No more
To be sad or happy
No more to say
Those words
I didn’t want to say.
All is finished
Completed in every way
Now is the time
To be just me
Just me all day.

No More To Be Sad Or Happy
March 7, 2024
No More
March 4, 2024
No more
To say
No more
To do.
Just sitting
Here
In the midst of beauty
And
Contentment
Too.

Secrets
February 28, 2024
Nobody else can ever know
All the secrets
Life bestows.
But when we’re gone
No longer here
Those secrets have a life
They ever flow.

The Caged Bird
February 2, 2024
The caged bird flies
Deep into brilliant
Blue, blue skies.
The caged bird cries
Songs of lilting love
Her sweet voice sings
Of beauty, freedom
All things.
The caged bird dies
In the midst of bars holding
Holding her in.
No soaring in blue skies
Nor lilting love songs sung
For this was only a dream
Dreamt in
A dark night long.

Hearing The Words Spoken
January 26, 2024
Hearing the words spoken
In love and respect
Makes my heart leap and regret
All the things that I’ve said.
Not believing the actions
The smiles
The love I did get.
Now
I know there was nothing pretend
All was truthful, out in the open
Love with no end.
I will embrace all that I have
Give back, be happy
Never again be sad.
For this that you’ve given me
I will embrace, love you forever
Knowing
It’s our chosen place.

A Token Of My Gratitude
January 25, 2024
A token of my gratitude
Shapes the way
I meet the day
Up to me
To see lovely beauty
In every thing, every way
There is badness
In the air
But no need to bring it in.
Let it go
Let it go away
You can deal with it
Another time, another day.

No Way To Go
January 24, 2024
No way to go
No way to know
The path that’s right
One that doesn’t veer left
Nor
To the right
Straight as an arrow
Moving thru obstacles
Moving
Directly through
The dark
Sinister night
To a salvation
So glorious, so right
But
I don’t know that way
The way to go
Today, tonight
Don’t know
Either
What’s wrong
Or
What could be
Right.

Solely Heard, Solely Said
January 22, 2024
Solely heard, solely said
Those words
That
Were racing
Racing around my head.
Are they good?
Are they bad?
Answers in between
Something I’ve seen
But
Never had.

The World Spins
January 19, 2024
The world spins
revolves around
taking lives on a journey
the world beyond.
Grass grows, birds fly
rain drops
and sometimes
lovers must say goodbye.
The world is ours
We make it what we can
happy or sad, we live our lives
as the world revolves round
once again.

Could It Be?
January 17, 2024
Could it be?
Could it be that I can do
Whatever I need to
To be the one I want
Can be?
The answer
Is in my heart beating
Waiting for me to ask
To see
The path I need to take
To be
Be the best at what I want
What I can be.
