This is YOUR time

It is so easy to watch, the world in a box
Instead of securing your own destiny, like fort knox
To spectate great movement and never even know
That you can watch til late, and never actually grow

The problem with this kind, is they often put others first
Yet they believe in self hunger, they have that self thirst
But they have that constant thought, that they want to join the race
The sad truth is, that they need to realise it's THEIR time that they waste

Live in YOUR moment and follow all YOUR dreams
Take that one shot, be complete by all means
Why watch others with envy, with great jobs or in love
While stuck in the darkness, this confused white dove

Be wild, have fun, and set yourself goals
Look within to find, your destiny, your role
Don't just smile with joy and be happy for others success
Take your life to those levels, don't accept anything less

CHARACTER GUEST

People who crossed, our path can leave
Strong impressions... do they deceive
Given a chance, to make our choice
Listen with care, to an inner voice

May have sent warnings, over time
Silent actions, as clowns can mime
Comic-clown, are words in jest
Character portrayed, mere guest

Once experienced, truth unfurled
Shock-pain, at our spirit hurled
Being fore-warned, allows to know
Path-direction, our future must go

mystery of rose

it is not our business to fathom the mystery of rose
Perhaps our business is to float within the magic of the rose
Camp behind wisdom
Wash our hands in the ecstasy of a leaf and waling to the table
And be born again when the sun rises in the mornings
Let’s allow our excitement to fly
Let’s pour water upon the perception of space, color, sound and the window of flowers
Let’s set heaven between two syllables of existence
Let’s is fill and empty our lungs with eternity
Let’s lift down the burden of knowledge from the shoulders of the swallow
Let’s take back our name from the cloud
From the plane tree, mosquito, summer
Let’s mount to the height of kindness of the wet feet of rain
Let’s open the door open the door to mankind, light, plants and inspects

PARTING

Oh, don’t you think
I’m worried about something much,
I’m crying over something much,
And don’t you also think
I’ll make some vow before Most High.
It’s just that it is really hard,
It’s hard for me with you to part,
Or otherwise what’s death,
What is the death?
Death is just parting of the soul
With sinful body shell.

Lull Of The Day

Lull of the day
My mind's in a dreamy state
Clouds are a slow drifting gray
Just what I ordered and the rain will have to wait

Lull of the day
Peace surrounds me so still
No words do I speak this is how I pray
If only someone could know how I feel

Lull of the day
Stay with me for hours on end
I think your style is a ok
And now the rain has to wait on the wind

NORMAL....

What is a life, but good bits and bad
Smiles and laughter, balanced by sad
Rain and sunshine, an accepted mix
Hours-minutes, hands-move-clock-tics

Shouldn't need one, without the other
Living alone, or shared with a lover
New Born to children, who will grow
Seeds in soil, that nature must sow

This is life, like seasons each year
Joy filled emotions, ending in tears
Cold verses warm, ice thawed by sun
People walk, swim,dance, others run

What's normal, who can truthfully tell
We're told of heaven, opposite to hell
So many options, can come with a life
At a bride throw petals, other use rice

When you decide, what normal really is
What makes your emotions, explode-fizz
Accept you can be different, being you
Observing other, watching out for clues

Harley and Me...........

Reflecting back on days gone by
Memories of a tear run dry
A passion exuded by friends in life
Driven by joy but ended in strife
Opened my eyes to what is desire
How is it fuelled this eternal fire
No tragedy or broken dreams
Would shatter all that it seems
Keeping perspective and staying true
Always the love and never the blue
Picking up the pieces and looking ahead
Never wondering of a passion dead
Forever dedicated to their point of view
Forever in love with what they do.......

About this poem:
I had two different friends that had the same passion for riding and owning Harley Davidson motorcycles..........one I watched as he rebuilt his bike after being cleaned up by a cane harvester and losing his leg in the process but not to be deterred rode that bike again ......the other saved cent by cent over a 14 month period to buy the bike of his dreams.........each time I bumped into him he shared his counting with me ......it saddened me to hear he had also lost his leg in an accident and I am certain had I run into him again I am sure he would have been counting again ............

INVISIBLE SHIELDS...

Moments in time, when you feel alone
Whether in a crowd, or alone at home
An invisible shield, wraps you around
Emotions empty, hear muffled sounds.

Penetrating shield, hovers as cloud
A cotton wool cocoon, soft not loud
A rush of wind, as music or a voice
Drifts in space, you have no choice

Then it ends, as a voice may reach
Through cotton-wool mask, it seeps
As waves reach shore, dragged away
Moment may pass, but memory stays

Of times in shock, reality got lost
You couldn't focus, considered cost
In life we cope, with variety of pain
Tears may fall, human type of rain

Each hurdle passed, strength becomes
Our shield of life, as thoughts run
Any experience earned, our defence
Instigates warning, with common sense

~Landing~

Prevailing winds of directional flow
Riding on times, tick of the clock
A cloud passes by the sun evermore
Never a day with a shadow not seen.

All the thoughts in the world
Electrical charge
Overdose of input
Universal the place.

Sound of the water
From empty shells held
Embarked on that journey
That created a thought.
~
Was watching my cat devour his treat
I'd realized just then simple state of mind.
~
Petty urban howls that darken the night
Excluding the mind from where it should be
There's a picture that's big, if you know how to find
The nail to hang it, into your time.
