I don’t have
all the answers
but
I am grateful
I do
have some.

Thinking Of Things
March 21, 2025
Thinking of things
I need
and
want to do
Places
to go
Jobs
to do
Make
videos
Cleaning
too
Thinking
Thinking of things
to do.

You Can Hear Me Calling
March 20, 2025
You can hear me
calling
you can see my face
you know
my tears are falling
yet
you give me
no
choice
My life is shattered
my heart
broken in two
my lips move in motion
still saying
I love you.

Let Me
March 19, 2025
Let me
go
Let me be
in
the midst of everything
made of beauty.
Let me not
see
anguish nor tragedy.
Let me not hear
the thunder of war
all that agony.
Let me
Let me please
be
happy.

The Gentle Soul
March 18, 2025
The gentle soul
who resides inside of me
takes care
to be
kind, pleasing to all
that
she perceives
to
need her care, her comfort
all the things
that
help someone thrive
and
be
the best they can
That’s what
the gentle soul
inside
of me
she strives
to be.

Heard A Robin
March 17, 2025
Heard a robin
today
It’s song played
happily
in
my head
For now
I know
what lies ahead
Spring, summer
then
late fall
All in order
That’s
what I hear
when
the robin calls.

My Heart Aches
March 14, 2025
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.

We Were Happy
March 13, 2025
Remember when?
We were happy
The world turned
the sun shone
We were happy
No matter what
was said
in jest or a little angry
things could be worked out
We were happy
Now it seems
the world stands still
in
disbelief
The sun shines elsewhere
hiding
And
us?
We’re not happy.

I Hear Your Call
March 12, 2025
I hear your call
I see you coming near
I know that
I need you
more than ever
forever
my dear.
Take me in your arms
hold me so sweet
then
begin to tell me
all the things
you love of me.
Please
please, do not be discreet.

You
March 11, 2025
You won’t hold me tight
you’ll leave me
in the middle
of
the night
your heart is cold
your eyes filled
with anger
I’ll see you leave
I’ll see you go
I won’t cry or say a word
our love is over
we’ll move on, retrieve our lives
our emotions too
no more hurt
from
the likes of you.
