No one can, can be
no one can see
things the same
same
as you or me.
Travel through life
live as well as you can
smile
be the best possible
as only you
you can.

No One Can

You Haven’t Been
July 26, 2023
You haven’t been
The best person I’ve ever seen
But
Have become
The best person that you need to be.
Kind, generous and sympathetic
You are
You be.
No one else is the same as you
You are the best
The best
You can and need to be.

No One Believes
July 25, 2023
No one believes
And
I can’t see
The solution, the remedy
To
What ails the world
And
Unfortunately me.

Seek To Find
July 24, 2023
Seek to find
The answer
Pleased
To know today
I have
The directions
To navigate all obstacles
To journey
Find my way.

This Morning
July 13, 2023
This morning comes alive
Breathing new life
In the day
The moment
Throughout all waking hours
To
Evening night.
Never speaking
Of
What must be done
What should be
Left behind.
Only moving through
The day
Bringing everything
To evening
Where to rest, sleep
In the quiet
Peaceful night.

Hold Me Close
July 12, 2023
Hold me close
Don’t let me be
Sacrificed
To the dragons of eternity.
Let me see
Beauty, harmony
In the world all around
Surrounding me.
Cherish, nurture those that grow
In the shadow of greatness
Growing as they must
All alone.
But
Lovingly supported
By me, by us that hold them
Forever close.

Very, Very Still
July 11, 2023
Cannot see
Nor
Can I feel
The essence of the world
All seems so
Very, very still.
I wonder why
I ask the question
To the quiet presence
But
Still, still.
Nothing says
The why
Nor can I feel
All is
Very, very still.

No More Today
July 10, 2023
No more
Today.
Tomorrow
Will be
What it turns out
To be.
But
Today, only today
I’ll let it be.
I’ll sit back
And
Enjoy my solitude
My serenity.

No One Will Be
July 6, 2023
No one will be
No one can be
In the same time, place
Ever
Ever as me.
It may be tomorrow
Or
The day after that
I’ll be in heaven
Smiling down
On all this, all that.
Where I’ll be wondering
Why I cared
If no one
was in the same time, place
As me.
Like today
I’ll be wondering
Just wondering all this
And
Of course, all that.

What’s Right
July 5, 2023
Working on what’s right
On
What to say
When everything comes to light
When all see
What completes the day.
Then
I’ll have the words
That’s when I’ll know
What to say.
This is what I tell myself
Worried, I’m lying
Worried
I don’t really know
What’s right
Or
What I need to say.
