Art is a thing of
Beauty
Sweetness
Strength
Anger
Kindness
Remorse
Compassion
Honesty
and
Bliss.
Not just a Man’s name.

Will I Show You Who I Am
February 12, 2021
Will I show you who I am
Will I reveal the face
I know I’ve been?
Will the lines of tomorrow
Be etched
Across my taunt skin?
Will the ones
That happened yesterday
Be still there
In a full or forced grin?
I don’t know the answer
Cause you see
I don’t know who I’ve been.

The Truth
February 11, 2021
Is the end the answer
Will the truth be told?
No more to wonder
No need to scold
For the truth is the answer
The truth is what’s told.

Hold still, hold quiet
Let the night bring peace and joy
Forever and a eternity.

Home Again
February 9, 2021
Home again
Home to stay
Wait til happiness wains
Then I’ll go away
To a life of my choosing
Where I’ll make it
Home
And then once more
I’ll be home again
Home to stay.

I Watch You Be
February 8, 2021
I watch you be
The very best
You can possibly be.
No ifs ands or buts
All straight forward
All the very best
That heaven gave
You to be.

It’s Time The Master Said
February 5, 2021
It’s time the master said
To live without fear
Without dread
Back to the heart
That rises fine and true
Keeps the soul warm
Surrounding you.
It’s time the master said
Hold your head high
Reach to the sky
Make no one sad
Nor deny
The feelings you feel.
It’s time
It’s time the master said.

Cold Drips
February 4, 2021
Cold drips
It wains
Sun warms
Spring
Summer are on the horizon
If you stand on a tall hill
You can see them
Plain.

Hold Me Close
February 2, 2021
Hold me close, hold me tight
Let me sleep in peace
Throughout the darkest night
Let no one keep gentle thoughts
From surrounding me.
For tomorrow will be
Another day
The sun will rise and shine
Holding night at bay.
Til she too succumbs
To quiet rest
In the arms of one
Who loves her dearly
Loves her best.

Feel The Snow Fly
February 1, 2021
Feel the snow fly
The blizzard roar
And the sky cry.
A storm
Blows across
A cold, barren land.
No soul ventures out
No one wants to know
How cold winter is.
Blowing
Covering all
The freezing land.
