Bumbles CradleBumble, the baby bee had the best cradle of all
It was carved out of a walnut by his Grandpa Paul
It rocked in the wind, gave a gentle little sway
Bumble slept inside it cozily, snoring away...

Light and DarknessLight and Darkness
Have you ever paused to ponder
Why the creator in his wisdom
Made death the only doorway
Leading to the Heavenly Kingdom?
Have you ever paused to ponder
Why the creator by his order
Separated the endless darkness
To give the world twelve hours of light
And twelve hours of dreadful night?
Don't you know He could make it all light?
You could...

NOW THAT WE ARE AWAKENOW THAT WE ARE AWAKE
Now that we awake –
We had all the long while
Been in deep dreamless slumber
And while we were still
Still slumbering in our
Unreal bed of red roses
They planned, practised and projected
What “tomorrow” would likely bring
Now that we have realized with pain
That the “tomorrow” we failed to plan for
Has changed herself to...

Humiliated by a Trollgnarly snarly wharly harly barley troll
when we use his path, he demands a toll
When we protest, he hangs us upside down
The villagers come by and call us clown
gnarly snarly wharly harly barley troll
Humiliating us kids is his ultimate goal
He is good at it, an expert in fact; I know.
He has hung me twice by my...

Catching Constellations Like FirefliesIf I could
catch the stars
in a mason jar would
it be enough to
prove myself?
I
don't
want
to
be
here
anymore.
I want to be up in space
where all of the fireflies reside.
They
don't
care
if
I'm
not
good
enough.

I joined the circus.
I was always a clown,
and you were always
so serious.

Circus SquealsI am a circus freak—
collar popped,
polka dots.
You throw apples
and boo;
I hate all of
you too.
I’m not bothered,
though.
One day, I’ll
start a revolution
and set fire to this
whole place.
You see me as a freak;
I see myself as one of
you elites—
three-piece suit,
walking cane.
I’m going to
dismantle
the aristocracy
internally.
Join the cause
or die.

Among the earth,
Among the sand,
Among the dirt,
Among the sleet,
Among the snow—
Rests impermanence,
our only home.

DON'T TELL ME I WILL DIEDon't tell me I will die
For I know I will die
Why tell the bird it will fly?
Why tell the neonate it will cry?
Nature designed these things to be
And I need no third eye to see
And know that they’re meant to be
But you stretch your staff to the sky
And tell me that my people will cry
Because...

Elegy of the Shattered MirrorIn halls where silence once held sway,
A storm did breach the calm of day.
A voice, unbidden, harsh and cold,
Unfurled its tale, its judgment bold.
It spoke of faults unseen, unfound,
Its echoes spread, a bitter sound.
No evidence to back its claim,
Yet still it sought to tarnish name.
The mirror cracked, its truth betrayed,
By words that in the shadows...

my dragon tiddly widdly willie little winkie weeTiddly Widdly Willie Little Winkie Wee
Was ever so lovely and kind to little old me
I met him when I was living next to the sea
I think we were two, but we might have been three
Tiddly Widdly Willie Little Winkie Wee
was a lopsided dragon with a golden eye you see
My best friend forever, I nicknamed him...
