Reset my life in an instant
Like a roll of the dice
Never knowing where it’s going
Never understanding
Where I’ve just been
I’m here, moving
Going forward
With a smile and a grin.

Reset My Life
January 24, 2018
Everything
September 22, 2017
Everything is for a reason.
Not mine to wonder why.

I Did Not See
September 15, 2017I did not see
I did not know
The courage inside I’d have to show.

Please Let Me
September 6, 2017
Please let me
Be friendly
Not bitter nor condescending
Let me see beauty, dignity
In the world that surrounds me.
Please let me
Give help
To those that need
Strength to ones
Who are weakened.
Please let me
Show vision
To those whose minds
Are imprisoned.
Please let me.

Looking
August 30, 2017
Looking up to the sky
Looking for the answer
The reason why
The solid earth beneath my feet
Radiates love
Leaving no room
For defeat.
My mouth says words
Needed to be said
My hands hold
Thankfulness for all I see
And for the ground
On which I tread
Here, alongside thee.

Let The Memories Thrive
August 16, 2017
Let the memories thrive
In my head, my heart
Our lives.
Let them not control
The moments now
Nor allow me to live a lie.
But exist with their thoughts
To survive, to strive
To be alive.

You Are On My Journey
June 30, 2017
You are on my journey
I’m on your path
The way, it wanders but I can see
There is no more wrath.
Quiet acceptance
Honouring you, honouring me
Moving on into each our destinys.
I am on your path
You are on my road
We pass by smiling full with love
Wondering what life does hold.
Bide your time
I’ll let it be
A wondrous world spreading out
In front of thee.

I Think
April 10, 2017
I think
Think of things
Will they come true
Or will they fall into
An abyss so blue?
When I think like this
I may sometimes cringe
Or sometimes laugh
Cause sometimes
I think
Think of you at last.

May The Sun Shine Bright
December 31, 2016
May the sun shine bright
On the season
May joy and happiness
Be yours tonight.
May your heart be filled
With all things glorious
May you feel love
Tonight.
