No one can, can be
no one can see
things the same
same
as you or me.
Travel through life
live as well as you can
smile
be the best possible
as only you
you can.

Seek To Find

Seek to find
The answer
Pleased
To know today
I have
The directions
To navigate all obstacles
To journey
Find my way.

No One Believes
July 17, 2026
No one believes
And
I can’t see
The solution, the remedy
To
What ails the world
And
Unfortunately me.

This Morning
July 10, 2026
This morning comes alive
Breathing new life
In the day
The moment
Throughout all waking hours
To
Evening night.
Never speaking
Of
What must be done
What should be
Left behind.
Only moving through
The day
Bringing everything
To evening
Where to rest, sleep
In the quiet
Peaceful night.

No More Today
July 3, 2026
No more
Today.
Tomorrow
Will be
What it turns out
To be.
But
Today, only today
I’ll let it be.
I’ll sit back
And
Enjoy my solitude
My serenity.

Quietly, Silently
June 26, 2026
Quietly, silently
I move through thee, the mountains, the meadows
So full of such beauty, majesty.
Tomorrow I’ll be in the midst of a stream
Flowing rapidly
Swimming with creatures silently, quietly.
I will fly in the sky
Where birds live, laugh and die
I will be for a while, one of them.
No one will know
No one will be happier, happier than me
Moving quietly, silently.

Before You Went Away
June 19, 2026
You didn’t tell me
You didn’t say
Those words I needed to hear
Before
Before you went away.
Silence is all I hear
Silence
Fills the hour, the day.
I’d hoped
To hear you speak
I’d hoped
You’d say
Soft, loving words to me
Before you left
Before you went away

Heaven Sees, Heaven Knows
June 12, 2026
Heaven sees, heaven knows
All the happenings
We need not
Disclose
Our trials, our tribulations
All our triumphs
For
She knows.
Tomorrow
Heaven will know, will see
Cause
She lives
Lives within us all
Inside of you, inside of me.

The Knowledge To Succeed
May 29, 2026
You have the expertise
The knowledge to succeed
Just follow your heart
The small voice
Speaking.
She will tell you the way to go
The right, the wrong
All things
You think
You don’t know.
She’s called
An angel
A guardian angel
Living, breathing
Just
To help you.
Listen
And
You’ll hear
All you need
Need to know.

I Have Heard
May 22, 2026
I have heard
and
know
I have to be
the sweetest person
I ever can be.
Why?
you ask
Why
this has to be?
Cause the Creator
says
this is best for the world
and
of course
little
old me.
