Hardly seen
Nor
Put upon as perfect
Yet
Here we are, here we be
Flourishing
Throughout the land
For all
To know
To feel, to touch
To see.

Near To Me
January 31, 2024
Holding in my heart
All the love you gave
Cherishing
All the thoughts I had
When you were close
Near to me.
Saddened by the thought
You’ve left, you’ve gone
Our love no more to be
But still
I have you always, in my heart
Near to me.

Peeking Thru The Light
January 30, 2024
Peeking thru the light
Breathing in the air
Magnificence is all I see
I need, I care.
No one else
Can do for me
What I need to do
Myself
One breath in, one breath out
Peering through the darkness
To the light
I need to walk, journey to
This is what life is all about.

I Struggle
January 29, 2024
I struggle to be
Someone
I’m not.
The reason I do
Can’t be understood
Can’t be
Reasoned away
With
Just any thought.

Hearing The Words Spoken
January 26, 2024
Hearing the words spoken
In love and respect
Makes my heart leap and regret
All the things that I’ve said.
Not believing the actions
The smiles
The love I did get.
Now
I know there was nothing pretend
All was truthful, out in the open
Love with no end.
I will embrace all that I have
Give back, be happy
Never again be sad.
For this that you’ve given me
I will embrace, love you forever
Knowing
It’s our chosen place.

A Token Of My Gratitude
January 25, 2024
A token of my gratitude
Shapes the way
I meet the day
Up to me
To see lovely beauty
In every thing, every way
There is badness
In the air
But no need to bring it in.
Let it go
Let it go away
You can deal with it
Another time, another day.

No Way To Go
January 24, 2024
No way to go
No way to know
The path that’s right
One that doesn’t veer left
Nor
To the right
Straight as an arrow
Moving thru obstacles
Moving
Directly through
The dark
Sinister night
To a salvation
So glorious, so right
But
I don’t know that way
The way to go
Today, tonight
Don’t know
Either
What’s wrong
Or
What could be
Right.

Can You See
January 23, 2024
Can you see
Where I’ve been
What I’ve seen?
Can you see
Can you see me?
I’m here
Nowhere
Nowhere else
But
Here.
Can you see
Can you see me?

Solely Heard, Solely Said
January 22, 2024
Solely heard, solely said
Those words
That
Were racing
Racing around my head.
Are they good?
Are they bad?
Answers in between
Something I’ve seen
But
Never had.

The World Spins
January 19, 2024
The world spins
revolves around
taking lives on a journey
the world beyond.
Grass grows, birds fly
rain drops
and sometimes
lovers must say goodbye.
The world is ours
We make it what we can
happy or sad, we live our lives
as the world revolves round
once again.
