Meddle
In someone’s thoughts
Stick
Your fingers in someone’s dreams
Sadden
By the way they don’t listen away
Maybe
It’s time to keep your mouth shut
Your opinion
To your own self, it may work for you
But
Only you and you alone.

Nothing hurts nor contains
I will sing a sweet, melodious refrain.

Suddenly my heart
Goes out coming in
To home and love.
Suddenly my mind
Understands life
Suddenly, suddenly.

Sometimes a memory
Sadden, falls down my face
Coming straight from heaven
It holds a special time and place
In my heart forever
Starting there, glistening
Upon my face.

House of cards
Comes crashing down
Never built on solid ground
No ace, jack nor king
Only a queen in mourning.

You decide
whether the storm is cold
Or summery hot
You decide.
The future your’s to take
The path to the left
Or go to the right
You decide.
See blissful rain
Or shattering shame
Your decision
You decide.
Your heart won’t know
Til your ears do cry
And your eyes see what
You decide.

Hunger so
Need the help
Not sure why.
Please Lord
Let me not die
Holding on to something
That won’t even cry.
Hunger so sad
Cause
Not sure why.

Remember
Much has happened
Not all for the best.
Much is done
Now we must let it rest.
Much can be
Accomplished
Thou not right now.
Much of your journey
Is part
Of your heart.
Much to remember
Now
Is when to start.

The end of winter,
Please be near.
No more blizzards
No more watching ‘up to their bellies’ deer.
Just the soft trickle of springtime rain
As it washes away winter rubbish once again.
The chirp of robins hunting worms
Green, green grass alongside blooming herbs.
Yes, that’s what I am looking for,
That’s what I need.
So the end of winter, please, please,
PLEASE!
