Human is what we are.
Kind is what we strive to be.
Thus, making us for all eternity
Humankind.

Human Is What We Are

Smokin’ Joe Frazier
November 8, 2011Smokin’ Joe Frazier
Died in the night
A mighty man
In a mighty time.
Never knew or met the man
But the man I’ve heard of
And people spoke of
Was a mighty, mighty good man.

Storybook Telling Storybook Ending
November 7, 2011Storybook telling, storybook ending
Endeavor to know the lines so well
The costs are dear
The consequences many
Join the ranks
Of the countless enemy
Foe to foe bring it on
Marry the rule
Continue on
Yours to tell
Mine to listen
Storybook telling
Endless ending song.
Why should we know?
Why should we be
Here, in the land
Of no beginning?
Sally forth
Muddle through
Storybook telling
In the midst
Of a storybook ending
Song.
You are right
I was wrong
Not so much starting
But feeling the throng
Of that very sad ending
That untold ending
In a storybook telling
Of so long ago
Endless, ending song.

November 5, 2011Please be here with me dear Creator. Journey with me thru the dark passages, emerging into the light of redemption. Secure, knowing I have had you with me to guide and show me my path.

Ride The Mighty Steed
November 4, 2011Ride the mighty steed
In a race of grand giants.
Win the gold in a story
Only you can unfold.
Conquer fears
With the might
You’ve already won.
Claim your right
And the mighty steed
Will carry you far
Into this starry night
Outcome .

We Have Friends
November 3, 2011
We have friends we don’t know.
They are by our side even when we don’t see or feel their presence.
Accept that when you need, they are there.

Let It Begin With Me
November 2, 2011Let it begin with me. Me, to see what must be done and to start the process. This is my responsibility, my mission, my duty, my joy and life.

Sprinkle Down The Precipitous
November 1, 2011
Sprinkle down the precipitous
Falling down the cliff
Catch a hold of the abyss
See what falling stories hold.
Mighty energetic
Free fall form to keep
Grasp a hold of solid ground
See what does unfold
Here in the deep.

Today I Listened
October 30, 2011Today I listened
To the sound
Of Heaven and Earth
Trying to expound
All the things I left behind
In the middle, centre mind.
Not so nice
Not so dear
But surely held in the fear
Someone else find me out
Or those of us
Would hear about.
Yes, I know I shouldn’t call
Then today I heard the sound
Of Heaven and Earth
trying to expound
Hell on Earth
And bring it down.
