Reflection

It we
start talking to each other,
the
other or we ourselves will
tell
the other our disappointments.
This
takes time and the aging process.
We didn’t
finish a plan or a hope.
We
made a promise never done.
The
other might have died or
moved
away and that’s that.
Or we
could make a phone call
and make
a confession of
our
sins or broken promises
or we
can forgive others.
If we
get this we can get what
the
Catholic Church has in
the Sacrament
of Reconciliation
or “Going to Confession”.

GHOSTS
Of course there is no such thing as ghosts.
Yet the people of our past are still walking
with us. They are still whispering to us.
And if they yelled at us they still do
when we break their
rules for us.
Their presence –
their voices -
still sit there in our choices. Solution:
listen to those voices, analyze them,
accept the best and discard the rest.
Easier said than done.
Become our own person while we
still have time and talk to our children
about what we have figured out so far.

THEMES
Do we all have our themes,
the things we’re off on?
Like sports, the weather,
politics or religion?
Or are you like me – a
not knowing myself sort of person?
I’m filled with constant Inner babble
and a million ideas a minute?
I need to sort. Writing helps.
Death is scratching my windows –l
like branches against my house –
but I also want life and a few more years.
Health and food – they are not on my radar.
God, what do you have to say about all this?
