And lingering in ornament memories
A snowman I made
Back in 2nd grade
Reminds me of childhood glee and snow dreams

The silence of a falling star,

Summer nights so sweet,

before childhood was complete.

A DREAM

A childhood dream 
A memory from the past
A life that I wish could have last
A time forgotten 
An era wasted
A chance missed
A dying moment
A love lost

You're the one that I want

Drunkenmess is like the turning tables of your childhood that you conviently forgot was good.
Regretably misbehave
you dig your own social grave.
and forgivness is only waiting from God.

Rebirth

A second childhood

I was given

That bloomed with

love and grace

The darkness of the 

past forgiven

in the love of 

God's embrace.

Mother

A schoolroom
of my childhood
my mother's heart

 My shy adolescence
her tender warmth
purified

My present success
her new pride
glorified
