Forbidden Dream
In the corners of your mind
And the core of your design,
In the pout of your lips
And the sway of your hips,
You are a forbidden dream-
You are not what you seem.

“Two Old Men”
Two old men chuckled
As they readied their sleds
For a speedy downhill venture
Bodies flat. . . face down
Off they flew
Like two boys
Sleighing . . . more

You dont have to ask god, he knows your heart.
When your life is torn and every road seems dark.
You dont have to ask god, to take away your fears.
He will sheild you from harm, he will dry your tears. . . . more

Where art thou o man of valor?
Why slumber thou when the majorities fall?
The battle’s not yet ended,
Renew thy strength, be bold, and release your fervor!
Thy sword is rusty and dull, . . . more

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.

but generally not out of fear.
just like tears . . . more

Anyhow, he lived, somehow
Her guilt drove . . . more

The Unanswered Question
I asked you a question--
Didn't you see?
Did you skim right over it?
Did you fail to see?
Or did you ignore me?
Decide not to respond?
Was I out of line asking?

Alone in the night,
Away from those who right now doze,
Now it is finally alright
To ponder poetry or prose;
Now, I am allowed to think,
To spend a little time on me;
I've no sleepy eyes, not e'en . . . more

He was so cool and very calculated
With a warm embracing tone
And a stunning dexterity
This sax player at the Green door.
Had a brisk tempo to match his play.
Softly but vigorously blowing his sax . . . 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

Upon a hilly-ridge I sat...
The Sun called out to me...
"Let me warm you, What do you see?"
I replied...so many beautiful things are free...
The air I breathe...sweet-snowy taste
Snowflakes . . . more

Looking over the city
The lights winked in the distance.
We sat on the hood of his car.
I don't even remember what model,
But I remember . . .
I shivered;
He put his jacket . . . more

The wind blew softly through the south sea
The light of the purple sunset as you have placed in me
What it means to have you in my life.

How shall I begin? Where would I end ?
Many tribulations I thought I would not survive.
Yet, I still breathe and stronger for the breaking. But now...here...a mountain so high...

Once found, a lost item to the loser of it,
Is like finding a treasure in a sunken ship
Deep within the bowels of the sea;
Unscathed by water’s elements, its floor and time,
The item reminds . . . more

where we last were we,
before the searing darkness
of dead stars burned
these holes in my heart –
before the sadness of trees
in the middle days of . . . 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
