What We Hear
April 26, 2012
Behind It All
April 25, 2012Behind it all
Stands the Grande.
The one who knows
Watches all flow
The ebb and tide
Of each man.
There the Grande
There he stands.

Majesty Leads The Way
April 24, 2012Majesty leads the way
Thru all that may
Stand in the way.
Let it be.
Let it be all it can be
For I am here
Just an eternity.

Spirit Glowing, Burning Bright
April 23, 2012
Spirit glowing, burning bright
Threading through the dark of night.
Touching many with power’s might
Spreading darkness with clear, bright light
Bringing joy, making right.
May I know the kind and gentle
Guiding me through awful night.
Feel the glowing spirit bright.

My Friend John
April 20, 2012My friend John
Is never gone
Along with Carol
When I needed a friend
There was my friend John.
Showed the world
What men are made of
A true friend
My friend John.
All those memories
Are long gone
But not my friend
My friend John.
The body may wear
Give up and despair
But not the soul, the heart
Of a great, brave man
My friend John.
No remorse, no regrets
In this life he lives
Giving all for those
Surrounding, loving
My friend John.
Knowing you has been
A blessing
A treasure to behold
Thank you
My friend John.

Remorse, Difficulty Reigning Here
April 19, 2012Remorse
Difficulty reigning here
Nothing clear
Nothing, nothing clear.
Muddle on
Focus and see
The way out
Of this turbulent sea.

There I Am Standing
April 18, 2012There I am standing
Wondering where I am
And where I am is
Where I’ve been
And where I’m going.
But most of all
It’s where I am.
Where I am now standing
Wondering where I am.
I think.

Wind Blowing All Around
April 17, 2012
Wind blowing all around
Trees falling
Falling to the ground
Crashing, smashing all around
Terror where to hide
Terror, terror must decide.
Smashing, crashing
Wind howling all around
Hide in cover, don’t peek out
Be it known
Destruction all about
Wind blowing all around
Smashing hearts
To the ground.
Smashing, crashing
Bringing down
All that’s mighty
To the ground.

Hear The Lessons
April 16, 2012Hear the lessons in your head
Feel the words without any dread.
Know they’ve come to lead you
Where you need to tread.

Kado Feeling Blue
April 13, 2012Kado feeling blue
Feels the pain in his mouth
A tooth or two cracked off
Hurting, drooling too
Kado oh so blue.
Kado feeling blue
Its hard to be
A big guy in pain
And not show it too
Kado oh so blue.
Kado feeling blue
No supper, no dinner
Can’t eat so
Hungry now too
Kado oh so blue.
Kado feeling blue
Doctor pulled that damn tooth
Second one too
Hole size of a quarter
Where once a tooth
Used to chew
Oh Kado feeling blue.
Kado not so blue
Resting peacefully
Had some dinner too!
Life is good
Kado saw the tooth fairy
Kado not so blue.
