“The eyes of the Lord are in every place, keeping watch
on the evil and the good.”  Proverbs 10:3

For those who don’t know or who adamantly
believe God doesn’t exist,
I must say to you most undoubtedly
God’s eyes upon you are fixed.

It’s we who must fix our...

How can we show others, help them understand?
By doing loving things to help our fellowman?
Letting love flow through us would be a good start.
We should all let it flow through us, just do our part.

There are many ways to help wherever we go,
By helping a...

Making amends 
on both ends, is
how friends- show love...

In a city as big as New Yawk,
There’s so much at which tourists can gawk
But the locals’ fast pace
May be hard to embrace
So if guiding them, slow down your walk.

You can never squeeze everything in,
So pick places they never have been
And of course, be a...

The line of people out the door.
The queue that snaked around the floor.
The building's sleek art deco style.
The carpets' faded plush red pile.

The "Coming Soon" in convex frames.
The "Showing Now" and big star names.
The James Bond pose in poster shots.
The tickets from the kiosk slots.

The...

Arm-in-arm unspoken is the message received; neither of us is looking to disperse;
Standing parallel, hands held laced, with a kiss to yours averse
I'll look for days at a loss for simple ways to remember each smile you intersperse;
Though our dinner is done, can we still...

You can start doing
What you want 
At any time.
Don't bind yourself
With age and other things
Age is never the limit
Unless you make it
Difficult for yourself
Add smile to initiate
Others to say hi and hello
To people you meet each day
Life is showing who you are
In and out, showcasing...

People call it a winter wonderland

I call it a lack of green

Not that green's my favourite colour

But it beats keeping driveways clean

As soon as we think our shovelling is over

Another storm hits with a blast

The grass was showing only two days ago

My hopes once more...

A tiny grudge can 
grow into rage and make one
very merciless.

To feel peace inside:
one must allow forgiveness
replace unkindness.

Turn around and shake
the hand of your enemy,
undo the vile act.

Who is loved by God:
the hater or forgiver?
Be that one and love.

Selfishness is an
unholy act, but showing 
mercy...

A fat lip to bust
Blackened eye covered in dust….
We do what we must...

(Ode to the Crocus)

Before the bud appears 
          	to trumpet winter's end,
before the robin comes 
         	 	to bob-head for his worm,
before my heart rebounds

The Showing—2015 
(Apropos an Exhibition of the Times)

The hand of time paints
Upon the canvas of fleeing life;
Each stroke, a unique highway traveled.
Choices of both happiness and strife,
Chasing unanswered complaints:
Leaving weary twisted minds raveled. 
Faith hangs audaciously on the walls of hope;
The easel of truth wobbles...

I have never came out of the closet about my passion for poetry
People consider it a waste of time and a step backward to failure 
that cannot bring in a steady income and cannot make life worth living
So when I took up my pen and...

I’m standing here so nervous, just about to pass out
Terror has it’s grip on me-I’m filled to the brim with doubt

My palms are sweaty and itchy, I’m having trouble holding on,
What in the heck was I thinking, I should’ve just withdrawn;

Now Luck can sense my...

Because I'd been good for a very long while,
my parents decided to buy me a crocodile.
Then all the kids on the block
thought I really did rock.
Till two weeks later,
another kid’s parents decided to buy him an alligator!
Shoot! And now some kid’s braggin’
his parents are gonna...
