Thank you for reminding me,
Of my blessings.
Thank you for stopping,
My flow of complaints.
...
No one speaks for me.
No dummy am I,
On a ventriloquist knee.
If you wish to know
...
Think of my words as a salad.
Sometimes it may nourish...
And sometimes it's not wanted,
Or thought to be valid.
...
Within my heart I love you deeply,
Without pretense or secrets kept!
There is no wait to spark my fire.
None other but you heat my desires best.
...
Say it and be basic.
Let it be shown...
What may be unknown.
Showing up to appear,
...
There are those who profess,
They know better than others
About cleanliness!
...
And those who say they knew him,
Did not know him from within.
They knew of his accomplishments...
And some with him embellished them.
...
You will not find the answers in books.
Or researching through archives,
For clues to undo subdued remorse.
Nothing found printed,
...
As I age in times ageless,
With those afraid to leave their youth!
I find myself discovering a wealth,
Of understanding I am handed and pursue.
...
