I write, Mama

heavy with memories of your booming laughter
your mischievous twinkling eyes
and your engaging banter
My heart is heavy...
heavy with hope
that this is not the end
that I'll see you again
in that sweet never ending day
My heart is heavy...
heavy with love
love for my father's brother
my second...

Bigfoot's Ancient Great GranddaddyWho is Bigfoot’s Great-grand Daddy?
Whether living in a city or on the mountain side,
People from the world around astound us with their views.
He’s nine-feet tall, a hairy thing, uprightly he flees astride.
Only tracks are left behind and the mystery accrues.
They say that Big Foot does...

She Holds Me BackShe holds me back~~~
my little girl
21
not so little
but to me
she'll always be
my little girl
thoughts of her
hold me back
when I just want to sleep
Sometimes
I just want to sleep
to go to that place
where there is no thought
no dreams
no recollections of pain or joy
no consciousness
nothingness
Sometimes
when my heart...

A Friendly ExonerationTwinkly bunch with loaded school bags
Ambition injustice and itching their backs,

Heedful pupils well-chosen apparently late.
A fistful primary breeziness
Shared with smiles, tears and silliness,
Together they brawled, together they fiddled
At times they often complained to be differentiated.
Kiddo little...

He Lives In Mewhere does God lives
up there or within me
if there is God in the sky

he has ears but can't hear
why do I live in constant fear
if he is...
