The churches along Northern
Boulevard are sprinkled next
To eateries, intermittent but
Fewer than the restaurants,
Of all denominations that dot
My route. A taste of America,
As befits a melting pot, its mix
Of cuisines a potpourri of all
Our origins, in tribute to where
You're from and where I'd like
To visit

It’s clear
It's such a clear, such
A bright blue day, that
Every object I see in
The distance is clearer
And brighter, reveals
Its own outlines with
Moral clarity and the
Strength of defiance.
That water tower is
Defined by its bulk
And by the lines of its
Shape held high in the
Clear blue, traced by it.
There are, for instance
Also windows that shine
Today, looking out and
Inward, brightened by
The clarity, clarified by
The brightness.
Legacy
What purpose gives you
The fulfillment of a heart
Yearning to do well, and
Leave a legacy worthy of
A purposeful heart? Does
It arise from the passage
Of time past, passing year
And year upon decade, as
If being duely relentless is
Its whole purpose, as if it
Can fill the heart with a
Direction, with purpose
A blinding sun and rippling waters
Are an inspired sight, soothing a
Tired heart calming the weakened
Nerves. It distracts the mind from
Everyday worry. The ordinary will
Be made into a feat or a fete. We
Will celebrate the running river and
Toast the brilliant sun. Allow it to
Allow us the joy of a summer day
As it turns towards autumn. Our
Thoughts are not autumnal, you
Know. They can not be now under
This bright sunlight with eddies
Capping white and clean, all in
Motion, moving forward steadily.
There's a sea out there somewhere
It will meet. River and ocean kissed
By the dazzling sun become one.
