Just Be You
Often times we strive to reach the stars, but I have learned that if I focus on just being who I am, the star will reach for me.
Live the Moment!
Open your eyes Open your mind Cease your cries Split the rind Experience it all Breathe every breath Jump and fall Then bypass death Live for the moment And try life's flavor Hope for atonement In everything, savor Take my hand Jum
Life!
I look back at my life, and what do I see! mistake after mistake, and it was all me I could of been happy, and in love that's true But the drink and drugs, and other things to! Had there grips in me, there's nothing I can do I did a lot of wrong
Not Here, Nor There
Honestly...the words "neither here nor there" popped into my mind...and this is what I came up with 2 seconds ago on the spot.
F_A_N_T_A_S_Y (part 1)
theCrane was a deeply profound poet whom I had the opportunity to collaborate with last year. He is still the most challenging poet I have encountered as his poetry style and vocabularies truly surpass me ;)
F_A_N_T_A_S_Y (part 2)
(continuing from part 1) A collaborative poem with theCrane, a deeply profound poet.
A Parallel Universe
This is an enjoyable collaboration with Christian Candykid on a fantasy theme. Beautifully blending a logical/pragmatic mind with an imaginative/creative mind. He is very wonderful to work with.
ELLE
THIS POEM IS WRITTEN SOLELY FOR ELLE BLUDYLASKY! SHE"S A BEAUTIFUL GIRL WHO TOOK ME BY SURPRISE!THE WORDS JUST CAME TO ME WHILE GAZING INTO HER EYES! SHE SHOULD HAVE WORDS LIKE THIS SPOKEN TO HER EVERYDAY OF HER LIFE!
Mind Concerto
With one precise wave of the baton the Oboe starts playing a single melody beautiful notes flowing upwards, fluttering downwards reverently renders on the last note well-balanced diaphragm for soft and loud tunes before the final note disappears
~staged~

My Wish for You
I created this poem for sharejoysproject.org- inspirational goodies to uplift and encourage others as a catalyst towards positive change in the world.
A Hug Today
I was inspired by a similar poem, " A Hug" by an author unknown some time ago. I love affection and it makes such a difference, especially to those who are rarely touched in this world- such as those living on the streets.
The Untouchable Lovable Difference
This poem is one that is extra special to me, for it acknowledges that people at their seemingly worst, are still a valuable, meaningful part of humanity. For instance, anyone in a homeless situation can make a positive difference and some do- many, perhaps! This is what it means to me, in my experience in Eugene, Oregon. I am grateful that some of our unhoused members are as kind and giving as they are, just as any other- if not more, at times. Perhaps, because they are treated with such grace and respect vs. another locality?
A Beautiful Romance........

THE REAL TRUTH
THE LORD IS REAL FOR HE GAVE ME A GREAT GIFT WHICH MAN HAS LOOKED FOR SINCE THE BEGINNING OF TIME!
A BLISSFUL THING OF ECSTASY!
I have a woman friend, actually more if we can ever get together, who is involved in Third World Country Humanitarian Work! We have never met but seem to have parallel hearts for hurting people. Rachel is taking money out of her inheritance and feeding the poor. How many people do you know who would go to a country and do it personally! Love You Rachel!
Experience Life
Why smile at the sun as it brings forth the dawn? Why count the stars that light up the night? Why join the birds in their beautiful song? Why ask the fox what secrets it hides? Why point out shapes in the clouds high above? Why dance to the r
Night & Day
I kept my head down to stare at the ground. What is there to see in a sky as dark as can be? With no stars to light the way, I lose my hope for a coming day. I walk alone in darkness, surrounded by the heartless. Slowly getting old. Quickly
Pursuit
Don't back down from what you dream As difficult as the task may seem Others might not be so keen But don't give in to fear Just listen to your wild side Let curiosity be your guide It's the chance of a lifetime So take it while it's here
Perserverence
With no windows or doors to be seen, I tear down the walls between. Though there will be obstacles, never will they keep us from being together. I'll break these chains with the strength I retain, until nothing remains to part us again. C
Progress
I've been floating in my own gloom for much too long-- drifting along with the tides of my mind with no heading, always dreading what will soon become of my life if I don't change. It's so strange how one thought could lift my gaze up from the
A Tear For A Tulip
A thousand tears I shed To water the seeds I've planted Pulling out weeds With broken fingers The pain inside still lingers At last Spring is here Much time has passed Since I last shed a tear It's amazing how much power You get from fin
Caged
I've locked myself away where no one else can see the hell I go through everyday that's slowly killing me. It's been so long since I have seen the light of day, that I don't know if I will die or keep wasting away. Since I've had many nig
Autumn Fires
I wrote this poem in response to a friend calling me a "dreamer". It's still one of my favorite poems I've written. The idea that dreams and dreamers are necessary to waking inspiration is a beautiful thought. Where would we be today without the dreamers of the past?
THANK YOU MR. DIAMOND!

The Facts of Life
Our days quickly passing by To slow the aging process, we usually try Regardless, they go so fast Our final destination, they cast Reminding us of the memories of our past Telling us that all we have is today We must exert every possible effort

My Quotes
I cheated on my fears, broke up with my doubts, got engaged to my faith and now I'm marrying my dreams. Failure is an opportunity to begin again with more intelligence. Teach your daughter about shattering glass ceilings, not about glass slip
True Beauty
Have you ever grasped the true meaning of beauty? Is it the face you see in the mirror every day? No Beauty is not defined by what you see in the mirror... Beauty is the impact you make on others due to your mere existence on this earth Beauty i

Never give up hope
It's just something that I wrote to let people who got problems to know that to never give up on life or love the world can be a cruel place to live in at times.
