I remember, when
Life was simpler, when
Grass was greener, when
Skies were bluer, when
Sun was warmer, when
Breezes were softer, when
Colors were brighter, when
Bees buzzzzzed, when
Rivers ran deeper, when
Oceans were winder, when
Trees were taller, when
Birds were singing, when
First we met, when
Love was sweet, when






You were by my side...

This is for a very dear friend in her time of sorrow.......



"An overlooked secret of humans, my friend,
is that each is a seed that will flower,
and that each has a future of limitless joy,
whatever the pains of the hour.

And I tell you that no love has ever been lost
nor is anything out of place--
that your work is to strive, to give and to know
in this journey through time and space.

My grandmother told me the same when she died
and I willingly pass it along.
May your living go deeper than what you can see
and your heart hear the Infinite Song."




If you need a shoulder,I am here for you.......

Even moms from above with golden gloves
Happy Mother's Day to all being the right gender...

Subtly on standby
Waiting...
C*cked and ready
Swiveling..side to side...

Eyes peeled
Hair tucked behind her ears
Air releasing from her cushion
Scooching, repositioning

Hands flex and extend
They're cramped
Revelations

Fantasy takes her over
And composition clacks
Tapping out feverishly

She's done
Her thrill is achieved
She's all satisfied with
Her"self"

A climactic reach
To gain approval
And feed his hollow heart

To hang inverted by the knee.

She got snooted
Cuz she thought she wuz booted
After her own horn she had tooted
Sounded all high fuh-luted.

Went off poutin'
Tale tucked and doubtin'
Left town to so scoutin'
Her "authority" she keeps floutin'

Went off to reload
Came back to play with a toad
Won't be the last time she'll goad
She must like that same road




Guess who? No, not you.lol.

Battered, beat and broken
Unforgiving hazel eyes
A girl almost of seventeen
Full of herself and utmost lies

Sick and tired of wishing
Lost in the darkest time...
She hopes for one to love her
To hear the words "he's mine"

Not one would hear her cries
Or sought the given favor
When crying out in bland mistrust
The thoughts they all would waver

The truth in all was lost at once
For better or for worse
And in plain words she was nothing
Just a walking, living curse

Frozen into stainless glass
Mislead into the world
A life so full of promises
And the lies of one lost girl

One pathological liar

A book of many flaws

All looked upon her in disgust

For that was who she was

A troubled heart, a troubled mind
that never meant to be unkind.
No way to undo what's been done
Nowhere to hide nowhere to run

Only time can heal the pain
but till such time hurts remain
No use in even saying sorry
No way to escape the worry

she should move on,there is no doubt
play with others and never pout
stop acting like the innocent one
only respond with positives and fun.....

A mixed bag of beans
...and a slab of fatback

Some 'taters from the ground.



Greens from a spinach top
...with vinegar to taste

Makes the muscles to abound.



But binding not the constitution
...for the stone upon which it lays

As freedom shall surely ring forever and a day.

Damned if I is and damned if I ain’t

Everyone knows that I’m no saint

Trippin’ through this life with my head held high

Sometimes I get to thinkin’ that I’m gonna die



What’s it all for when I look around

If it weren’t for the Lord, I know that I’d drown

In a sea of craziness, death, and such

The devil’s everywhere, it’s just too much



Now what would you do, you dog of the sea

Call on your buddies to mess with me

Or drop to the ground and scream at God

Stop all of that, after all, it’s His sod



I’m dangling from a string over a pit of fire

Wondering where I’m headed, my hearts desire

Then I hear a rumble, a roar, and a blast

And dream about the day there’s a Harley under my ass



Ride away while the ridin is good........

A word hear, or there, just for fluff
It is easy fer me to spiel ya see
A creative, or witty, free bee.

I nose what I writ an' always right
Dun need no licker day nor night
Jesse was a James so I hath bin told
Rob my bank ... in the days of olde.

Patience is a hearty lot
Is there something I forgot?

Sadness

Some sadnesses are pretty,
Because they're worn deep from the heart,
They show our vulnerable side,
And set our other emotions apart.

Some sadnesses are ugly
Because they are born from seeds of hate,
And when they are watered,
They never will abate.

Some sadnesses arrive,
Knocking on our doors,
It seems like it will never leave,
And oozes from the pores.

Some sadnesses are fleeting,
A mere mood that can be lifted,
A friend who calls,
A sincere hug,
Or some humor shared and gifted.

Some sadnesses are hidden,
From shame or deep regret,
We smile through the type of tears,
And try not to show our fret.

Sadnesses of all types,
Are sadnesses too many,
I would rather see everyone join hearts,
And share what joys are plenty.

As a child, I would sit and ponder,
at the wooded areas, for their beauty relaxed me.
The sway of the branches and whistling of the winds,
as if they were calling my name.

Then as I grew older, they were my retreat,
for the woods became my own world.
A world full of imagination, creativity,
resourcefulness, as well as inspiration.

I loved my domain, for no problems were to great,
the woods protected me from everything.
The branches would open as to hold me.
The animals, in their busy ways, stopped to welcome me.

It was this place, my wooded world, that I lived for.
It is that place that beckons me now.
For it was only there, in them woods, I felt truly free.
As free as I would feel when your love would surround me.

Heaven is a place for angels
Floating with time forgotten
Swinging on the swing with passion
Leaving the past of rotten.....

Life was a way of knowing
what our demise has left behind
nothing but pasts unknowing
but future has gives us showing.......

float on the wings of angels
sail on the seven seas
lift your spirit high
but never get off your knees........

beg for nothing
promise me that
get where you're going
never tip your hat.......

be proud,ever so proud
lift your head up high
always remember,do it daily
why would you ever cry??????

Through good times & bad
through thick & through thin
when I didn't belong you help me fit in
you gave me a place in a world strange to me
your sweet smiling face was I could see
in a world full of frowns your laughter came through
when I found a friend that was true
And yes I mean you........

neither a lender nor a borrower be
you are the important one, not me.

I have not written in some time
There were no words to find that rhyme
Days and days of rushing about
None of regret but many with doubt.
Things have I forgotten to do?
Grabbing my keys and slipping on shoes
Out the door with a hurried glance
Feeling I might miss one more chance
Rush away, blow a kiss, give a hug, say good bye
Be back soon, be good, I will say Hi.
So many times I would just hurry away
I know she wanted nothing more than me to stay....
How to balance between those living and leaving
So many times set my heart to grieving.
We all are going each day, one more step, more strife
Closer to the jumping off point of our life
But on your way out of that door each day
Never forget to love and "I Love You" to say.

Once upon a time, in the land of make believe
A boy told everyone, he was going to leave
Finding new life for two, in the real world
He met a young girl, two hearts, how they whirled

I know that I don't always say the right things
If I could I'd lift you up on angel's wings
You deserve every shred of joy you receive
Every time I look in your eyes I always believe
That everything is going to be fine
As long as I keep walking this line
I don't fear the future as long as it's with you
Holding your hand I will always pull through

This feeling inside is hard to describe
I want to be there when you need me
Emotions like this are not free
Sometimes it's like I don't have a clue
But in this moment I promise to be true
I could never do anything to cause you pain
So right behind you I will always remain
If you stumble I want to be the one
To pick you back up and together we can run

Trust me when I say you are meant to be so much more
I'll be waiting when you walk through that door
Being apart from you just drives me insane
I love to just think about you and stand in the rain
Although I'm not one to cry
Just thinking about you brings a tear to my eye
When you need me just turn around
I'll hold you until you are strong
My love for you knows no bounds........

The Break of Dawn

I woke up early this morning
When the sun had not yet started shining
The air felt fresh and chill,
And I sat here perched quiet and still..
Thinking about what the day has in store for me,
New hopes and promises I got to see…

(unknown)


Time to go.. Have a lovely day.

You got his purple heart,
And he got all his old guns,
I have a pendant of him as a lil boy,
And his old army trunk.

Those lil wood dutch shoes he
Brought back from Germany,
I passed them to my nephew,
whom I hear has now enlisted,
and headed off to Missouri.

I have a photocopied book of
Old accounts so hard to read;
His portrait won an award one time
I never asked what the photographer must have thought ,
in it what he had seen.

Why do so many questions come,
so long after folks are gone,
I wish he were here still,
so I could ask them all,


I want to know so much more
Than my youth cared to learn,
and how I wish all those who have passed could come back,
for that I surely yearn.

A happy WW2 vet he was, an elfin kind of joy, loved to share his riddles,
small magic tricks was his lore.
He thought himself so funny, yet serious he could be,
I wonder if there's any part of him that's carried forth in me.
