Echoes Remain

Post by carndo » Sat May 12, 2018 2:53 pm

echoes
remain
within the hour
serine
yet somehow syncopated
in that edge of time
serenaded
just beyond that whisper
precarious
within the resonance
where recollections
find that purpose
dialects of voices
lost within

In A Simple Moment

Post by carndo » Thu Nov 08, 2018 11:38 am

to some I'm lonely
and yet for the most part
that isn't the case
I'm alone
because I enjoy my solitude
I find my peace within my own mind
some understand it
some never do
reasons that find their own place
within those echoes
in silence
celebrations
made
within a certain harmony
invoked
in a simple
moment

In Horizons

Post by carndo » Thu Nov 08, 2018 11:48 am

clouds finding their rhythm
in horizons
soaring in a summer day
where time matters not
tapestries
serenaded
within a certain symphony
reaching moment to moment
honored thresholds
that cleave
with a heartbeat
incinc
where nature is found

Beyond The Echo

Post by carndo » Thu Nov 08, 2018 11:57 am

conjecture
made in that premise
where resonance
finds its own tone
does it matter?
somehow I think not
but somehow we all
find our own rhythm
in life
and out own path
that we follow
that diction
held beyond the echo
where moments
find a certain need

Moonrises Found

Post by carndo » Thu Nov 08, 2018 3:08 pm

moonrises found
beyond that comet
where those stars
rage within that call
constellations sing
in harmony
yet soar
foot loose in that universe
distinctive
in that moment of time

The Abstraction

Post by carndo » Thu Nov 08, 2018 3:16 pm

marginalized
unrecognized
bent out of kilter
to the point of
being abstract
for those observing
but somehow it matters not
only that the art continues
somehow maybe Picasso
would appreciate
what was being done here
But who can say?
still it's a work in progress
moment by moment
that tone is found
next finding the right texture
maybe a certain color
will enhance what's within these boundaries
only time will tell
still...
the right stroke
needs to be found
here in the artist's hands
another creation
may find some validation
but what is seen
is shared by others

A Catch Twenty Two

Post by carndo » Fri Nov 09, 2018 8:14 am

dreams within that past
where memories are found
within those pages
sought into that miracle of time
celebrated moment by moment
where in results
find there place in time
And the answer is?
who knows
it's a catch 22
anything can happen
circumstances change
at random
leaving one wondering
What the hell is going on?

Go From There

Post by carndo » Fri Nov 09, 2018 8:19 am

Here I am
lying in bed
without a clue
of what lies before me
my future
at best
uncertain
yet somehow I'll manage
even if things take longer
than I imagine
still....
somehow I'm unsettled
confused
but sometimes you have to
just go with the ride
make plans later
when things become clear
find that path that you need
and go from there

Currents

Post by carndo » Fri Nov 09, 2018 10:00 am

Currents
rising through a channel
continuing into the sea
What bay?
probably a more southern route
with the turn of the tide
specifics?
can't be completely sure
but one can watch a certain direction
of the breeze
to determine
its destination
from there
it's simple math
in following nature's course

Continue On

Post by carndo » Fri Nov 09, 2018 10:04 am

Nauseated
from the stupidity
of the events
days before
but life gives one challenges
some that you see
some that you don't
with that
one continues
with journeys
that flow ahead
the trick is
to learn to deal with them
and if life gives you lemons
you learn to make a good lemonade
and continue on

Free Thinking

Post by carndo » Mon Dec 17, 2018 1:03 pm

Free thinking
go where you can out of the box
touch in ideas
that hasn't been tried before
celebrate
a new train of thought
throw out
preconceived ideals
that only
regarnish trails
that are worn out
sometimes life
shows one ways
where one learns
to shine
blazing a new journey
that somehow
must be followed

Pleasures

Post by carndo » Sat Feb 16, 2019 10:38 pm

pleasures

somehow find their meaning



maybe it's the eyes

or the softness of your whisper



the smell of vanilla

fills the room

as you walk in



and I hear your laughter



and those secrets that we share

somehow make us smile



but it matters not

only the time we spend together



reaching for a single night



so yesterdays we won't look for



only today

is reached for



yes

i want to feel your touch

A Doorway Within The Night

Post by carndo » Sat Feb 16, 2019 10:39 pm

shelters should give
a place for those
who need refuge

a simple lodge
one's rest one's head
without judgement

a doorway
within the night

a corner
to find silence

maybe a meal
for the voyage
ahead

Is that really
asking too much?

Word On The Street

Post by carndo » Sat Feb 16, 2019 10:41 pm

you see a mumbling man
talking to himself

and you whisper
where is the hope?

there is a lady pushing
a shopping cart
full of flowers
simply trying to live

and you whisper
where is the love?

you see two men
walking to cars in the red light
cleaning windows
only wanting a dollar or two

and you whisper
where is the caring?

if you look in their eyes
you find the despair

and you wonder
why is this happening?

some things do need to change
if only for a few

Finding Those Smiles

Post by carndo » Sat Feb 16, 2019 10:46 pm

finding those smiles
along where
somehow it's needed

even if some don't
realize they need it

that harmony
found in an echo

that silence
honored

where new light
is sought

and a tide of time
is gently washed
wave after wave

suspended
in a new horizon
