Coldness infiltrates every crevice, cranny
Make no mistake death could come
If you don’t take precautions
To keep warm and make
Your world a warm, cosy loving place.

Coldness Infiltrates
December 16, 2013
We Sat Silently Together
December 13, 2013
We sat silently together
No one saying anything
Silently wishing
We could bridge the chasm
That that silence brings.

As You Can See
December 12, 2013As you can see
There is a lot to fill our destines
Flowing thru the world
In and out of harm
Maneuvering by the obstacles
That have a tendency
To make us cry or even die.
No there isn’t a plan
As grand as this one
We hold here within our hands
The magnificent one
Our destiny demands.

When The Day Has Ended
December 11, 2013When the day has ended
And I go to sleep
Please let me dream
Dreams so sweet.
No controversial or angry things
Only pleasant happenings
And loving themes.
My day has ended
And I hope in dreams
Sleep will bring
A happy finish to everything.

May The Heart
December 10, 2013
May the heart
Not be cold
But filled with wonders
Love untold.
May this be all
I do, see, behold
With a heart filled
Of love untold.

I Listened To You Speak
December 9, 2013
I listened to you speak
Saw what you want
And seek.
A sadness overwhelmed
The likes of me
Realizing neither I
Or anyone on earth
Could satisfy such a hunger
Such a thirst.
I came away feeling
Worthless in this sadness
that makes me cry
For nothing, nothing
I could say or speak
Would give you
What you want and seek.

Nelson Is Dead
December 6, 2013
NELSON MANDELA
July 18, 1918 – December 5, 2013
Nelson is dead
Can’t believe these words
I just have said.
A brave, courageous man
Lived a life to make it better
For all men.
I bow my head in reverence
Say a pray
For those left behind.
For you see there will never be
Another such great
And wondrous, loving man.
Rest in peace Nelson Mandela
You brave, courageous loving man.

Wonder What Did Happen
December 5, 2013Wonder what did happen
Wonder how it got to this
You can ponder many things
But the answers may not answer
Or necessarily exist.

We Are Joyous
December 4, 2013
We are joyous
Moving along, forward
Into a distant future.
Hesitate, reach down
Look around, see
All the wonders
Growing
Living by your side.
Know
You’re not alone
Nor ever going to be.
For intertwined
In your soul, mine
And all that
Has ever been.

Never Understood
December 3, 2013
Never understood
How you could walk away
Never turning round
To even say
A kind goodbye
Never understood.
Can’t figure out why
Why it made me cry
Wish with all my heart
I too
Could leave and maybe die
Never understood.
Not now in that awful moment
Moved on and found
The world a lovely place
Full of treasures, beauty, grace
Making all that heartache
Pass away
That, I understand.
But in brief moments
Of some days
I think of you
And still
Can never really understand.
