Diamonds in the Sky

They twinkle, like the bright, wide eyes of a curious child, or the worn faded ones of a wise, all-knowing elder.

They dance, to a beautiful, delicate song, that can only be heard by the heavens.

Some say they are our ancestors, long past but still watching over us from above. 

They sparkle, like the diamonds that hide in dark caves.

They shine, like the sun reflecting on the water, glimmering across the lake.

They fall, like everything will someday, because nothing lasts forever, nothing pure can stay.

  • Your Game

    I've been here before; I know your ways.
    You think you have me in a bind? I wouldn't say the same.
    It comes so easy, moving so fast.
    But you don't suspect, that I do have a past.
    I'll play your little game. It's always the same.
  • This Encyclopedia


    Alexa what time is it? 
    Hey Siri, what's the weather for today?
    A calculator; a dictionary; an encyclopedia,
    ready at your convenience.
    But nobody is reading dictionaries for fun. 
  • He had a Dream

    He had a dream
    But not one of soaring skies and indigo seas.
    A man who believed
    That we could all live happily in harmony.
    He is long gone
    But his dream lives on.
    Come sisters and brothers
    Together we will stand
