Let me see
all the beauty
in
your excellence
Let me know
your kindness, your grace
And
Let me be forever
in your presence
for no more than an eternity
feeling
your everlasting embrace.

Let Me

Stories Told
November 1, 2024
Stories told
Are the stories
I tell.
Are they true
Or did I just say words
That make the story
Told well?
Secrets revealed
Bad parts left out
Who knows
How can you tell?
Embellished or truthful
Telling a tale
To remember.
Not because
It’s told correctly
But told well.

Courteous Be
October 31, 2024
Courteous be
let no one
antagonize thee
Forward go, looking back
only
to stow memories
there
To
remember
in
the morning light
Or
when alone
in
the darkest night
Plod ahead
stay
your way
Always courteous
if you can
if
you may.

Live
October 30, 2024
My heart
soars
my life does live
I’ll be here
till
the long, dark night
bids
Come live
in
a wondrous dream
Where you’ll forever
live
forever more.

Heaven Knows But Doesn’t Tell
October 29, 2024
Heaven knows
but
doesn’t tell
secrets
from the universe
nor
the past
as well.
Maybe it’s for the best
maybe then
we’ll forge ahead
bask
in the brightness
of those things
that
she does speak of
those things she tells
so well.

Never Said
October 28, 2024
Never said
I would be
all
I could
exceptionally.
No, I didn’t believe
that
you’d take my word
for what
was to happen
what
was to be.
Never said
either
that all life
would be
easy.

You Have The Answer
October 25, 2024
You have the answer
You have the way
To bring joy and happiness
Into this world
Making a better place
Now and everyday.
No words of commitment
No promises uttered
In any way
Just moving forward
Taking each and every step
Accomplishing a better day.

Can I
October 24, 2024
Can I
feel, see
the end coming
or
what was
my beginning?
Can I
live in reality
being happy
or just
whining, complaining
full of misery?
No answers come
Cause
I’ve already made
the decision
to live my life
as
best I can
can be.

Gone Are The Times
October 23, 2024
Gone are the times
I used to know
fell
like leaves
in the fall.
Memories only
nothing
at all
of this time I’m living
living right now.

Holy Be Excited
October 22, 2024
Holy be excited
I see the world
Turn
Giving answers
To
Questions
That were
To me
Such a concern.
