We are changing
Where we are.
We don’t see
What we’ve done.
We don’t belong
Where we need to be.
We are masking
Conceit with happy.
We are changing
Fortunately.

Hold Out To Help
March 2, 2015
Hold out to help those that need
Including you if you please
Follow the path to the road
Journey on
On adventures still untold.
Don’t look back, look straight ahead
Glance to the left, look to the right
Keeping your focus on that bright, glowing light
There ahead
Showing you your own true life.

Three Years Ago Tomorrow
February 27, 2015
Three years ago tomorrow,
Monty died today.
I Feel the sadness and the pain
Just like it was yesterday.
He stayed with us a little longer
Not for himself, but to help make us stronger,
To be able to accept that final day.
Three years ago tomorrow,
When Monty died today.
To cherish and remember
All that was good and dear.
About Monty,
who three years ago tomorrow
Died today.
The last day of February,
The 29th to be exact
Which tomorrow isn’t there
So, three years ago tomorrow,
Monty died today.

Hearts Aflame
February 26, 2015
Thunder crashes hearts aflame in anger
Love
All things no one can blame
No answers right
Nor all wrong found tonight
Only thoughts a hunger for those
Roaming a tortured mind
Late in this cold, dark night.

Cold And White
February 25, 2015
Cold and white
Blowing blizzard on this night.
Blaze aflame with no aim
To be the one who warms your heart
Frozen by drifting, deadly white.

Sitting Down To Write
February 23, 2015Sitting down to write my life
Hear it flow from start
Thru heartache, pressures
And some strife
Coming out full of joy
Learning, seeing warmth glow
Radiating with sweet love.
Can this, could this be my life?

Destiny
February 18, 2015
Anchors surrounding me
Pulling down
Into depths of destiny
Weighed by happenings
I have no way of breaking free
Destiny
Destiny is pulling me.

Focus On Falling Snow
February 17, 2015
Focus on falling snow
Dropping, falling, drifting
Blow.
Filling cracks in heart and soul
Holding softly footsteps
Traced in falling white.
Moving with
No cares in sight
Blanketed in soften, drifting white.

Much Has Been Said
February 10, 2015Much has been said and no one is right
All must bond, sitting together tonight
Saying not a word til dawn’s morning light
Then only if heartfelt last night
More can be said by not saying a thing
A nod, a wave can convey everything.
Follow your soul, your heart and your mind
Say the words slow, let them trickle
Giving time to know what they are
Making sure they’re clearly defined
So one can say
Not much has been said but all is sublime.
