Telling when
telling what and who
I need to love, cherish
to
make it thru.
That’s what
the universe gives
has given me
to do.

Telling When

My Best
April 12, 2022
Working forward
Working is a process
To pass thru life
Feeling accomplished
Feeling
I’m doing my best
Will there be rewards?
Will there be stress?
I’m sure lots of both
Lots to look back on
Knowing I did all I could
Knowing
I did my best.

You
April 11, 2022Hold to the land
that lets you be the person
you want to become.
Allows you
never questioning, nor doubting
just being, becoming the best you.
That’s all the land asks
I’m telling you.

Spring
April 7, 2022
I feel
The flesh of my skin
Warming
To the now coming
Spring
I see
My legs run
Across a path
Laden with flowers
Beauties of
Spring
I hear
A call echoing thru
my chest
Of geese making their flight
To reaches north
In the now here
Spring
No more
To wonder
No more to wish
My body knows winter is lost
Chased away
By beautiful, glorious
Spring.

Stolen From My Mind
April 6, 2022
Stolen
from my mind.
Lost
in the wilderness
of
confusion, despair.
Solely injured
from
brutal stabs
of
casual indifference.

I Know I’ve Been Lost
April 5, 2022
I know
I’ve been lost
in the wilderness
of
low self esteem
Climbing out
has been hard
rocks, crevasses
unholy shards
pierce my skin, my life
my thoughts
Still I climb
I push, pull and shove
to
a glorious world
full of
grace, courage
and
self-love.

The Truth
April 4, 2022
Sometimes the truth
hurts
and
not the best thing
to hear.
Sometimes its good
to accept the truth
as it is
as it seems.
Sometimes you can
make the truth
the truth you need
to embrace
and
to believe.

Trying To Make
April 1, 2022Aww yes, still true today
Trying to make
All my work complete
Make things tidy
Tidy and neat
Exhaustive work
Mental trying times
When and where
Did I get so much
So much to do
In so little time?

My Heart Aches
March 31, 2022
My heart aches
my soul cries
for a time
of clear innocence
a time that time
has taken
to the past
No more to feel
to bask
in rays of light
hearted laughs
Sadness overwhelms
hurt
seems to last
til no more tears left
to sob
crying for the now
distance past.

Figure It Out
March 30, 2022
Figuring
trying to figure it out
can’t understand
the way, the procedure
to get it done
figured out.
Will work on it
I’ll think about
what may be the way
to do this, get it done
to
figure it out.
