Firefly
Small your light
It takes the glow of many
To mark the night.
What wisdom do you know,
What can you speak,
Of regions far beyond your realm?
Firefly help me listen
For your whisper in the night.

Benediction
May this evening grant you
The blessings of a new friend
May this evening grant you
Good times with an old friend.
And may this evening grant you
An intimation of an eternal friend;
Who will see you safely
To your home and loved ones.
And - if all this waits,
May the evening yet hold
A secret blessing for you.

Evening Before Test
Testing evening is the night before the tests
When daughter goes to bed before the early hour
And I relfect on old percentile scores
That couldn't be maintained through out my space
Realizing how foolish to have made of my days a race.

Ice Cream Parlor Observation
Mother and daughter out on the town
Stopping for ice cream with a school girl spirit
Dad does not come in to laugh with them
He remains with the big car with the big engine
On a dark night with heavy rain in South Texas.
