Silver Lake poetry box: A sampling

The first poem Peleg Top put in the poetry box outside his Silver Lake home:

“Bless This Journey”

I look ahead and see no destination

I look behind and see thousands of questions

I look down and hear my heart melting

I look forward and take a deep breath

The next step could be the one

that drowns me

that drops me into my abyss

The next step could be the one

that leads me into my unknown

my bliss

my glee

my truth

Doubt

concern

confusion

are no longer in charge

I bless this journey

with moments of delights

where time disappears

and truth emerges

I bless this journey

with new insights

that steer me

to the place

where I regain

my power, my spirit, my joy.
