This is a poem I wrote a while back.
Time
Every second is precious
Yet it goes on for eternity.
You hold on to the moment,
But the hours pass you by.
It's callous hands strip away
All that you hold . . . more

Voices joined
Whirl in my head
Pain abounds
Flowing in the wind
No joy here
Chaos in its stead
Close my eyes
Feel darkness
Closing . . . more

(I'm republishing some of my old poems)

Unicorns lived and the world loved everything
My dreams never came to pass
And the unicorns . . . more

you'd be something to miss
Stored Away,

The memory of one perfect kiss
The deliciousness of young love
floods my brain
Rain washes over . . . more

My only child is 17 and a half today.
Turn back the clock, is there any way?
"6 months til I'm legal ma!" What can I say.
She wants to grow up so fast, the gaul! . . . more

When and where we are conceived, only time knows
If we'll make it to this earth, only time knows
Where we come from, only time knows
The major events that'll shape our lives
And make us . . . more

Standing, cloaked in darkness
I wait to hear the bell
My bride lies sleeping
Inside a humid hell

I can feel the Earth move
Blackness glowing with stars
Swirling just out of reach
It doesn't seem real
What is the reason?

with her love and affection.
She has a way of making you want to give her
all that's beautiful in the world,
because her hugs are the sweetest . . . more

Lies ‘neath the sand
Within this barren desert
I made my final stand
No one witnessed

Entwined souls forever bound
Floating rain of rice

The wind blows my dreams
To all corners of my mind
Floating free
Tormenting me
Holding me back from all that could be
You're there
Calling to me . . . more

The memory of that day, a rip in time
I should have walked away
Run toward the sublime
Looking toward the purple sky, I hoped for a sign
Nothing but diamonds . . . more

Now I lay down to sleep
But, I can't...so
With me, a book I read
I try to take away the pain
to forget about you
and when you ripped my life away
I am having trouble breathing . . . more

my mom lied on her back
you said you weren't my father
and was never coming back
I was happy
maybe mom had
at least ONE good time
If what you said . . . more

The wind blows across my cheek, gently caressing trees into awakening
Azure blue floats above us, swirling white . . . more

To a Rose
Oh Rose as bright as yonder sun,
Which lights the world’s life never done,
And shows to me thy radiance true,
When shown reflected off of you.

hear it calling to you in the night
to fill your heart with pure delight
a sweet song of joy sent from above.
Let me take you in my arms tonight
hold you close . . . more
