco,
On, over the world
Is the firmament above,
Canopy of stars

@firefly,
Canopy of stars,
that I don't understand there
in the mohave.


This is true, as I am night blind, I see few if any stars, and I first learned that after a ski trip when we got caught with a flat tire in the Mohave. I didn't know I was different before that night.

@ossobuco,
in the mohave
'neath black velvet firmament
I'm kneeling in awe

@vonny,
I'm kneeling in awe
Of the power of windstorms,
Tornado's fury

Tornado's fury
Destroying all before her
'Cease' I cry out 'Cease'

@vonny,
'Cease' I cry out 'Cease'
But the pain still continues,
My cries go unheard

@firefly,
My cries go unheard
I bow my head in sorrow
join my sobs to theirs

@vonny,
Join my sobs to theirs,
Those who bury their loved ones,
Innocent victims of war

@firefly,

those victims of war
unsuspecting children and
families wept for

thousand million sons of war
Cry me a nation

Cry me a nation,
cry the dispossess'd, moving
away fast, or slow.

@Daisy Ryder,
Life, a mystery,
full of tedium followed
by surprise and joy.

By surprise and joy
The bad days are balanced out,
Strength becomes renewed

@firefly,
Strength becomes renewed.
And just as the flowers bloom,
The mind is opened.

The mind is opened
To the glory of the world.
New beauty is born.

@Lustig Andrei,
New beauty is born
Out of the dust of the earth
Let the soft rain fall
