in the solstice of the winter sun
the old fella seeks what's known
refuge from the morning glum
a place to warm his bones
his verandah lay open there
for all who do pass by
i'm sure if you'd stopped to share
his words would never run dry
a steaming mug of brew
resides by his side
as he settles in his pew
with a smile he cannot hide
no more does he worry
no more does he care
no more does he hurry
his time is now his share
a lifetime of early morns
working hard every day
a lifetime of beautiful dawns
to help him on his way
he's earned his place in the sun
amidst the tar and cane
and wallows in his daily fun
for time is now his gain........

She whispers sweet
nothings in our
ear..
and we cannot
hear it..
In her eyes are
the whisper of
true love..
Yet.. we do not
see it..
With her tamberine
she dances
for us..
but we do not
rejoice..
And with her heart
does come the
whisper of a
thousand passions..
But, Behold! we will
not receive it..
And in so doing
we break the heart
of a velvet night
whose stars fall
at the feet of
she who whispers..
and they weep..
For their joy
is no more..

Lightning flashes
Thunder rumbles
Jagged tears in sky
Wind a howling
Driving rain
Icy blasts there
Mankind trembles
Nature's fury
All to see there

May the tickboxes in your wishlist
be greatly reduced this coming new year...
May it be more bountiful
with what is genuinely best for you,
as your wellbeing is
precious & most dear ...
And may your life be in an even better place
with whoever & wherever
towards your destiny
the winds of fate will steer ....
All these and more,
I wish for you ... with intentions
wellmeant ... heartfelt ... and sincere ...

You roll over, expecting
The woman you love, to
Catch your falling arm
With her soft, feminine
Body; anxious to receive
Your late night embrace.

It takes a few seconds to
Realize that she's not there.
Calling out softly " Hon?".
No answer; this time a little
Louder, a little firmer
" Honey, you OK?" Still nothing.

Rising to a sitting position,
You try to tune your ears to any
Sound of the night that is abnormal.
The refrigerator hum, the whir
Of the alarm clock, the barking of
A neighbors dog, the usual things,
Nothing more.

Then as if were a blast of thunder,
But still soft, you hear;
"Out." Then a moment of silence,
And the rumpling of paper.
"Out." Silence. "Save, save,
Not sure." Silence.

Journeying out to the living room,
You find your AWOL souse,
Sitting in yoga position, wearing
What she went to bed in,
With Mt. Saint Helen opened,
And it's volcanic ash spewed
Around her, in a semicircle.

You sit down on the sofa,
She ignores you.
You ask with an innocent tone,
If she's OK.
She gives you that "I hate men!" look.

You've got her! You can do
Anything you want, except try
To make love to her.
She's not going to move,
Nothing's going to deter her from
Mission Impossible; she's going
To clean out HER PURSE if
It takes the rest of her life!

Looking at your own landfill
In the living room, you lean
Over her and gently kiss
The top of her head, and
Wish her good night.

She growls some obscenity at you.
As you walk back to the bedroom,
You hear "Out," Silence. "Out ....

In the summer we played
through the warm
sunny days,
we laid back
and soaked up the rays.

In the fall
we dressed up,
drank cider
from a cup
not wanting
to view the
seasons facts.

Now winter has come
our sweaters
we don
cooped up inside
by the fire
we reside
living through
winters pain.

Finally! spring
has sprung
we jump
and run
through the
pouring of
the rain.

we both have broken hearts
we both have shattered souls
we both have broken dreams

were lost in thid world
we know we dont belong
we wonder why we were born

we cry ourselves to sleep one last time
we both know what to do
we stand hand in hand on the bridge looking down

we look at eachother and smile as we take the jump
they cant hurt us now
were dead hand in hand at the bottom of the river.

Paradise begins
sparkling beyond this
earth's atmosphere
lighting up
spiritually invisible
flying cotton feelings
touching soft
emotions angelic

In divine tenderness
a celestial
body flies
without wings
loving into
the Heaven's
an outer worldly
special experience

Immortal soul
sings in
such beauty mates
transcending love
ethereal enters
taking over
the heart

Within the vastness
of deep space
glowing inside thoughts
thinking of
you golden
a treasure
in pure
angelic bliss

Daisies waving
in the sun
whispering delight
circling softly inside
magically dreamy
circle enchanting touches
romantic music rotates
from within
this universe

Rebirth of happiness
blooms in
rose petals
an eternity
of precious joy
captivating the mind

Held in
a ring
forever together
always as one
inside view
kissed by your
Heavenly beauty

They say what goes up
must come down
be it whatever
that may be

Only this planet
we know as earth
has that
capacity

So if its true
then when i pray
what goes up
must come down

So when a prayer
is S.O.S
or ever quiet
whispering

Or a petition
fervent and bold
answers will return
as does the rain

Just see the prayers
of faith arise
reaching the heart
of God

Like the dew ascending
up on the mountain side
so our thoughts
ascend on high

We were young and free spirited right from the start,
We looked into each others eyes and entered each others hearts
But her parents didn’t want it and made her pull away
She didn’t say that it was over but called me names to feel okay
So we went off dating others although I tried to reach out to her
And last year our hearts were broken which I didn’t want to occur
But now she is in love again and happy and she’s free
Her happiness is my happiness and that is the best present for me
