Loose Rhythms

The mysterious horizon beyond my home base in Soquel.

Loose Rhythms

3/16/10

From rigid history

of marching to

beat society drums

with it's judgments

around right, wrong,

through religion, education,

family appropriate upbringing,

and political, national

patriotism to uphold,

which shaped conscience

I took on

influenced during youth,

somehow evolution emerged,

because experiences encountered

born of choices

effected world view,

the lessons learned

for better, worse,

developed my outlook

on individual level

within shared generation,

us baby boomers

unwilling to settle,

embrace status quo,

became pioneering adventurers

wanting new horizon

believing there's more

when dancing life's

improvised loose rhythms.
