With a flickering candle,
she walks the streets alone
looking for her lover
who failed to come home.

Yesterday when I was young,
the world was not complicated.
No worries hovered above my head
only a sky of blue and the sun.

For my friend Andrew Mark Wilkinson
To Andy, I call him a friend,
but some friend I seem to be,

They say to celebrate
you should raise a glass or two,
but if you do not drink
that is something hard to do.

Sometimes we do things
hoping to succeed
only to impress someone
to make them like us more,
...
In everyone’s life, we go through times
when it seems full with turbulence
and the negative feelings take hold.
Sometimes they don’t last long,
...
In life, we travel many roads,
some with a point of no return.
We seek to find our dreams
stashed away in a cul-de-sac,
...
Moving close to loves embrace,
bodies swirl in passion
to the sensual sounds
of hearts beating as one.
...
The world was not created
for just man alone.
It was created to give
all living things a home.
...
The clouds were in line,
like stepping-stones from the horizon,
painted pink and grey
from the setting sun
