Lover’s Poem

When we meet
We shall touch the stars
The little children will laugh at us
And to each, we shall teach love

And we’ll float on the soft summer breeze
I’ll carve our initials in the clouds
And in a fleeting moment
That which is not tangible shall succumb

And our love will become inimitable

We’ll explore the silver sun
And search for the silver man
We’ll mix the colors on the palette
And paint the world

Then we’ll say goodbyes
And no regrets will there be
Only happy memories we share
And our initials in the clouds

A Soul On The Wing

Posted on December 30, 2023 by Joe Merkle

A puppet on a celestial string

the dance of moonbeams 
across cresting waves
lends to daydreams
of hopes I’ve yet to attain

footprints in the sand
stragglers left behind
ballads are sung by a heavenly band
urging me to stay aligned

waves lapping at my feet
I stare into a starlit sky
this human form seems obsolete
its existence hard to justify

I’m just a contestant in this game show
a puppet on a celestial string
a player in God’s minstrel show
a soul on the wing

sun peeks above the horizon
casting tangerine across the dawn 
I’m tripping on nature’s psilocybin
this heavenly phenomenon
