Clear Water


CLEAR WATER
Rocks, boulders, undertow
cleanses me
Rocks, boulders, undertow
pulls me under
Rocks, boulders, undertow
drowns me
Rocks, boulders, undertow
releases me

For The Weary



For The Weary
Weary is Sadness
Weary is Lonley
Weary is Discord
Weary is Boredom
Weary is Wanting
Weary is Solice
Weary is Loss
Weary is Tired
Weary is Death
I am Weary

Color Abounds




Color Abounds
Color Abounds...
if you looks close enough,
color abounds
if you close your eyes,
color fades and darkness awaits
Look close enough,
color surrounds and abounds,
wanting you to drink it in
Red, yellow, blue and green
Color abounds in my heart
wanting you to drink
from the rainbow within me.
Sweet Sherbet finds my mouth and,
sadly yours is bitter on my tongue

Unknowingly,

we plow the dust of stars,

blown about us by the wind

and, drink the universe

in a glass of rain

The Reason


The Reason


My stomach's sick

Sick can't cope

Sick, can't breath

Sick, can't take the stress

I'm bleeding, bleeding inside

Do I bleed to death?

Do I accept the reason?

Yes, I accept the reason,

for the reason is myself

The sound of the gun
hurt my ears
The sound of the gun
startled me
The sound of the gun
wounded me
made me bleed
made me dead
The sound was you
telling me
you loved me

In A Dream

In A Dream

I saw you in a dream
it is about dreams anymore
You snuggled on a leaf
drinking of the sweet nectar
that nature left for you

I approach only for you to
take flight, turn, look at me,
knowing me and leaving me

Left me, left me
only to wonder who you are
and, why did you leave me?

In the meadow



In The Meadow
In the meadow, you lie down
You lie down
content, calm
Sweet grass is ours
life is serene
life is ours
Suckle sweet dear
Lie down, nourish your wild body
Life is ours
Life is yours
Live

Missing Someone?


Here is a poem I wrote for anyone who is missing someone they love because, I sure am.




LAST NIGHT

LAST NIGHT I CRIED MYSELF TO SLEEP
THE THOUGHT OF YOU MADE ME
THINKING OF YOUR SACRIFICE
I CRIED MYSELF TO SLEEP
THINKING OF YOUR FACE
I CRIED MYSELF TO SLEEP
THINKING OF YOUR CHOICE
I CRIED MYSELF TO SLEEP

LAST NIGHT I CRIED MYSELF TO SLEEP
YOU PUT YOURSELF OUT THERE
I CRIED MYSELF TO SLEEP
YOU IN YOUR SPHERE, I IN MINE
I CRIED MYSELF TO SLEEP
ARE WE GOING NOWHERE

LAST NIGHT I CRIED MYSELF TO SLEEP
I COULD NOT STOP
I FELL INTO A SADNESS THAT NO ONE COULD AFFORD
I CRIED MYSELF TO SLEEP
MY MIND IS IN DISCORD
I CRIED MYSELF TO SLEEP

LAST NIGHT I CRIED MYSELF TO SLEEP
MY LOVE FOR YOU CONTINUES EVEN IN MY DREAMS
I CRIED MYSELF TO SLEEP
MY HEART AND SOUL STEAMS
I CRIED MYSELF TO SLEEP
YOU ARE THE MOONBEAMS OUTSIDE MY WINDOW

LAST NIGHT I CRIED MYSELF TO SLEEP
I KNOW YOU ARE FEELING THE SAME WAY
PLEASE DON’T CRY YOURSELF TO SLEEP
SLEEP IN HEAVENLY PEACE
I LOVE YOU FOREVER AND ALWAYS
CONTINUE ON YOUR PATHWAYS
WE SHALL BE FOREVER TOGETHER
DREAMS WILL BE GATEWAYS TO OUR FUTURE
LAST NIGHT I CRIED MYSELF TO SLEEP

Spring


I LOVE SPRING! Winter is just so much work! I am so very happy when the snow melts away! Flowers and birds and bees, too. I love spring and spring loves you! What does spring remind me of you ask? Well, fresh air, beautiful colors, blue sky, dry ground, new life. That's what spring reminds me of. Easter baskets of days gone by and colorful Easter eggs for all to enjoy. I love spring and spring love you!

Valentines Day


When I was kid in grade school (Walt Disney Elementary in Anaheim CA) I just loved Valentines Day. I remember going to the drug store with my Mom and picking out just the right box of Valentines Day Cards. Mom would always insist on buying candy for me to give to all of the kids in my class. I remember, the week before Valentines Day in school we would make our desk envelopes to drop the Valentines in. The envelopes were to be decorated with everything hearts. I loved walking around all of the desks and finding the correct name on my cards and dropping them into their nicely decorated envelopes. I was always so excited to look into my envelope and seeing just how how many cards were in my envelope and which cards had candy in them. I loved taking them home and looking again and again at who gave me a Valentine. When I got one from a boy I liked it was twice as special. Well, those are me childhood memories of Valentines Days past.

Wondering

Ok, I am wondering what I can possibly say on my blog that would make friends and family come back to it. I am not much of a writer. I do like to write poetry so I will post some of my writings in the future. Some of my poetry may sound a little doom and gloom but, I write my poetry when I am mad or upset so, if it offends anyone, I am so sorry. My writings are of what I am feeling in the moment and not meant to be relative to anything that is happening "today". So, read it at your own risk and please do not take it personally. Although, I have written about some family members, remember that they were written a few years ago or maybe even longer.
As most of you know, I have had quite a bit happen in my 40+ years and I find it theraputic to write what I am feeling. Well, that's it for now. Look for future postings soon.
