You call me, you call me loud
I hear it echoing
echoing thru the clouds.
What is it you want?
What has made you call?
I’ll answer in a minute
I’ll answer all.
But now I’m busy
Busy
Making
My own call.

Change The World
December 13, 2023
Nobody does
Nobody will
Change the world
Alone.
Still
That’s how
It starts
That’s what will.
Change the world
A change
Nobody can
But
Everybody
Will.

Mustn’t Be
December 12, 2023
Mustn’t be , couldn’t be
Not
What I want
Want for me.
How can I change it
Where can I go
To make my life easy
Pleasant
Go with the flow?

Thinking
December 11, 2023
I’m thinking, thinking
Things to do
Things I’ve done
And
Those accomplished
By me
For
You.
Some weren’t very big
Had no idea was to do
Then
There were others
Huge
On the scale of all things
Remembered
Lasting into the next millennia
Next spring.
I’m thinking, thinking
I really don’t have to do
Anything
Cause things happen
I’m thinking
Things happen
No matter
What I think I should do.

Not This Morning

Not this morning
not today
will I be a victim
of
Yesterday

Heaven Help Me
December 6, 2023
Heaven help me
Be a kind, gentle human being
Let no one come to be
My arch rival, my enemy.
Let me see kindness
Majesty
In every creature
Every human being.
Let no one be sacrificed
Just because
They haven’t seen
The light.
Let us all be one
Together
Loving, holding each other
Very tight.
So that we sleep peaceful
Throughout
The quiet, troubled
Night.

Don’t Let Me Say
December 5, 2023
Don’t let me say
The words I don’t want to hear
Please let me speak the words
That’ll guide me away
Far away from here.
Let me do
What needs to be done
Let it be something beautiful
And nothing
I would want undone.
That is all I ask
That is all I can do
Let me be happy
With these words, these things
I will, I can do.

Kaboom, Kaboom
December 1, 2023
Quietly, softly the breath intakes
listening
to the heart
explodiate
Kaboom, Kaboom
The legs take their feet for a walk
while
the arms hold close the hands
caressing the softness
of love
seen by the eyes
as
the ears listen
to
the quiet heart
go
Kaboom, Kaboom.

No More To See
November 30, 2023
No more to see
To feel
My heart is full
Loaded with sweet, kind
Tender thoughts
That’ll carry me through
Whatever happens
Whatever
My arms embrace
My mind has captured, caught.

Long, Cold Lonely Night
November 29, 2023
No one holds me close
No one
Holds me tight.
Instead I lay
Alone
Throughout
The long, cold lonely night.
Will there be someone?
Will they love me tender
Hold me close
Hold
Me tight?
I can dream
But
Will it ever be
On
This long, cold lonely night?
