REMEMBRANCE DAY 1998

Plastic kernalsdrifting flecksbeyond the maybes

in my mind

call remembranceof things pastand presentwithout future limits

Long quaffed

bungs of agony...

The earth has had

her fill of strife

Land and sea

prefer another way

A way of tranquil showers

Rain falling on wet leaves

in spring sunshine

and a rainbow over all

Canopies of crystal stars

flicker and twirl

drift noiselessly to earth

like snowflakes

symbols of an ancient promise

Heart shining stars

reflecting radiance

think and feel

crystal streams of love

transformed by will

Shape structures of

sublime governance

for a new heaven

and a new earth

Appeal !

Appeal ! to God an end to war!

Perfect fellowship divine

folded

creased

yet make it mine!

Crowded streets and distant harbours

Rustling thoughts of

many minds

The air is full of

hope and dreams

love and schemes

Tanks and missiles

have no place

but fear still lingers here

Shelter usand change our heartsCause us to renounceall dartsof hateold memories ofcarnage

Start again

the wise Man said

crisp and new this Day

and so be you

Comfort me

my ancient mother

Earth and may we heal

together

Weigh my soul

against a feather

what the outcome?

Plea for mercy

and if heard

for peace and plenty

Make for me

a vineyard home

Bring me to my vine

And under mine own fig tree

Bestow on me a heartful mind.

M.K. November 11 1998
