Life Is not all Balloons and rainbows...

GROUND ZERO + 14

Life 
Is not all
Balloons and rainbows

Life 
is also made
Of blues and raindrops

Days 
Followed by nights
And the sun
Followed by stars

Ever wondered
That life
Is not all
Balloons and rainbows

Listen
Be the maker of your dreams
Be your hero, take the lead
Be the captain of your ship

Because 
Life
Is not all
Balloons and rainbows

Life
Life’s not all
Balloons and rainbows

On a bus...

Commuter on a London bus

GROUND ZERO + 13


On a bus,

I caress the city

With my eyes.


Up and down,

Left and right.


Every inch

Of every yard.


On a bus

A thousand histories

Whiz past by.


A thousand faces,

A thousand lives.

Like puffy clouds On a green sky...

GROUND ZERO + 5
The white remnants
Of fickle moments
Of happiness
Melt away
On the grass of the Common.
Like puffy clouds
On a green sky.
