If I walked
through burning sand
and rocky stone
barefoot and alone -
If I walked
through icy tundra
and winter storm
naked as my birth -
If I walked
through my pain
and did . . . more

Restless, pacing, measuring out
concrete boundaries
that strain the seams of mortal peace.
Electric storms rage
within cranial confines,

tears roll down the cheek
when the grief at it's peak.
one tend to smile at the grief
but sometimes it's not so brief.
smile is also like tears
but generally not out of fear.
just like tears . . . more

Heavenly Host appeared in the sky...
Prayers were sent above in angels-hands-up high
Before the throne of glory...rest
Prayers sent from all digress...exalt with tears addressed

I remember my eyes tightly closed for
washcloth scrubbings with zest bar soap
the tone of my mother's voice while she worked
trying to erase stained pokeberry
war paint.

The bench sits alone.
The young lovers who met there
have aged,
trading in park time for porch-sitting.
The bench remembers
how they used to come walking,
hand-in-hand out of the woods,
each step light . . . more

Life is what we make of it
No matter what someone says or does.
Life doesn't stop moving on.
We make our choices good and bad.
Life doesn't let us go back.
We have to learn from the mistakes . . . more

A sincere tribute to all my past years
Dreams...
They gave me expectations;
Expectations...
They led me forward.
Experiences...
They gave me wisdom;
Wisdom...

Many tribulations I thought I would not survive.
Yet, I still breathe and stronger for the breaking. But now...here...a mountain so high...
its peak soars . . . more

See the fire burning night
to ward off chill on Christmas night.
No fireplace for those gathered here
smelling of rum and cheap-made beer.
Smell of pine fills the chilly air
as it . . . more

Time lurks like an evil thief
Stealing every minute
It takes your past
Your future
And every second in it.
Is there a away to elude
This thief?
It’s there when you’re asleep . . . more

The landscape looms
With some contrast
No hues of blue
For ocean and sky
No use for color
In a world so defined
No unneccesary distractions
No creative juices flow
Right side atrophy
Shrivels . . . more

True love is all about ups and downs,
Where two hearts are one, true love abounds.
Still, where two hearts are truely one twine,
Ups and downs do often give a shine,
About who is wrong . . . more

Whistling sounds howl through the night,
Bundled children hide from sight!
Glass panes rattle, shake from gales,
A wintry mix whips water and hail,
Pounds the roof, gulps snow, exhales!

shades of gray
playing through your head
stuck in a loop
like a record with a scratch
never knowing what the next day brings
never knowing
if your troubled past
will seem mild
in comparison
to a tortured . . . more

These poems are from the pages of my first book-
The Journey~Lost and Confused

Standing on the edge of time
Pondering another rhyme
Everyday that’s what I do
I write another poem . . . more

Relative
How relative is the time that we measure
Or material items we all tend to treasure
Just how important are things we each cherish
When the day comes that we die and parish
Is your conscious clear . . . more
