late at night
 a shepherd
 woke his wife

 I saw...heard
 angels sing
 in the sky!

 it’s the wine
 she mumbled
 or UFOs!

To explain in detail, is to take away,

away from the feelings I wan to convey

My heart is inspired for a short burst of time,

so I must find the words quick, and make them rhyme....

Do you remember when phones had a cord to the wall outlet? 
Our son was about five years old.
We were in a hotel room and he wanted to call daddy.
He ran over to the phone and picked it up. 
As he looked at me with...

I like the Light on the water.
I like the Light on the snow.

I like the Light in the hollow.
I like the Light through the fog.

I like the Light piercing cloudbanks.
I like the Light in the glade.

I like the Light komorebi in Spring.
I like the Light...

Kids are rough.
They make my shoulders tired.
My eyes ruddy.
They make me 2nd, 
3rd, 4th guess myself.
All of reality is questioned
And I’m summoned for answers.
Constantly running out of juice.

The fridge and pantries are stuffed to the gills
With every non-preferred food item imaginable.
I look over at my...

Somewhere beyond this there's recovery
Somewhere between the heart and the mind
Sooner or later we will find peace, love and
Joy...we just have to believe even in our
Darkest hour there a light within that always
Shines so don't be so hard on yourself
This too shall pass, keep the...

This contest style’s description is one I’ve never heard
I’m unfamiliar with that particular word 
An internet search comes up empty 
However, others seem to have poems aplenty 
My eyes are getting blurry a total collapse seems imminent 
Quickly penning an entry appears to be the...

Emerald green, he gleams
With rich, vibrant hues
Sitting by the water, he dreams
I wonder about his muse

Singing to the wind and stars
Joy seems his greatest skill
Maybe he is really from Mars
His voice is so loud and shrill

Echoing faintly on the night
Laughing in the shadowy dark
Gracious, he...

You don’t look much like a strawberry, moon
But you do look like a shortcake in June
Round and gold and waiting for that sweet mess
Of strawberries and syrupy sugar, oh yes

I can sort of see it now, like a summer dream
Of beaches and carnivals, heaped with...

Waking up to the sound of birds,
Flying and chirping along the wave of the wind.
The long awaited comfort of the warm sunrise,
Finally dispels the coldness of the night.
Beauty can be seen through everywhere,
Through sight, sound, touch and feelings.
Oh wait, how forgetful I am,
Life has always...

I long to dance and chant around the orange crackling fire in front of my tribe, the Sioux
Hot humid July night.
Sweat and passion.
Kick up the dust from my ancestors teachings.
Yip and scream my heart's desire. 
We are one. 
God is to be feared.
He made us...

Feel the rush,
Chased the ghost,
These are the things
We miss the most.
All of the laughs and all the cries,
These are the words behind the lies.
Never again and never enough,
Know when to hold and when to bluff.
Defeated myself,
Forgot the past.
These are the times,
That never last.
Deception and truth,
Smoke...

I am happy.
I am free.
I’m excited,
To be me.

To be me,
Is a gift from God, 
Because I’m His,
Eternally.

Eternally,
I’m ever changing,
Ever growing,
And rearranging.

And rearranging,
Is what I do best.
It’s my sacred quest,
To ever pass this test.

To ever pass this test,
Is why I’m here,
And I’m here, to win this...
