Pyramid Poetry (December 1998)

Mark Moloney, St. Louis, MO; Doug Harned; Karin Harned

O
my God,
in the dark
of darkest night
you are there
with me,
safe

All
motion
my ten toes
through the cosmos
ever seek
to be
one

Not
starving
not in jail
not quick-dying
I forget
to go
fast

Calm
of night
all around
gently humming
what joy is
heartfelt
now

Leaf
from oak
falls to earth
most gracefully
so life force
flows to
soul

Gold
it glows
below me
buzzing motor
full of fuel
rabbit’s
down

Spring
Summer
Winter Fall
Seasons of all
Spring Summer
Winter
Fall

– Doug Harned

Why
do we
desire what
is no longer?
Why not live
for this
day?

– Karin Harned
