NAPKIN WORDS #36 2011 - Dedicated to Mike Prevor

1. KNOWLEDGE
People think they know.

They want and wish to know.

But they don't.

It is as simple as that!

2. THE WONDROUS HEART
Their heart is what will recall you.

Your heart will fail you at sometime or
another.

Don't worry about it.

For when it fails, there are those hearts
who will always recall your heart and
how you lived!

3. THE BIG IF OF SPEECH
If one always pays attention, hears what they
themselves are saying, they may very well insure
that they say nothing that would hurt another!

4. WISDOM
One must dream dreams, instead of imagining
dreaming!

5. HOW IT ALL BEGAN
There, where roots took hold, the great tree
of life began.

At first, there was nothing but wind of time,
musing quiet.

Long growing, the tree rose and created sky.

Soon, clouds, sun, moon and stars settled into
darkness and created light.

It began – we became.

Still here, we ask, “Where we are going?”

Lastly, we ask a question:

“Why?”

It is because of these two questions, we know there’s
a “Who,” else who are we asking?

6. THE DEPARTURE
The only way one fades away gently, is not
to appear when they applaud your name!

7. THE JUNO LOOK
Try to face everything. You cannot face
everywhere if it means only looking
to your left and right!

NIGHT REASONING OF THE HEART

My heart thoughts lay
strewn upon my
pillow.

Gently they push my plea
of sleep towards
dreams.

In those few moments of
reverie,
I discover a wondrous
Eden.

This land is a place for
love,
no passport,
no visa,
just a place to hold
me warm and hear
my heart.
