ON MY MOTHER’S PASSING

i wanted to keep my mother physically with me
but it would be like trying to hold the sun
like in life she still shines brighter than any star
is as gentle as the finest breeze 

she isn't gone my mother is infinite
hers was a metamorphosis 
like the butterfly represents eternal beauty
flies to heights unimaginable to the human mind
butterflies are free and so is she
she was a wife a mother a sister a friend
she was the best of all those roles 
she was because she chose to be
but she was then she is now she will always be free
such was her nature 
we all knew her as that special person could embrace your heart
we also knew she was all but she was one
you can't own that kind of beauty
and her shine filled you with a euphoric joy

she was she is like the moon
the one belongs to children 
belongs to love at its very core
love she spreads across the universe 
my mother was is will always be as large as unconditional love
i share this story with you in order to comfort you
her influence is immense 
she is now looking after us all
be happy, be confident be at peace
my mother is with us all
and my mother is love

An Added Bonus (My Parents Always Enjoyed My Imagination
For Both Of Them I include This Piece)

DISGUISED IDIOMS & EVERYTHING  “JAZZ”

for you

i’d lay down the red and plush
give you the shirt I’m wearing
walk a mile and then one more
hand you the key to my beet red beat
commit all my eggs to your stash
throw in nine yards the whole of it 
tell you with no shame “i’m at your beck...just call”
no need to do mine turn around I’ll scratch yours
i’m yours all my parts even a parcel
all of it ‘till the cattle arrive’

Armand ‘aren’t you the clever boy’ Yvonne

Another piece if your in the mood. If not off you go then.

 BENEATH THE WHINING

scaled the walls 
every time nothing
nothing on the other side

found the doors
their locks
never the keys

paid my dues
never got a receipt 

every time i fell
got back up
followed the light
always took the noble path

stepped barefoot 
on jagged rocks
autographed the stones in blood -mine

from great heights
lost my hold
landed on my feet

regret occupies 
the larger part of my thoughts
sometimes i cried 
even yelled my infamous screams

my life it turns out
was blessed

having accomplished none of my goals
i lived an existence 
i alone could appreciate 

underneath the layers 
of self inflicted scars
i found a me
i loved and respected 

i need nothing more

I UNDERSTAND THE DIFFERENCE. 
RECOGNIZE ONE FROM THE OTHER.



while the evil mind trods awkwardly 
wears swamp covered boots
destroys indiscriminately 
inner beauty dances in partnership 
a benevolent synchronized waltz

minds adorned 
in a growing blue green moss
nurture strong thick deep roots 

transfer nutrients 
lovingly to the breathing heart

their silent strength 
in turn 
energizes a body of good 

spread like lavender scented clover
over a barren land

flow like oxygen 
cleanses polluted waterways worldwide 

calms 
the unsteady unpredictable weather patterns of recent times

a new is born 

and 

not a life 

animal 
vegetable 
human 

not any life  

harmed

such is the outcome 

the collective power

of inner beauty

 FOR YOU MY LOVE 

a human heart beats over a hundred thousand times a day
the first one hundred thousand every day beat for you

A SIMPLE SUGGESTION 

I know my heart is made of butter
but you can only spread it so thin

DISNEY WOULD BE PROUD


a blue tree
covered in spaghetti 
branches drenched
in a sauce of leaves
with no desire to be served up
in an Italian restaurant
where a lady or a tramp
or both
might end up in a passionate kiss
with an orchestra 
providing the background ambiance

no,
this navy colored tree
is too busy chumming around
with the sky and the odd passing cloud

thinking back
when it was just an acorn
now the tallest
the most majestic
growth in the forest

still 
never forgetting its roots
once just a single seed
humbled by its origin
dearly loved
by the Earth
no, more -by the universe

comfortable
in its greatness

happy as just one piece
of something much greater

a gentle giant
at peace with its existence

wait,
was that Bambi and Thumper
just ran by it

the giant smiles

 ONE CENT ALLEY 


drove us to a magical mystery go see
“there's nothing you can do...it's easy
all you need is love”
so we latched on to a mustard coloured submarine
"something in the way..."
walked down a british road
"and in the end, the love you take is equal to the love you make"

 A PROPOSAL 

a sheet of paper     printed
slats of wood     measured
extra thick rope     strong
large fat nails     steel
a set of tools     exact
a driven will     instinctive 
and there you have it a bridge
perhaps we can meet in the middle
