Life goes by in a flash is a
famous quote/ saying. The
longer I live on this earth 
I’ve found that quote/ saying 
to be true. This year 2020 
has made a believer  out of 
me. I’ve seen so many people 
pass away like never before.

Born into this World, clean in both heart and soul
Untarnished except for God’s pure hands
Sitting up by myself, consuming more and more
A language starting to form in my head
My cries in the day and night are for wanting
Crawling…next walking, familiar faces of those who love...

Doing the bare minimum, or max
Won't always be the first or last
Near and far from waters with or without bass
Walking and running on grass
Driving slow or fast, still using gas
Seeing through my own eyes and often glass
Not spending time at any religious mass
Just taking out...

Of all of the twists and turns,
that writing can take; 
the realms, it can build 
and the beings, 
a writer creates.

The travels in space 
and universes to behold;
dark places and spaces,
with things lurking at night 
and the magic and miracles;
of imagination’s flight.

All the places, 
one...

Remove a person from the world
Yet time keeps ticking by,
For those remaining live their lives
As if they’ll never die.

Our presence on the earth is fleeting,
Over in a flash.
We flounder, fret or frolic
But we ultimately crash.

Though each of us accumulates
A varied stack of days,
We may squander,...

The sun shines
Close your eyes
Full of so much light
They cry
Pupils dilate
Start to infatuate
There's no wait
Open your eyes
See the world so bright
A happy sigh
Watch the trees go by
Full of life...

ears twitch
tail flips up

In a flash-! Before you can blink an eye
In a flash-! Before you can say good-bye
With a blast-!  Of his horn at the Midnight Cry
He will catch-! Us away up in the sky   (Chorus)

When the saints are all caught away
For some it...

Just a few small words spoken in vain
an act of selfish pity and pain
Trust destroyed in a flash
The love in your eyes totally replaced
by the hatred of things that cannot be erased
Your love destroyed in a flash
Memories of the past are left to die
as you...

The holidays come and go in a flash,
after months of preparation,
organizing decorations,
Picking out the perfect tree,
shopping with glee,
In a flash comes the end of the
gaiety and revelrie,
A big crescendo ends on a light note,
The partying,
The gift-giving,
The wonderful sentiments,
come to a halt,
Then, the world goes back...

Sixty years flashed by in one big blur
A life with scatterings of luck and good times
No, I certainly can’t complain ~
Obstacles and challenges made me who I am today

Could have tried harder but harbor no remorse
I figure I’ll be ready to face my Maker
But till...

In a flash,
     the time slides,
     the game turns,
    the world changes...!...

In this life so much memory, remembrance
but so suddenly, everything is past...

Like antique china that slips through clumsy fingertips 
Shattered into tiny fragments
Unrepairable, unreplaceable
A blameless mistake 
It's beauty disintegrates 
Never to be appreciated again
By future enthusiasts

Like a daisy tweaked from the vast landscape
Once admired by all that stumbled upon it
Basking in the summer sun
Life dragged from...
