war

war is hellish time mispent
all the lives that came and went
and for what reason was any good done?
seems like pain for everyone
and the damage collateral,
the innocents feel
as the news shows
play each reel living
hings always pay the price
hello there governments
that is not very nice!!!!

end trail

if my head walks where the earth is still,
my feet will try to follow.
but my heart goes where my head will not,
leaving itself so hurt and hollow.

barge

in the scheme of things
that are not so large,
upon my tranquillity
some issues barge.
to shut them out,
on my path to stay,
just turning aside
until they go away.

valentine

What is the meaning of a valentine
Is it a pretty bunch of flowers
with a card and a glass of wine?
Is about rushing
to the department store
After the gift is open,
Wrapping lies on the floor
Or is it about the joining
Of simpatico souls
The celebration of love
Two halves making
One whole
The feeling of together
Even when apart
The meaning of forever
Locked inside one’s heart

the snowflakes dancing gently around, enjoying their freedom before they hit the ground

at times we sit here so surprised

at times we sit here so surprised
at the challenges we face
and those to which we rise.
we keep on going, not discouraged.
so we keep on growing,
inside our courage.
we live each day
as though it were our last,
doing everything we can
to forget the past..
to forge a future
bright and clear,
what better reason
do we live here?

we

we eat, we breathe.
we love,we grieve.
we live, we die.
we make some people cry.
we walk so fast,
we run too slow,
sometimes we have
no place to go.
can we do more
with life than this,
can we embrace
each moment with a kiss?
