Creative Moments--By Thomas Canull--United States

if you look inward
you will begin to see more
of what's around you
_________________

life's illusion ..
the moment of creation
the ending begins
_________________

ripples on the pond
echoes of a moment past
... darting dragonfly
_________________

spring wind in the trees
blossoms drift to earth once more
full circle of life
