Beauty never touching the ground

Sun shining bright
Life feels alright
Leaves all green
Flowers in bloom
Colors bursting
Birds chirping away,
Hummingbirds dancing around
Making musical sounds
Butterflies floating in the sky
Leaving their dust behind
Bees buzzing around
Wings never touching the ground
Not a day to frown
Happy to look around
Such beauty never touching the ground.

It's Hot Hot Hot!

Soaked in sweat
My head feels like it has been boiled like an egg
I have diarrhea
I don't care any more about this job
It is supposed to be better than this
You have air conditioning for the managers
But they don't want to share it with the workers
I wonder how the sweat shops across the world are doing in this weather
If you work for one of these places you are at the mercy of mother nature
When it is not June, July, or August, you do ok
But this is the time when you are tested
How much crap can I put up with?
But still I am glad I make more than Vietnamese workers
Who only make 2.50 dollars a day

Smiling Tears.............

Skin as black as charcoal
Teeth as white as snow
You glanced in my direction
My smile was there to show
You stumbled on some words
You stopped and tried to share
How were you to know
That someone else would care
Ignorance was abound you said
In your present state of mind
As tears flowed from your eyes
How could I be so kind
I was kinda taken back
Not used to this reaction
Asked if she was ok
As she checked on her direction
Off she went up the street
As I contemplated my fate
Wiping tears from her eyes
The injustice I could relate ........

A gift from God

Such a beautiful daughter, you are to me
What a blessing, God gave to me.
The smile, on your face,
Shows your beauty , and your grace.
My daughter, you are forever, my shining star
Never, far from my heart,
will you ever be.
The love, you give makes me glow, with pride
Amanda, you were the most beautiful bride
I cried ,and cried
In my heart knew,
what a loving wife, you were soon to be
You have such beauty, and elegance
You are the definition of class
You make me proud, and honored,
To, have raised such a loving, caring, giving, and selfless daughter
You forever will be my best friend, my, pride, and my joy,
When I look into your eyes,
My heart cries
I have the most loving daughter.

Love, Mommy

The artist that drew the rain

You have seen life withering
And the beauty of nature
In your dreams
And your brush
Has always blessed
This bright burning.
Our silent dialogue
Has suddenly disappeared
Like happiness disappears
You've gone through the storm
Beyond the horizons of earthly concerns.

That morning, opening the window
I saw a picture
Maples, straightened freely
Rocking in the wind so easily
I have head music.
The summer fairy tale musicians
Have sent diamonds
Of their hearts tears.
To those who are not with us
Anymore

I know you’ve forgotten me
Artist, that drew the rain
You serve other angels now
And you will not call me to follow you.
The artist that drew the rain

MY LIFE

Sitting, waiting for the dawn to break
Blank my mind, for the days take

Turning yet another page in my year
I sit and calmly wait, and stare.

The suns rays I see just peeking
The heat of the day promised, leaking

How long should I sit in my peaceful state?
Before moving and joining my days fate

Life's daily adventure begins anew
So standing up, and right on que

I felt spots of rain upon my face
Laughing at this turn of pace

I run to get undercover
None of it was a bother

I take in my new day with relish
I vow nothing will make me perish

INNER SMILES....

Special moments in time, that bring a smile
Memories tucked away, in our private file
Giving a lift, to what was a normal day
Flooding thoughts, like warming sun rays

With people we love, memories are made
Over-time, initial presence can easily fade
Until triggered by action, visual or thought
Stirring mind files, special moments brought

Back into the moment, emotions can collide
With past and present, so we can again ride
A time when so happy, you stored it away
To pull back and remember, warming rays

Where Am I............

You’d reached a stage in your life were decisions were to be made
Ill friends that surround you
Were recieving invitations from the grave
You’d achieved a lot through brains and brawn
And decided to call it a day
Not to follow down a path
Without having the last word to say
So you buy a four by four already kitted out
And steer your lonely self into a direction
To enthuse your joyous shout
No more long night shifts
Of seeing pain after pain
You’ve developed a toughness
But it’s journey is your gain
Off you go to see the land
All five foot two of you
Explore horizons that command
An unselfish point of view
Seek the streams valleys and forests
And all the beaches too
So you may cleanse your very soul
Too refresh it brand new
Wake up to new dawn
Everywhere you go
Strike a yarn with the locals
To know what seeds to sew
Commit yourself fully
To a dream from long ago
So you may have truly lived
The life you needed to know.....

FRIENDS.....

A day when grey skies and rain doesn't matter
Your inner sun, and friends warming chatter
Lift your spirts, making you smile and chuckle
Nothing upsets you, in a busy timetable juggle

On other days, you may have fought back tears
Yet these special days, the outcome is clear
Attitude and confidence, will win through
You feel blessed, and that is the only clue

These days so special, teach us to smile
Learning to remember, and retain on file
Tucked away deep, in our emotional core
Memories kept safe, until needed once more

I had one of these special days, last week
Friendship surrounded me, feelings so deep
That will warm me on chilly times in life
When we fight to overcome, what we call strife

a title by any other name

stands the chance of opposition
and uh being created of thin air
but when darkness shrieks down the hallway at ya
and calls you a living punk well
you better believe I noted the sideways mark on your face
before YOU ran away screaming
they say scents trigger memories like nothing else
oh the tiny rooms full of cat shit
and rotten food and rotted souls
and claiming desperate waterfalls
and banging holds and calls
let's wander the street alone shall we?
an approximate pun is to look at a gun in your face saying get h*rny
I had to think of someone else
I had to imagine waterfalls and grievances that forgot their own name and revived a pretty nature's lame to tying up.
reversed I was used and dried up and love is a curse and not real, what was right f*cking there was not real you say, but good enough to be wasted along with my mind
