I see you laughing
Talking to me
Your heart
Your mind free.
It may be tomorrow
When we meet again
I look forward to
Whenever it is.
Til then
I’ll be my best
As I dream of that time
When I see you once again.

Seething in the mist
Saddened by sorrow
Struggling to say
I don’t know why I let it effect me
Today.
Maybe tomorrow
Maybe later today I’ll feel better
I’ll let it go and celebrate
Everything sweet and beautiful
I experience just
Today.

Tic tock goes the clock
Ticking time away
No hesitate
No wait, wait!
Time goes on
Thru night and day
The same time
The only time
Ticking time away.

A hummingbird came
he sat
on the stair
his words were luscious
I knew he was there.
The beat of his wings
the flow of his heart
moved me to tears
I bowed down
I cried
I cried a lot.
For no more til spring
will I hear those sounds
as snow falls
baring down
on a land bleak
where
no hummingbird sounds.
Then
the snow will melt
the heavens wake
and
on his journey back
the hummingbird makes.

I am not a failure
I am me
I am not a success
I am me
I am not another
I am me
I am me.

No one seems to know
nor do they understand
the way to heaven
is always open
That
it’s there
Always
at their command.

Desperate happenings
Unfolding tonight
Leaving wonder
Far in the distant twilight
No time for remorse
Anger and fury is what
Is coming tonight.
For tomorrow
In the board, bright daylight
Could it be all will be
As if it never happened
Never made you cry
In the dead of the dark
Dark night.

I have heard your voice
Felt your gentle soul
Know your touch is
What I feel
When soft breezes blow.
I don’t need to see you
For I know you’re near
Holding me close forever
Forever, my sweet love
My sweet dear.

Not sure, not sure why
the world turns the way it does
clouds stream across the sky
birds sing and cows call.
I stand in the midst of it all
and
I’m not sure
not sure why.

Beauty
Beauty
Beauty
Beauty comes
Showering
Thru my window
Straight into
My waiting heart
No hesitation
Or startled start
Just
Calm enveloping
All that beats
Feeling love
Putting beauty
In
My beating heart.
