MY IMPERFECTIONS

Are they many, are they few?
Should I make them known to you?
Would you care, if I did share
The things that make me imperfect;
The flaws I’d prefer to keep secret.

Some are what make me, be me;
That make me think the way I do.
That cause me to do the things I do,
And seem different from someone who
Also has flaws... as I’m sure you do.

Are you willing to accept my imperfections,
Or are they too many for you to care?
I don’t want to hide any longer.
But, regardless of my good intentions,
They may always affect the way I appear.

Who do you love

There's a moon abandoned in the eastern sky
down in the meadow they're drinking rye
strangers deep in a foreign land
shelter now in the shifting sand

The juju man carries sticks and stones
the women hum in murderous tones
I saw the one eyed man with purple gaze
call the wind to rise at the end of days

Who do you love
I said who do you love
Who do you love

The sun sank deep in the western sky
the boats upon the water ply
worry not this station's manned
singing songs of an ancient band

The mystic casts his tiny runes
in the caverns of the mighty dunes
you have to pray for pleasant days
time and time it slips aways

Who do you love
I said who do you love
Who do you love

Game Of Death

A game of death - Hey, I am good for!,
Just tell me where to play?,
Well, I finally got my invite!,
On a cold winter day, -
In my mind demons were warring,
Has my Angel, she started to lose feathers from her wings,
Begging me to hold on!,
"This is not ah, The DiggableHippy's thing!" --

So, I sold my soul that night,
Just so, I could go ahead and die,
The deal was fairly simple,
I won't have to live another life, -
The figures in the shadows,
I saw, one of them smile!,
I could hear the wind outside my head,
Blowing a thousand miles! --

Game of death (x2)

I looked down at my body,
After a convulsive rage,
I saw a light outside my door,
That slammed in my face!, -
At this point nothing happened,
Just felt a little cold,
Until I suddenly realized,
My soul had turn to stone!, --

My Angel that warned me,
Was looking into my eyes,
She said, "I can simply free you!",
"But you know there is a price?!", -
"A Game of Death you wanted",
"Your soul is up for grabs!",
"If you want your freedom?",
"Serve me a fallen Angels head!?", --

Game of death (x2)

I found myself alone,
Walking a crooked path,
A shadow flew above me!,
Then I heard a wicked laugh!, -
Shades of light grew darker,
Until I could barely see!,
But I knew if it could make a sound....,
It could surely bleed, --

The shadow withdrew it's sword,
That slashed into my head!,
But that cut was into a side of me,
That has long been dead!, -
Well, I picked up the shadow's blade,
Before it could be retrieved!,
I struck one hard blow!,
That brought it to it's knees!, --

Game of death (x2)

From the darkness before me,
I was blinded from the light,
Just to see a burning Angel,
Dancing with delight!, -
"Which one was your enemy?",
"You just couldn't tell?",
"And with the head of the Angel losing her wings from above!",
"You have a special place in Hell! lol" , --

Before I could say anything!,
Electric shock brought me back to life,
From the f*cking rescue team,
That responded from my ex-wife, -
In pain, here I go again!,
Never shall I rest!,
Has I wait patiently,
For another Game Of Death!, --

Game of death (x2)

Chasing after LOVE

Fill your days with love pursuits,
Let them saturate your thoughts.
Learn the languages of love, and share
That part of you that longs for it too.

Whether the chase be led by you or
Whether the chase be led to you,
Love must be pursued.
After you’ve found your love that’s true or
After they’ve found their love, that’s you,
Your life will feel renewed.

Don’t chase love away; you may not get
Another chance to have it in your life.
Learn to cherish those who brought in it,
A lover or a friend, a husband or a wife.

Nothing ventured, nothing gained.
So chase after love… unrestrained.
Let no one tell you that it can’t be found,
For its very presence makes joy abound.

















"Chasing after YOU"

I’m happiest when…

I’m happiest when…
I realize that you are real;
And though you know the care I feel
But cannot yet plainly reveal,
You still love me.

I’m happiest when…
There are no restraints on time;
All worry has gone from my mind,
And I have that ‘one-of-a-kind’
Experience.

I’m happiest when…
Nothing can dampen my mood;
Make me forget what is good
About what could, or should be
My Life.

I’m happiest when…
My hopes have been fulfilled,
And I feel as though I’ve lived
The day that was granted to me,
With purpose.

I’m happiest when...“all the stars align”. :-)

I HAVE A FRIEND (an original poem from a book of Inspiration that I published in 2016)

“A friend loves at all times.” (Proverbs 17:17)
“…But there is a friend who sticks closer than a brother.” (Proverbs 18:24)

I lost my friend; piece of me died.
I lost a friend; I cried and cried.
But in the end I wondered if
He was a friend at all.

I lost my friend; I’m not sure why.
I lost a friend; it made me cry.
To save the friend ship I did try,
But she won’t even call.

I found a friend; and He found me.
I have a friend, and now I’m free
To have someone who cares for me;
Who answers when I call.

Some friendships are very valuable (for at least one of the parties involved),so when things go awry there may be a separation that causes distress.

My Sweetie Pie.

She glares at me with warm brown eyes;
Her posture, firm and unyielding.
I glance from my laptop to her face,
And she sighs, impatiently…still waiting.

I think I know what she wants;
But is it time? No, not yet.
I glance upward at my clock.
So what does she want me to get?

She changes her posture and lays down on the bed;
She rests a front paw on my wrist.
She’s annoyed with me now and makes a low growl,
In hopes that I’ll get the gist.

I’m not very good at reading dog signs,
So I have to guess at her need.
It’s either she’s bored and wants to play catch,
Or maybe it’s time for her feed.

How would I live without her in my life;
And how did I manage before?
She lights up my days and keeps me in tune,
She’s my life-saver for sure.

Few things I have with me can give my life joy,
Like the joy she inspires in me.
Sweetie’s well-named; she’s a ‘sweet-tempered’ soul,
And a gift that keeps giving sweetly.

About this poem:
My sister and ex-sister-in-law often say that my dog, Sweetie Pie, behaves much like a real person. They describe as being “a whole human”. She amazes us.

SHE

She -
Strong and Beautiful,
Intelligent and Wise,
Hardworking and Ambitious,
Faithful and Honest,
Fierce and Devoted.

She -
Protected her loved ones in battle,
Fought for what's right, til the end.
Showed hers the value of 'struggle',
Knew that Her God would defend.

She -
Hasn't left much wealth behind,
Except the investments that matter.
Built with her legacy in mind,
Five kids - three sons and two daughters.

And now... She. is. no. more.

Weeding In The Garden

I am happy just kneeling here
On this warm bare ground
Scrunched down on my knees
Pulling weeds all around

No one comes to bother me
Nor do they interrupt my task
Not even a busy wandering bee
Looking for directions might ask

Other people leave me alone
A little wave -- a passing smile
Not even a ringing phone
Can be heard for a country mile

I shall stay ’til work is done
Or 'til the dinner bells echo
Waiting for the setting sun
Changes into reds from yellow

I am happy just kneeling here
On this warm bare ground
Scrunched down on my knees
Pulling weeds all around

About this poem:
The lovely task of pulling weeds and just enjoying solitude. Nobody will bother you or try and take your job away. It is blessedly peaceful and mindfulness all wrapped in one.

Fear vs Faith

"Be strong, do not fear!" (Isaiah 35:4);
"For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind!" (2 Timothy 1:7).


Fear says to us:
You're not going to make it;
You're not good enough.
The road that you're on
Is gonna be tough.
The race that you face
Is not one you'll win,
So don't even try to
Get rid of your sin.

But...
Faith says to us:
Your victory is won;
Jesus died in your place.
The road that you're on
Will be guided by Grace.
The race that you're in
Isn't for you to win;
It's a victory lap that proves
That you've overcome Sin.
