A Good Day To Be Honest
My heart is filled with fears,
My eyes, they are full of tears.
I miss you so much that every part of my body aches.
You will never know for you I kept myself at stake.
I can't stop myself from loving you,
I can't tell myself not to think about you.
Yet you seem so nonchalant about it,
In your life

Still Beguile
On waking to the strongest gale
Bedraggled sunflowers still beguile
August storms of wind and hail
Will ne’er destroy my sunflowers smile

A Beguile Ladder
I was soaring high and still higher up
climbing the ladder of love
I wished I could stay forever at the top.
sleepwalking uphill beyond control,
in a dream that was no longer mine
I was in a world, where each day was Valentine.
With your hand to hold, with your lips to kiss, .
shoulders of trust, I

The Merchant Beguile
the merchant beguile
sat not sanded, miracle mile
what went where whence
was their way, around the fence
in American fen
gators and crossbow
sickened accosted
absolutely aware
awed without care
float and flutter
your way through this life
see me clear
back to my wife

Ever Beguile
Ever Beguile
None of you will I ever beguile
Could not find it to be my style
About a person was insinuated
Poor behavior so we have hated.
Was even read in current news
About how others he will abuse
And always take advantage of
When what we need is much love.
Misrepresent those with handicap
Between each ear represent gap
Lack of knowledge or any

Oh, Waters Beguile
Impermeable waters thrill the air
To invigorate tiptoes everywhere,
Dizzy where moist grasses and blooms unfurl
As herons pirouette through a curved swirl,
Where mist, in full hydration, reels a while
Its tangy perfume …the senses beguile!
As crystallization forms like soft ice
From mild gushes, flowing tendrils baptize
The requisite weave of crests, its tidal intent
Where islet’s limbs end a
