Performance Art For Jack Layton
Music inspires our souls
to seek perfection
in a world wide web of notes.
Chords bring harmony
to those whose hearts
are open to the unusual.
Prejudice and despair
have no place
in the concert of light.
We dance in tandem
with the outer world
awaiting our turn at the song wheel.
For one who sang so well
there should be no lasting tears
only the harmonious sound
of his amazing performance.

Tribute to Jack Layton
He was part
of our national pysche
the one that makes Canada
proud of its nature.
His eternal optimism
and caring for ordinary people
shines beyond death.
Its simple message
is to be on board
the ship of hope and grace,
sail forward into the future.
Respect your fellow travellers
Accept your destiny.

August Blues
Perhaps it is the premature falling
of green leaves. How sad they look
on the arid grass. We have nurtured
their presence all summer
but death comes in spite of our efforts
and we are feeling the loss
even before it happens.
