Picturesque SandsAlways hop on a chance to jet-set,
travel as far and as often as you can.
I never want to have postcard regret.
Stay mindful you don't need a plan,
This is not always the easiest task.
Spontaneous adventures? I'm a fan.
Wearing a sunscreen lotion's mask
I'm ready to indulge in far off lands.
Under foreign sunshine I long...

WALKINGLY I ON HOLY STREETS OF GOLD-WALKINGLY I ON HOLY STREETS OF GOLD
Triumphantly gathering
Amongst fellow visitors
Returning home leaving
Our shoes and sandals
At the door on my vacation spot
Earth passing through now
back home walking on Holy Grounds
Embracing my Father the soles of my feet
The soul of my vessel sweet
I bow down to greet praise worthy at His feet
Walkingly I...

Not my KnightI prayed for love. I prayed blindly. I wished on every star that my perfect person would find me. I blew every dandelion reinforcing my prayers, that I will find someone one day, who genuinely loves and cares. I never specified the appearance of the person of dreams. I never thought a shooting...

Those nights had in the sun
The city held its hand out to you and you felt like you’d become.
The flashing lights, drinking and dancing nights is where your adulthood had begun.
The wayward walk and drunken fights where no logic had ever won.
Pride or is it sorrow now fills your mind, to see what you’ve become.
The years fly by and your...

Please keep on singing
Tie me like Ulysses,
I don’t want
run to death
hearing those songs!
Bind me Lord!
But you keep on singing!
The sins are not yours
for the shores I crave
or the eyes I seek
or the thrills of my restless soul!
I beg you to keep on singing.

GLOBAL EXPLORATIONPack your bags
We are off to the airport
Our Flight #212 was called
Our plane is running down the runway
Into the friendly skies
European places
Just you, me and anyone else who wants to join
Enriched goodness and elegance

Reflecting back enjoying the laid back
Relaxed setting

A HappenstanceOnce upon a happenstance,
she fell into a swift trance.
This view felt ordinary,
that was what made it scary.
Every flower was in bloom,
still you should never assume.
Spots of energy raging,
can you feel what it’s staging?
With that sweet breath of magic,
nothing here could be tragic.
Timeless beauty’s engaging,
the Fey have be-spelled aging.
A wand touching...

The Mystery Of DestinyDestiny, oh destiny, why hide thyself from me.
Come out, come out, for all to see.
A life filled with struggle, then at last a surprise.
Why not reveal now how I self-actualize?
Have I no choice of my destination,
How I’ll proceed in my maturation?
How many ways could there be?
Or outcomes to this mystery?
More than one, surely a few,
Leave...

MY ROCHDALE MEMOIRI moved into Rochdale in 1964
My Grandparents and I moved in together
We will not be discussing our ages
Just Rochdale and its amazes
History with a continued stride
As a start off, I who can forget the ROCHDALE MOVIE THEATER
On any given Saturday, it would be a sit down and watch movie flicks
James Bond 007 and Ten Little...
