Los Feliz
soft trail along the hillside in a winter park of sunlight
foot falls under oak warm faces smile out
crisp sounds radiant beams of hope
gabrielinos born here forgotten
considerable influence of foreign tongues gone mad
a corporal's name mispronounced in trade
a corporeal life traded away
stars stream at
night
beauty here among peaceful moments
light, camera, action award/reward
the real love peels away like old lead paint
eyes that glimmer with heart felt desire hold us
together
far away lands in far away times where to
now?
keep us here like captured light
lost into invisible smoke
at sunrise above
hilly footpaths
this was always meant to be a gift given away
this was always meant to be a place to search out
this vast desert for an oasis
this vast shoreline for an anchoring bay
this loneliness for some momentary
companion
friendship
lover
shade from winter heat or summer cool
this was the path this was the arrival
walk up to the vista destination
watch the birds fly away
to a distant ocean of
happiness among us
keep searching out there
