Totally don’t know
What to say
Maybe later, later in the day
All will be clear
All
Understood
And
I’ll know, know what I should say
I surely should.

Don’t Know
May 3, 2023
Happen, Happened
April 19, 2023
You cannot see
I cannot say
What
Will happen, happened
Yesterday.
The time is unknown
Can only wonder
About tomorrow
And
What took place
Yesterday.

Stand Tall
April 18, 2023
Stand tall
Answering the questions
Roaming
Through your mind.
Don’t let them grow
Becoming nothing
But
All you see.
Don’t let them be the essence
Of what makes up
The you
Or
The sweet, gentle
Me.

Do You Know Me
April 12, 2023
Do I know you?
Do you know me?
Do you wake in the night
Wondering how I could be?
Is your first thought in the morning about me?
Your last question as your eyes fall asleep
Is it, is it all about me?
I didn’t think so
I knew it wouldn’t be
Cause I never think of you
And
You don’t know me.

The Sadness In Your Life
April 10, 2023
When I see
The sadness in your life
The unkindness
The things that shouldn’t be
My heart goes out
Wants to hold you
Oh, so closely.
I hope in tomorrow’s
Morning light
You’ll be in a better place
Far away from any strife
But near enough
So
We can embrace.

When I Hear Your Call
March 22, 2023
When I hear your call
My heart skips a beat
My mind thinks of all the things
I love about you
Oh, so sweet.
When you had to go away
My days were grim
My heart was sad
How
My eyes did cry.
Now again
I can hear your voice
Taste your lips and behold you
With my eyes.
My world is right
I’m loved
I’ll go thru the day
Without a sad or lonely cry.

Hearing Words
March 17, 2023
Hearing words in my head
They tell of times past
Then
Sometimes things ahead
‘Listen
Listen well’
Is what they said
‘For in telling, we give you
A chance to know
Know how to deal with
What has happened
And what is still ahead’.

Honours
March 13, 2023
Honours come
Then they go
Fleeting at the best
Don’t make them
All you know
They are in your mind
They don’t exist
As
I hope you know
In the air you breathe
Growing grass
Or
Rivers that flow
No, they don’t know.

I Heard Your Heart Beat
March 3, 2023
I heard your heart beat
I saw your breath breathe
My fingers touched your lips
My hands caressed your feet.
As my soul touched yours
I knew, knew there was
No where else in this world
I need be or rather go.

Birds Fly In
February 6, 2023
Birds fly in, then fly out
Seeds are there, then gone
They’re out.
I’m sitting here
Watching, watching
All the goings-on
Go about.
They don’t know
I’m here
They don’t care
About my life, my goings-on.
Cause they have
Their own life to live
Like sing, find seeds
Fly about.
