Friday Is Today

June 14, 2013

Friday is today
End of one start of another
Just like every other Friday.

I pray I make it good
This day this Friday.

The Sun Is Shining

June 13, 2013

The sun is shining
The grass is green
Let’s go see
What should have been.

Sadly, Secret Murky Tiled

June 12, 2013

Sadly, secret murky tiled
No hope, destitute merciless bile
Twist, turn fight and bat
Get to where the strength is at

Mess, mired deep down in
No way open can’t begin
Mutter, sputter rage and fume
Makes no difference

The rose still blooms.

This Is It

This is it
This is as good as it gets.

I’m here to tell you
That for all of us
It is as good as
We want it to be

Nothing changes
Unless you want it

Garner from
Your loss and the bad
A magnificence
Unsurpassed

Yes you can do what
No one else ever has

Journey to your centre
Find the place
You really are
From there go out
And spread your glory

Near
And there so far.

This Is A Beginning

This is a beginning
And a end
This is when we wonder
Where oh where
Have we been?

Seeing thru
The mist of opportunity
Both those exciting
And ones we may
Have missed.

This is a beginning
Don’t miss the opportunity
Make sure you enjoy it
All the way to
A happy the end.

Did You See What I Saw?

June 6, 2013

Did you see what I saw?
Will you do what I did?
Can you go where I have gone?

My travels and travails are mine
Yours are yours and have begun
So you begone.

The Last Page

June 5, 2013

Boat in Aruba ~ photo by Patrice

The last page in a book
The last page in a life
Written
With a hand dipped in love.

Read with knowledge
Of a end
That lives on in a mind
Filled
With unconditional love.

Yes
It’s the last page in a book
And you’ll find another one
Knowing it too
Will be written
With unconditional love.

Anticipation

June 4, 2013

Anticipation
Anticipation of what can and will be
Sadness, sorrow
Or
Unprecedented ecstasy
Mine to control
With the best there is
Anticipation
That’s what it is.

The Winds Of Change Are Changing

June 3, 2013

The winds of change are changing
The known is not here
We all believe in the future
We all want it to be right here.

The winds of change are changing
Bringing the future back to here
Everything we’re holding
Everything so oh so dear
Will soon be far, far in the rear.

The winds of change are changing
The present soon too, far in the rear
The future before us
Hold it close, hold it dear but
Never forget those we cherish
They’re now in the rear.
