Premium Member I Am Free- Healing Power of Forgiveness- Revised
You abused me physically and mentally,
I believed I was everything you said.
I thought you had my back totally,
But my belief in you was hanging by a thread.

I was locked in a mental jail cell.
you were a warden of abuse,
our union together was pure hell.
You would...

Its Taboo
I can’t have you
Girl, I want you
Never felt like this before
On the wind
I feel you dancing
See you standing at my door 
You’re way with words
I am melting
Falling deeper into you
I am taken
Yet you take me
All of this is taboo 

Seductive lips
Sexy whispers
Wrap around this heart...

Rarely Spoken Words 

Rarely Spoken Words

"Please forgive me, I was wrong" --
" when I thought I was right "....
If you ever hear those
rarely spoken words keep
them near your soul...

If the person that spoke them without
coercing-stood strong against their ego-
Liken to a rare jewel, they are.
You...

Premium Member Don'T Hug and Drive
On this eve before New Years I resolved to be cheerful
But while driving my car, another car bumped me
The driver got out, and he gave me an ear full!
It took but a moment, and I knew he was beer filled!
Disgusted and angry, I found myself...

You abused me physically and mentally,
I thought you had my back totally. 

I was locked in a mental jail cell,
our union together was a living hell.

Your vicious attacks tarnished my self worth,
that I constantly questioned my birth.

You were a warden of mental abuse,
I gave up...

Premium Member The Ivory Rose
Victorian white lace, ivory fair of face,
Lips as red, the rose bud does grow, and is
Cut's deeply by it's own thorns.
Graceful maiden, beauties sheer elegance,
Of olden years past, weep ye no more.
Within the golden looking glass, she dances,
To a yearling's lullaby forgotten.
A lone figure in...

Premium Member frankly speaking
fool me once shame on 
me ~ fool me twice shame on you ~
but more I ignore ...

facts of life ~ well taught
lives well ~ so-so not so well ~
not at all ... jail cell

Spring to life ... summer
lounge ... fall remembered ~ then say
colder...

Premium Member Saving the Butterfly
Butterfly precariously caught in screened in porch
Desperately struggling trying to get out, held captive
Can see her frolicking friends through mesh that confines her
Her wings are fluttering faster, she is truly stressed

She positions herself higher, hoping there is a way
Fluttering is futile against steel mesh of...

Premium Member Clown Car Or Elevator
A clown car or an elevator?
A forest or a meadow?
Sad or happy?
The choice is yours.

Pink polka dots or Linen Gray?
A kitchen accident or a freight train?
Joyfulness or Melancholy?
The choice is yours.

A magical kingdom or a jail cell?
Pie or cheese?
Excitement or Boredom?
The choice is yours....

Oh, Oh Kakapo
Oh, oh Kakapo 
You are the world's rarest
Dweller on the ground- Ancient parrot
Your tinged emerald hue is the fairest,
The greatest respect you merit.

Oh, oh Kakapo
Magnificent New Zealand you are from
Never had an enemy,
Until the humans did come
Bringing the ship's rats
and the scary cats
When the Europeans...

Premium Member Billy the Kid's Great Escape
*
Sentenced to hang in the town of Lincoln,
Billy made his bold escape.
Both of his guards died from thinking
that a shackled young boy couldn't break away.

I've often wondered what thoughts were going through his head
as he stood staring out that window chained to the floor by...

Our Moral Behavior
Today's problems can't be fixed by legislative law.
It is our moral behavior that is our flaw.
For being a racist, you can't be arrested.
Even though it is their freedom, that is molested.

If you cheat in a relationship, you will not be fined.
Yet, you disgrace the race...

Premium Member The Cannibal
In the night the wolves howl in the distance,
As the spring lambs bay, with the first stirrings of life,
Close lies the pack of humanity, those for whom hunger for the
Fresh taste of the blooding’s first strike, at the throats of innocence
Most pure!
Have they gone suddenly...

Phoenix
All human life on earth starts in a school! 
In my case I was born just left of hell 
It was a simple time but not that cool 
This hell was time spent in a hot jail cell 
I went and suffered on my own...
