The focus is on today
Not tomorrow
Or yesterday
But this very day.
No sway
Or deviating
To another day
No, just this day.
See it as the best this day
Remember
Focus on this day
Okay?

As We Search And Find Our Destiny
July 12, 2012
More comes to life
Seen with eyes
Not filled with misery.
Joy and happiness prevail
We know we cannot fail
Searching for a life indeed
A life I need
Travelling with a presence
That has utter bliss.
Searching we will find
Our destiny here on earth
And it will be
Yours and mine.

This Is Where We Are
July 11, 2012This is where we are.
Look around and see the beauty
The strength.
See what you need to grow and be the person you alone can be.
Don’t fear.
You are worth it dear.

Dreams Are Forgotten
July 10, 2012
Dreams are forgotten
Never to be told
Dreams
Never to unfold.
Dreams of splendour
Happiness and fame
All to be seen
Going down the drain.
Sadness, despair
Anguish and heartache
Tear at the soul
Shattered
Fall to the floor
Never, no more.
Up from the tatters
Mended but bruised
Focused on laughter
Making that dream
Come true.
Watch as dreams
Of splendour and happiness
Unfold to be true
This too can be you.

Let Us Be
July 9, 2012
Let us be
The people and friends
We should be.
Forget the theatrics
forget the greed
Just be
And I’ll be me.

Once Upon A Time
July 5, 2012Once
Once upon a time
I dreamed
Dreamed you were mine.
This was a time
When all was perfect
And sublime.
Yes, you were mine
When I dreamed of a
Oh so perfect time.
No bittersweet goodbyes
Only loving, happy times
When you were mine
In a perfect time.
It was a time
The sun shone down on us
Filling all with a radiant glow
Of tender love
Sweet tender love.
I dreamed a dream
Once upon a time
When you
You were mine.

Rules Are Broken
July 4, 2012
Rules are broken
Maybe they are meant to be
Don’t hold tight
Release to let them free.
Then we’ll see
What will come about
For you and for me.

The World Is Round
July 3, 2012The world is round
And goodness does abound
Stop and listen
Listen to the sound
Of heaven and earth
Here near the depths of existence
I have found.
Don’t be deterred
Be stirred to live
A life of goodness
Here on earth
Where we all find joy
And happiness surrounds us
In a way that is profound.
Listen, listen to the sound
Of happiness as it
clamours to be found.
