Double Rainbow

When you love someone you love their journey  - Alicia Keys

It is nice in the sky for two
to arc together in each other’s glow

Sometimes in times of quarantine
distance must be arced by memory

Feeling like you’re in jail right now
make of it what you will, or look to these
Anne Frank
I live in a crazy time

Victor Frankl
Between stimulus and response 
there is a space. 
In that space is our power 
to choose our response


John on the island of Patmos
You have set before me 
an open door 
which no man can close

Under the Bed

News, Relationships / tagged Anxiety, Covid19, Fear, Isolation, Nightmare / May 2, 2020 / by neil_2015_wordpress@neilmeili.com
In this dream between worlds

There may sometimes be
monsters astir under the bed
foul of breath and orange of face

If you are fortunate enough
to not be sleeping alone
reach out and touch 

He will go away
