Endings are endings
final
finite
but only in this world
this realm
there are others we can visit
as we leave this one
of this I am sure
because I believe
in the unbelievable
and cast aside all fear
to pursue
the incomparable
adventure.

I went into the woods
to count the countless trees,
where three hundred years
is young,
found they indeed have a number
the ancient mossy stumps of giants
felled long ago
host seedlings that may never
grow
to the heights of their ancestors
while the wind through the pine boughs
are whispered legends, myths in Mi’kmaq
quietly told to others who will never understand.

Hey all! It’s been a while I know; I’ve been super busy getting Cicadas ready and writing several short stories at the same time.
I did manage to get the new website up and running and you can find signed paperback copies of Compass there at a discount!
Also feel free to sign-up for an email subscription and I promise not to bombard you with junk but only good stuff!
