A sombre day
in
a troubling
time
Make sure
not
forgotten
Not lost
in
time.

A Sombre Day
September 11, 2025
You Feel Me
September 10, 2025
You feel me
close
you feel my heart
I know you do
No words are spoken
no kisses
felt
yet in the future
I hope
I’m all
you think about.

Watch Them Grow
September 9, 2025
Watch them
live
watch them grow
Nothing
you can purchase
nor
bestow
Watch
seasons past
and
you’ll see
Changes
The new growing
from
the old
Yes
it’s beautiful
to
watch them grow.

I Don’t Care
September 5, 2025
I don’t care
if you’re white or black
whether you’ve seen the sacred cow
or
any of that
that
makes us different
in
thoughts and acts
we are still human beings
we are family
joined
it seems
to live life as best we can
making
full of love for all
all
of us
humans
and
other beings.

Play The Game
September 4, 2025
Change the game
change
the way we look
the way
we play the game
Makes no difference
who sees
we hold
all
the cards
We know
the stakes
we’re going to play
to
win
We’ll change the outcome
we’ll play
the game.

Closing Out
September 3, 2025
Closing out
closing
down
Everything
is
at
peace
As
we watch
the sun
go
down.

You
September 2, 2025
You have me
you
hold and care for me
I live to be
close
near to you
You are my everything
you
make me whole
you make me come
alive
I can’t see a world
a time
without you
by
my side.

Heaven Helps
August 29, 2025
Heaven helps
heaven waits to save
comfort when you fall
when your heart sinks
and no one comes
even if you ask, you cry
you call.
Heaven stands strong
stands tall
reaching down, lifting up
saving you, giving
asking nothing back
nothing at all.

Let Me Feel
August 28, 2025
Let me feel
the sadness go
like
raindrops melting
into snow
Let me feel my heart
beat
not too fast
not
too slow
Let me know
in this world
that
brings me
sadness, heartache
caresses me
also
with gentle kindness
and
enduring love.

Regrets In My Life
August 26, 2025
There have been
regrets
in
my life
things
I’d rather
not
dwell on
Live twice
To find
joy
in those times
is
hard to accept
hard
to find
This is why
I acknowledge
they
happened
maybe cry
then
let them go
But did they
help me change
help me
grow?
You know
I just don’t
know.
