Pure harmony of nature
A lesson to learn

Without Gratitude (Tanka)
Without gratitude
Expecting seems like folly
Disastrous mix
One day they will awaken
And all they had will be gone
~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~
Though This Shell Withers
Though this shell withers
Returning to whence it came
I shall never die
Time cannot kill the spirit
For the spirit’s always been
It is eternal
Without substance to hinder
Therefore unrestrained
In this I take great comfort
That there is–eternal life
~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~
A Kaleidoscope
A kaleidoscope
Colors of the rainbow
Ever changing.
Each twist a new pattern.
Pointed toward the light…
More vibrant are its wonders
While darkness…
Depresses its beauty
Leaving it muted and bland.
Such is the life of man.
Each moment…
A twist of the kaleidoscope
New and fresh.
Vibrant when lived in the light,
Depressing and deadly
When lived in darkness.
How easy it is to wallow,
Rotting from the blackness in life
If one is consumed,
When the light and love
Is well within reach
…If one chooses to grasp it.
