2025 Albuquerque American Place Garden Psalms LOVE New Mexico Poems

My Valentine

I don’t know what else to say
if I Lose You
I’d loose my way

For you are the Light
that keeps me strong
When in darkness
I sit and long
For you, the one
who makes me whole

The other part
of my divided soul

And on and on, my love
together we’ll stay…
Until we’re stardust
in the Milky Way

2025 Albuquerque American Place Bird Song New Mexico Poems Poems of a Nature

Prehistoric Sky

The 12 Apostles took flight
Lumbering wings ‘gainst an ombre sky
Large wings and Long necks
Dangling feet tucked back a bit
A group effort to form up the point
Long journey ahead. Trade offs at the front.
For these prehistoric cranes
share the burden of the drain.
See, a bird alone can’t bear the brunt
of gale force winds and turbulence.
But, when leaders trade
and share their power,
the Whole Flock flies
a whole lot faster
a whole lot farther…
