I’ve seen your sweet face
Smiling
Full of grace.
All
I can do
Is
Try to be as great
As great as you.

I’ve Seen Your Sweet Face
February 7, 2025
No More
February 6, 2025
No more
will you be
my source of happiness
my ecstasy.
No more
can I say sweet words
no, not today
like
yesterday.
No more
will I be the one
who helps you
makes sure
you’re not wanting for anything
nothing.
No
no more, no more
not
today.

Yes I Can
February 4, 2025
Yes I can
I really will
make more of today
than
I did in yesterday.
Striving
only
to be me
into
tomorrow
with
pleasant dignity.

Most
February 3, 2025
Sending love, sending hope
trusting
in
the world to survive, to cope
with
the trials and hardships
that come to all of us
not
just a few
but
most
You are in
my thoughts, my actions
I will live my life
believing
good will triumph
we’ll have
what we need
need
the most.

Let The World Turn
January 31, 2025
Let the world turn
resolve the problems
that really are not our concern.
Let the sky be blue not with sadness
but remembering memories not gone
not lost from me, from you.
See the earth tremble
cry in anticipation of wondrous joy to come
never seeing anything but a good outcome.
That’s what we should see when looking out
looking at the world and all the things
that will become.

Not This Morning, This Evening Nor Today
January 30, 2025
Heard you speaking
heard you say
words
I don’t understand
Not this morning
this evening
nor
today
Your lips move
sounds say
things
I can’t comprehend
No
Not this morning
this evening
nor
today.

Slowly, Cautiously I Proceed
January 29, 2025
Slowly, cautiously
I proceed
thru life
seeking to find
a place
divine
Where I can live
be myself
not destroying another
or
being blind
to the hurts of others
Slowly, cautiously
I proceed
I’m on my way
following this path
throughout
the minute, the hour
the day.

You Haven’t Seen
January 28, 2025
You haven’t seen
haven’t felt
what
I have
What has been
Hopefully tomorrow
we’ll be in sync
then
you’ll see
Everything.

Hidden Deep Within
January 27, 2025
Hidden deep within
is a secret
of
how to begin
a life so wonderful
so full
of lovely things
that
I can’t wait
oh no
can’t wait
wait to begin.
