Gone are the times
I used to know
fell
like leaves
in the fall.
Memories only
nothing
at all
of this time I’m living
living right now.

Holy Be Excited

Holy be excited
I see the world
Turn
Giving answers
To
Questions
That were
To me
Such a concern.

Sometimes
October 21, 2024
Sometimes
Sometimes you want
someone
to notice, to see
to
celebrate you.
Sometimes
Sometimes you don’t care
But
Sometimes
Sometimes you do.

Dead Leaves Fall
October 18, 2024
Dead leaves fall
Blowing
In the breeze
Falling to the grass
Floating
In the stream.
Dead leaves fall
Gathering
On the deck
And
Beneath barren trees.
Dead leaves fall
While children
Laugh
As they frolic in those
Now dead leaves.
That fell
That
Fall.

Slowly I Head For The Open Gate
October 17, 2024
Slowly
I head for the open gate
the door is
open
I must not wait.
Time will come
I’ll be gone
then
someone else
will guide you thru
that
open gate.
Safe, secure
you will follow me
into
what becomes
our true destiny.

My Mind Has Seen
October 16, 2024
My heart is ready
my mind has seen
all the glory
that’s
in the world
That
some have yet
to experience, to be part of
for them
unseen
Come join me
come see when you’re ready
the earth, the world
in
it’s magnificence
That’s
around you
all around you
to be
seen.

Needed
October 15, 2024
No more can I be
someone needing you
or
all those things
I’ve been
you thought I was
I needed
I wanted to be.
Now
I’ll change
I’ll stand on my own
I’ll be
I’ll say those things
that must be said
so
needed to be true.

I Must
October 11, 2024
I must
reach for the best
I must
know that tenderness
will bring joy and happiness
I must
make my world turn
with kindness, not hate
I must
I must seek
search, participate.

Away
October 7, 2024
I cannot
understand
where the sadness
came from
and
where it hides away.
To
creep out, to consume
when happiness
fades
goes away.

On Our Own
October 3, 2024
No more can I be
that one
you need me
to be
I must move on
I must
take care of me
You are on your path
your direction plotted
going
forward on your own
I’ll see you
I’ll think of you
once more
As we travel
our separate roads
travelling, travelling
on
our own.
