Michael, My Brother
Your smile is like the moon all silver lined, I wanted to be by you, time after time. Your love for sports was quite unreal, But you never gave up that rid and reel. Your humour was loved, loved by us all, But your laugh was the best, best of it all. I watched when you became a man and you...

Time used to be gentle like bike bells on a summer breeze somewhere along the line time became an indifferent brute lacking any sympathy it is a taker=a grave maker whisking everything, you...

Premium Member Young and gullible
There are a lot of myths we have been told Like at the end of a rainbow there's a pot of gold. Things I was told turned out to be lies Like if you watch to much television you will get square eyes. If you eat the crust of the bread you will Get curly hair. Don't look to long at...

Choose to Live
Don't believe the lies that have been said, Do you truly think you're better off dead? Shake that thought out of your head, Let me tell you what is true, what is real, My friend, you should choose to live instead. Why do you meet the mornings with dread? Wake up, come on, rise from your bed, How about some breakfast so...

The Look In Loves Eyes
The day seems so right, then comes the dark night. Love brings happiness, and the loss sadness. Mothers raise their young, the rest left to Jung. The news sells the lies, for the lord of flies. The look in loves eyes, when grey turns blue skies. For life is the lure, and death... is the cure! ...

Premium Member EVE'S NAKED PLEA -CLOTH IN KNOWLEDGED-
She wore nothing but herself; Her crown was flowing radiant black; Electrifying was her mind sweet as roses; And she hears with ears of velvet clovers; And she sees with the eyes of a cat beams; And she's naked her vessel skin hue; Like a flowing water pouring down streams; Graced in beauty of visaged view; Carmel is her angles; She sings amidst the...

All Talk, No Action
They are now but cash cows (a trough in which to quaff) for the many attendees who sit on long-winded Government-funded investigation committees no one around to hear the sound (of what falls in the woods) while their coffers swelled for all the papers printed on the ecology more than several trees were felled the fracking drilling boring too (found underground) wastes water in copious quantities releases greenhouse...

The Things I Never Buried
I never buried certain names, They lingered like a scent in air. I whispered them through window panes And found them waiting everywhere. I never buried childhood roads— The ones I walked with bleeding knees. They live inside the softest odes And bloom like ghosts among the trees. I never buried what she said The night the silence broke our bed. Her voice still echoes...

Anything Goes
Perhaps he's crackers to embrace glitz (to paraphrase Irving Berlin) 'Putin on the Ritz' tho' 'Sometimes something is better than nothing' went the writing on the wall yet 'Too much of nothing' (wrote the Zimmerman) is really no good at all and 'Everything comes to those who wait' an optimist put in prose but Cole Porter said it best when he wrote, 'Anything Goes' ...

Everyday
Everyday My beautiful forever, where do I begin, Not having you in my life would be a sin. Every waking moment you’re on my mind, You my love, are truly one of a kind. For every morning when I wake, My very first thought is to send a text. Good morning dear I say to you, Days cannot start without a response from...

In the wilderness of bewilderment
In the wilderness of bewilderment, Sculpting different sorts of thoughts, Where intent fades, needing no interment, And truth exudes from all its rots. There lies the stark resolve for my future, A slender hope of life ahead, Bound together by a catgut suture, That time corrodes until it's shed. All kept away from prying eyes, Ever before my intent was conceived, Just to keep all...
