Nothing seems to come out right
Even though I work, think all night
Nothings right
Nothings right.

Nothing Seems
September 19, 2013
Watch The Sun Filter Thru
September 18, 2013Watch the sun filter thru
Watch your dreams come true
The world is yours to love
Yours to live
All is well as the sun comes
Brightly filtering thru.

Figure It Out
September 17, 2013
Figure it out one step at a time
Walk with pride
Sidestep
Even if you have to duck and hide
No matter the reason the answer is there
Its up to you to find out where.

Not Feeling Well Today

Not feeling well today
Hoping
Hoping maybe
It’ll go away.

Friday The 13th In Port Dover
September 13, 2013
Friday the 13th
Is fun, nothing bad
Just a happening in Dover
Where thousands meet
To stare at Harleys
In the street.
No one notices palm trees
Embedded in the sand
Only the massive rumble roar
As another bike rides in.

Let Me See The Difference
September 12, 2013
Let me see the difference
In the majesty enveloping me
Let me be the whole
I want to be
A profound difference
That’s what I want to be.

I Forgot
September 11, 2013
I forgot
What day this was
I forget if a saddened sun shone
I forget what I had for lunch.
But
I didn’t forget the thousands that did die
I didn’t forget those that did get out alive
I haven’t forgot you helped those survive.
I can not forget the clouds of smoke
Rising ash, people stunned, sirens wailing
Unholy hell reigning
It seemed to last I have not forgot.
I can not forget
A silence as planes flew into concrete
Smashing trust, crushing hopes
This I won’t and have not forgot.

Crisis Crunch
September 10, 2013Crisis crunch
Not a blessed thing I can do
Master anger here in charge
Not letting anyone disregard
All this mess spread about.
Anger, frustration
Does abound
Method used is not the one
Must change my options
Find someone who knows
Quiet, elegant all
Those wonder times.
Spend it there
Make it like a nursery rhyme
Full of happiness all the time
All the time
Make it a blessed nursery rhyme.

Stomach Churning
September 9, 2013
Stomach churning
Thoughts swirling
Around.
Don’t know
What’s right
Or wrong.
Strong feelings
Moving me
Moving me along.
Get a hold
Get a grip
Focus and stay
A bit.
See right
From wrong
Know which path
To travel along.

A Home Is A Home
September 6, 2013
A home is a home
No matter where you reside
A home is a home
No matter the size.
A home is where we go
And we share
All that’s important
And shows we do care.
A home is a home
And where we come
To be secure surrounded
With all we love.
Be it with our child
Our brothers, our sisters
Our father, our spouse
Or mother
A home is a home.
No matter where
We roam or stay
A home is still home
When we nestle in
And love one another.
