It’s hard going to /
singles’ dances and hearing/
- Somebody to Love.

At their first meeting/
he was so exhausted that/
he was boring him.
I said she should take/
off her sandals to connect/
with Earth. I didn’t.
When reality/
TV turned more important/
than me, I turned off.
When you are
in a rose garden
with Abe,
Psyche,
a great spirit warrior,
the Spirit of Life,
a foal and moose,
Paul Revere,
the setting sun,
and America the Beautiful,
you can’t help but weep
with gratitude and joy,
even when a teenaged church class
comes rushing through,
looking for Love
in all the wrong places.
“All Creatures of Our/
God and King”, heard in the art/
garden, lifts my hands.
