The Thunderstorm of Aging

A poet’s reflection on growing older

Growing decades-old is a strange thing — it feels good in waves like a thunderstorm’s preamble.

Emotions seep out of our bone marrow — tentative sprinkles to torrential downpours.

Sharing stories is our life purpose, poet’s dream.

Sandy beach’s offering: tumultuous stormy sea postscript —

sunkissed granules of warming reassurances cradle our tense bodies while ocean waves kiss our feet, lap our legs, our bodies our immeasurable lives lived.

We survive as one microcosm — separate together.

Our brain waves cascade, collide soothe, subside

immersed in the great learning cosmic experience milky way galaxy moony night.

If life is but a dream, what happens when

we awaken?
