Desert riverbeds
Parched and cracked from summer’s heat
Alive with rain’s breath

Desert riverbeds
Parched and cracked from summer’s heat
Alive with rain’s breath
~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~
Leaf saunters downward
Unable to cling to life
Winter has conquered
~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~
Huddled from the cold
Protection from frigid winds
Tender leaves curl
~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~
Saplings bend in wind
Because they must to survive
Man could learn from trees

Subtle energy,
A gift–to me from the ancestors.
My way of giving to others.
Not as the source,
But as a humble conduit.
I am minute,
A speck of something much larger.
Using the gentlest of touch
Or even none at all
Healing from the Divine passes.
Knowing energy–
Through the most mortal of hands.
Some call it evil,
The work of the devil,
But it is not, how could it be
When offered with love.
Perhaps its mystery scares them
Or perhaps it threatens their beliefs,
I do not know.
Such a strange twist of logic is this,
To dismiss something born of goodness
That can never harm.
If only all beliefs were as pure
And as in tune with nature as this.
Would not the world be a more peaceful, loving…
And less violent place.
~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~
Under cloud soaked skies
An aimless wanderer strolls
At peace with the world
~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~
Winter in the wings
Insects in their final throes
Succumb to the cold
~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~
Sand and sea refreash
Soothing our body and soul
Nature at it’s best
~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~
Butterflies and bees
Swarm the rainbow of flowers
Falls Thanksgiving feast
~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~
Daybreak–breath rising
Frost, icy cold to the touch
Fall is in the air
~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~
