Sitting under the big sun The heat makes me sleepy In a lethargic state of mind My thoughts are on fire My feelings sweat out of me Sunbeams dance on my brow A smile plays across my lips My heart beats in time Majors and minors Music surrounds me I'm trapped between worlds Of reality and fantasy The clouds whisper to me Their message is conveyed In their soft visage All roads lead to youEvery fork that is presented Is alw...

Many years of health Blessing flowed abundantly Laughter, love and peace Without permission Beneath the surface growing Tumors of evil Tears of fear crying Uncertain times lie ahead Love will get us through Sickness darkness light A vicious circle of health Winter days so bleak Spring days get longer Sunshine through the clouds breaks free Haze covers us again Summer brings a knife Malevolent lumps removed Only scars rema...

Cries for help ring out Your love disappears for good Sun behind the clouds

The thoughts in my head Snowflakes falling from the sky Swirling randomly

I sometimes lay awakeWonderingIf you understandThe feeling that I feel Every now and then I lay awakeDreaming About what can never beAn unrequited love I can't help but ponderThe effect you have on meYou permeate my very beingTo the fiber of my soul The sight of your hairGlistening in the sunYour skin and your shapeBeauty is defined by you I sometimes lay in bedSleeping, dreamingHearing your voiceLike a whisper in my ears...

What does a poet need to compose a thought? Where is the inspiration That starts as a tiny seed?How do the words forminto pictures of the heart?Do the eyes of the scribetranslate?

Soft sunshine through trees Footsteps crunch fresh fallen leaves Two hearts become one

Alone! I cry I'm so alone Surrounded by family Surrounded by friends Yet so alone Thoughts in my head A swirling mess Darkness comes Daylight goes Alone I cry I pray to God He seems not near Maybe it's me I'm not sincere I feel alone Suddenly it happens The music plays Praise Worship The light gets brighter Thoughts still race I chase them away A lightened load An un-burdened heart I feel less alone I have figured it out...

You lay in my arms Your breathing so shallow Tears abound The end is near We had each other For a short time But we always knew The end was near A wee babe So weak, so frail The end drew near So much effort To help you live The end came near Tears fall Prayers rise The end so near Answered prayer Angels rejoice The end...is here

Walking beside you Rushing water and bright sun Dreams in my head run
