Feelings are hard to decipher
anger, hurt, happiness or joy
what are they trying to say?
Maybe tomorrow
I’ll know
I’ll have answers
not known, understood
today.

Feelings Are Hard To Decipher

The Sun Shines Thru
May 12, 2021
The sun shines thru
it’s beams radiating
goodness, love
all things beautiful.
Warming the earth
filling the sky
with creatures lovely
able to fly.
The soil is warmed
growing things
feeding all
feeding everything.
We are lucky beings
we’ve been given
life
from the sun’s radiating streams.

A Big Milestone
May 11, 2021
A big milestone
looms in my way
not one to saunter to
not one to bypass or ignore
not today.
Strength and courage
are mustered to surpass
the obstacles seen today
to that tremendous milestone
on my path, on my way.

Run And Jump
May 10, 2021
Run and jump
leave the pain of not knowing
where you’ve been
and
where you came from.
The answers will be questions
for the ones
coming
after you, after me.
Settle in to knowing
you’ve been, you exist
and
you will in the future be
a cherished memory.

Writing comes easy
It’s the meaning that is hard.

Quietly
May 6, 2021
Quietly I lay
waiting for the sky
to take away
all the hurt, pain
I experienced
yesterday
Quietly, quietly I lay.

You Know
May 5, 2021
You know
Some days
I know
and
some days you do.
No one
is intrigued
with not knowing
what to do.
You do your best
you do
you do
what else is there?
I know
and
so
do you too.

Worry, Wonder
May 4, 2021
Worry, wonder consuming me
will it be okay or will I be
surrounded by misery?
Bite my lip
still my wicked thoughts
fill the future with all that happiness
has brought.

We Keep Secrets
April 30, 2021
We keep secrets
We hold them tight
Never exposed
To see the morning light.
We keep secrets
Silent, secretive
They speak not a word
Sometimes to the grave
They’re carried, never heard.
We keep secrets
Untold secrets
We grasp them tight
Feeling the burden
The weight not light.
