Ever wonder why?
Ever think things happen
On a line
You can’t deny?
Ever wonder why
Answers come
But don’t seem to be
The ones asked
Or seen technically?
Ever wonder, wonder why?

Ever Wonder Why?

The World Spins
February 17, 2022
The world spins
it turns round
Bringing beauty
to those that
surround
Their hearts with kindness
all things
that in this world
do abound.

My Journey Is Special
December 17, 2021
My journey is special
I am elite
No one else walks, talks
Or looks like me.
My heart skips a beat
When I look in the mirror
For there someone exceptional
Is looking at me.
No one in this world
This story or be
The exact same example
The same human being.
I am special
I am me.

Death Is Overpowering Me
December 10, 2021
Death is overpowering me
Coming, telling me
What to do, where to go
Where to be.
Death is walking beside me
Holding gently, telling me
Souls who go don’t leave
They too, are alongside me.
Death is breathing life inside me
My time will come but not now
Go live a life full of love
Fun and beauty.
This death tells me.

I Should Not Believe
December 8, 2021
I know
I should not believe
That all is well
That’s just make believe
Time has come
To stand still
Feel the earth move
See reality
Ugly, beauty
All of it understood
Accepting, unconditionally
Still believing
In the grace of God
Forever
I will believe.

No
November 25, 2021
No words to say
None to convey love and understanding
No, nothing comes to mind
To articulate or define
No, nothing
Nothing comes to mind.

Close By And Near To Me
October 21, 2021
Close by and near to me
The warmth of your body
Comforts, protects me
Gives me time
To see
The answer to all the questions
Filling me.
Then my world
Too
Will be filled with love
Unconditionally.

Fruits Of My Labour
October 20, 2021
Fruits of my labour
Seem to be
Consequences
I didn’t
Foresee
Maybe tomorrow
I’ll be
In the midst
Of another day
Straight from
History.

When I Look Out And See
October 1, 2021
When I look out and see magnificence and beauty
I wonder
Why heartbreak has to be.

Fingers Trudge
September 29, 2021
Fingers trudge
across the page
feeling
the paper’s texture
smooth
hardly any grain.
Will the pen
fill the lines
printed
on this page
or
will it be vacant
unused
crumpled
thrown away?
Fingers hesitate
and then
pick up trusty pen
and say
words that fill this page
with all they want
need
to say.
