Seeing ideas, hearing plans
feeling emotions
of
what could be
what I could accomplish
that
that I should start
to plan.
Smile gently
speak about my vision’s plan
hear
how I can execute
all those things
that’ll bring it to reality
more than just
a plan.

I remember memories
Both sad and joyous
Memories
They come to me
When I don’t notice
Memories
My mind will be elsewhere
And suddenly they’re there
Memories
Real or imagined
Staring at me
Laughing hysterically
Memories
Nothing seems to matter
Cause I remember
Memories.

Terrible times do occur
Marching lines, men’s faces obscure
No more joy, lightly skipping breeze
Heartache, morse pretty bleak.
Then the sun shines oh so bright
Lighting the way both day and night
No more tears, sadness blame
All is well once again.

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?

The world spins
it turns round
Bringing beauty
to those that
surround
Their hearts with kindness
all things
that in this world
do abound.

Holding still, breathing quietly
Deeply
Seeing
life
as it should be
Making
no changes
that would hurt another being
Hearing
magnificence
in
the beauty all around me
Pleased
that I’m here
that
I live now
Holding still, breathing quietly

As I sit here facing life
Must decide my mission
The way I choose
To ride the ups and downs
The about face
The turnarounds
No road is straight
No path without a winding curve
Negotiate
Living life on your own terms.

Let me feel
love and grace
let me embrace all this
that nature has to give
gives
with love and natural grace.
Let me not endure
for long
sadness nor despair
let happiness and love
prevail
chasing away all that’s wrong
all that doesn’t care.

May
Your heart be full of joy
Your words convey pleasure
Your eyes see pure beauty
Your ears believe.
