No one knows
Nor
Do they tell
Why the world turns
And
Doesn’t fall
Into hell.
Maybe it has
Maybe
There we are
No one knows
Nor
Do they tell.

No More To Say
January 10, 2023
No More
To Say
No more
To do
Going forward
Just
We two.
Loving
Every minute
Laughing
All the time
We will do it
Just
Give us
A little more time.

I Do Remember
January 6, 2023
I do remember
Your loving grace
The innocent smile upon your face
Your strong embrace.
I do remember
Shelter in a troubled world
Your ability of slowing down
A hectic pace.
I do remember
A simple kind gesture
Sweetness on your face
A peaceful existence.
All this I do
I do remember.

Wondering What
January 5, 2023
Sitting here wondering
What has begun
What will take place
What has run to it’s end
What has not.
These are things I think about
I take to my heart
For it must live through every single thing
Every single bit and not skip a beat
No, it must not.

Going Forward, Not Looking Back
January 3, 2023
Going forward, not looking back
Leaving badness in the past
Let no one be carried
On a bed of sadness
But
Rejoice, go forward
Pursuing happiness.

Figure It Out
December 21, 2022
Let me figure it out
Thoughts run through my mind
trying to see the answer to make everything
I want to happen
come about.
Think seriously, think again
see the path, the way
construct how I’m going to get there
the why, where
and
how it’s going to come about
Let me sit down quietly
take a deep, soft breath in
think
figure it out.

Beauty In Nature
December 20, 2022We come to see
The beauty in nature
Here, for all
To see.
Just take a breath
Look around
See
All the magnificence
That nature has given
To you, to me

Snow Flies
December 16, 2022
Snow flies
And we answer
Why? Why?
Blizzards blow fierce white
Changing darkness
Into a brilliant seeing night.
Cold with icicles
Dripping down
Covering a frigid, frozen ground.
Rivers run underneath
A covering of ice and snow
Sometimes more than a foot deep.
We live thru this
We
We do exist.

Changes
December 15, 2022
Changes come
Changes go
Changing everything we think
We know
Tomorrow will be different
Tomorrow another day
Changing in weather, beliefs
So many ways
Still here we are
In the midst of those changes
Changing our thoughts
Changing
Changing this day.

Ghosts Of Devils Pass
December 14, 2022
Ghosts of devils past
Reign
Their leering faces laugh
Shrieking insane
It goes on and on
It seems to last
And
Last and last.
Those devils are just ghosts
Still
They haunt my head, my heart
They make me relive thoughts
I’d rather not
Those ghosts
Those devils of the past.
