Clouds

IF I COULD TRICK LORD GRAVITY

  TO LET GO OF MY FEET...

I'D FLY INTO THE TROPOSPHERE,

  WHERE CUMULUS CLOUDS RETREAT...

 

TO FORM THEIR GREAT ILLUISIONS

   TO ENTERTAIN MANKIND...

A GIFT THEY'VE GIVEN ALL OF US,

   HENCE THE BIRTH OF TIME...

 

FOR THERE'S NO ONE WHO'S PONDERED NOT,

   THE SHAPE THESE CLOUD PROJECT...

IS THAT A HORSE OR UNICORN

   OR SOMETHING ELSE?, AND YET...

 

IT MATTERS NOT WHAT YOU MAY SEE,

   IT'S ALL INTERPRETATION...

APPRECIATE THIS PRECIOUS GIFT,

   AND REVEL, IN ITS CREATION

Mother Ocean

As I ride on her rolling back,
  Her pitch it sings to me...

She rocks me like my mothers arms,
  And whispers tenderly....


Come see what yet has not been seen,
  Come see the world anew...

Come find yourself, that inner peace,
  That dwell the depth of you....


And I will smooth your weathered brow,
  And put your all at ease...

For we shall sail until the end,
  Of every endless sea....

Time

Oh precious time, where have you gone,why constant is your flow.............

You swallow us up and draw us on, to where we fear to go...............


You whisper the possibilities, you engulf us in your chants...............

You make us believe we can do the don't and attempt to can the can't...........


We stumble and fall, but you beckon  to us to rise and to venture on............

We race to the end of our own life time, then with a KISS,,,, you leave us ALONE........


We clasp on the you with such desparation, we who have come from the dust...........

We are fools for out thrive for we not let you go,,,,it is YOU, who lets go of us............

Death In Heaven

There is no death in Heaven,
   no sorrows, no fears...
No worries about losing,
   someone who is near...

No endless reels of "Should haves",
   or placing all the blame...
No silly "He said-She said",
   these endless lying games...

No fretting 'bout tomorrow,
   and what is going to be...
Your 'Final Destination',
   has come to set you free...

Regrets are all forgotten,
   they vanish in the night...
For you are now protected,
   by His enduring light...

So do not shudder so my child,
   you've earned your final rest...
And worry not 'bout "Judgment Day",
   He knows you've done your best...

Decisions

Decisions make us what we are,
   Be sure to make them wise...

For we cannot deceive ourselves,
   Through promises or lies...

My Savior

MY SAVIOR

LOST UPON THE WATER, DARKNESS ALL AROUND,
    LONEINESS AND EMPTINESS, IS ALL I'VE EVER FOUND...

THEN THERE CAME A GLIMMER FROM YOU CLEAR BLUE EYES.
    LIFTING ME FROM WHERE I COULD NEVER RISE...

YOU BOUND ME IN YOUR ARMS AND KISSED AWAY MY TEARS,
    WHISPERED SOFT OF PARIDISE, LOVE WITHOUT THE FEARS....

A BOND THAT CAN'T BE BROKEN, WE MAKE THE PERFECT BLEND,
    I FOUND IN YOU MY EVERYTHING, MY LIFE, MY LOVE,MY FRIEND......

Words

If all words were considered,
   before they were spoken....

Then no lies would be told,
   or promises broken.....
