The sun warms me
lighting the beauty all around
It's golden glory
Paints flowers of every shade and hue
...
Spring rain wets the earth
bringing smells of things long dead
and new life to come
...
A society of voyeurs
Pretend warriors
Living through another persons life
with the safety of a proxy
...
Truths spill through the mouths of the mentally ill
To amend their political incorrectness we give them a pill
The entrance to heaven is through hell's door
If one wishes to be rich one must first be poor.
...
Like two trees planted together
For fifty years side by side
Leaning on each other in foul or fair weather
Together grown and now abide
...
Selfish? I never sold a fish in my life
Of course I'm self centered, if I wasn't I'd be off balance
And if I wasn't head strong, I'd be weak minded
You say I'm into myself, if I wasn't I'd be out of my mind
...
We are all enslaved from birth to the grave
Life is a cruel master
Of all that we make nothing we can take
To where we go hereafter
...
A stem bent with dew
kisses the lowest of all
but springs back anew
...
Love comes in a whisper,
in a shout,
in the flash of fireworks,
in the slow building of layers of sediment
...
