There across the table
Opportunity
Stands
Smiling sweetly
He beckons
He commands
He shows me.

My Choice To Make It
July 26, 2018
Feel my world change
For the better or the worse
My choice to make it
As I wish
The world doesn’t care
You see
Its moving as it should
It’s my choice to make it
The best, even better
Than a passing good.

Hidden Thoughts
July 25, 2018
Hidden Thoughts, secret lives
Never brought to the light
Held in darkness, cruel and rude
Fester abscess, no solitude.
Bring forth, let go
Rise the sun, curtains blow
In a wind of purity
pure white as the snow.
Then their secrets, dark and cold
Are exposed, let go
To live in happiness
That only you can ever know.

Uplifting A Life
July 24, 2018
Uplifting a life, mine or another
Feeling less anger, strife
With each endeavour.
No one is perfect
No one lives on their own
We are all connected in life
Our world, nothing is alone.
Savour each leaf, honour an insect
Going about it’s business
Unbeknown to the beaver floating
In the creek.
We are all connected
We all need to be uplifting, loving
One another no matter
Our way of life, our beliefs.

Helping Still
July 23, 2018
Helping still in the deep, dark mellow time
I can’t remember why or where
I met the soul who pulled me out
Stood beside and helped bring about
All the wondrous things
I now shout out.

When The Time Is Right
July 20, 2018
When the time is right and my heart is not cold
When I see things clear from stories told
When madness isn’t a partner in that yet to unfold
When I can stroll thru sadness unscathed and bold.
Then is when my journeys mine
And I’ll hold no grief for that which is not or won’t be kind.

Hearing Nothing
July 19, 2018
Hearing nothing, feeling all
How can I be in love
With nothing, nothing at all?
With words I wander in my mind
Imaging scenarios, images of all kinds
Maybe won’t come to pass
Maybe will last and last.
Doesn’t matter
For I see, I feel
While hearing nothing
Nothing not at all.

Honestly, Can’t Remember Anything
July 18, 2018
Honestly, can’t remember anything
Nor who I am in another life
I’m sure I lived and had command
Of all the things
In a life I can’t remember
Don’t understand.

I See The Beauty
July 17, 2018
I see the beauty
The magnificence
In all the land.
As I stand in awe of all
She reaches down
She touches me
She touches all.
She understands.

I Cope
July 16, 2018
In the heat of the moment
I cope
I learn to adjust
Not using mirrors, illusions
Or blinding smoke
I cope
Moving forward addressing
The matter, using kind words
Smiles and laughter
I cope
Nothing matters as much
As that I solve the issue
Adjust and move forward
That I cope.
