Patience
Sheet on table
still sitting there
waiting for years
until finally
the right word
in the writer’s mind appears.

Grandfather’s Words 2
Be yourself
and no one else.
Changing to fit another;
will only tear you asunder.
Be who you are
unconditionally.
Set yourself free.
Don’t give up on yourself
then you will be happy.

In the Station 3
Huddled in corner
watching people go by
when he plays music
people gather ’round
smile
admiring his talent
yet wondering how he ended up there
give him money
to show he is worthwhile
with the hope
he’ll get off the street
and back on his feet.

Winter’s Break
Birds chirping away
flowers blooming
every which way
it is quite warm today
it seems as if winter
has gone away
more likely it has taken a short holiday.

Sleep snorkeled face
takes a place
scaring the mirror.

Poem Feb 16th 2015

Ode to Persistence
Quitting will never do
If you want to be you
whatever may come your way
you keep working for the day
when you can say
I did it
I got through
You believed
in yourself
Then you can say
What’s next?

Poem Feb 15th 2015

Words
Can cocoon and mislead.
Harm those yet unborn;
cover our world
in hatred’s storm.

Words can
fuel love and wondrous deeds
that will be told for generations to come
they are the seeds
inspiring others to do the same
to bring our world back
from its destructive track.

May all our words
inspire others in a good way
so one day
they can say
we helped to spark their flame
to build a better world again.

Crave’s Waves

Inner Battle 2
Away
from some place
I did not want to leave
my soul bleeds
struggling to stay whole
to fight the sadness in my soul.

Encounter with the Rabbits 2
As I recite my preamble
the rabbits play
under the moon
they have no fear
cause they saw me here
whilst playing with the dog before
they listen for a bit
deciding enough of this
rambling away in search of food and fun.
