I’m buzzing inside, yeah I’m on my way
Gonna find a brighter, better day
Rising up, you’ve seen me sore
No stopping me now, hear me roar
Shedding my skin, a new life begins
From a chrysalis cocoon into butterfly wings
My form takes flight, I rise in the light
Watch me transcend, gaining height
Everything I want is coming my way
I feel the dawn of a brand new day
My dreams are reality
My words are spells casting me free
I feel the light breaking through me
Can’t stop me now, I’m coming alive
I spread my wings and I touch the sky
My light burns strong, my truth shows how
I was always meant to rise- my time is now
I was walking through shadows of who I’d been
Now I’m standing in power, letting it in
Every thought processed, the magic now cast
I’m stepping through-future and past
I finally see the light is me. The living creation is where I'll be
I’m stepping through time, leaving the past
I’m living the magic that I cast.
Come join me....
we went to disneyland
and you are just transported
give me cobblestones, gas lamps and
a passive-aggressive Iron Man
The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh
the sign states you must be sober to ride
there is a rhino appearing to pierce the backside
of a white, moustachioed man, escaping up a tree
is it real, or is it more of the woozle fever dream
and our guide steve tells us to not panic
give me resplendence, iridescence
a fantasyland train station
kaleidoscopic and free hot chocolate
with purchased ticket
'Goofy will now light up the Christmas tree
and ensure all our wishes come true.'
i need that horse i've backed to come in,
brain tendencies and uncontrollable anger
purchase a 'non-stop 2-Day Fun Ticket'
to enter the park two days in a row
who's driving this flying umbrella?
While weed could help your mood soften
Dear roommate you toked too often
The pot you would smoke
On you played a joke
As you're at rest in a coffin
An act-as-they-wish guarantee
Leads brutes to think they’ll tread on me
But I too have rights
And might eschew fights
If backed by a fair referee
If you come again
Come as mine
Breaking all the rules
Love me
For sure come
Trust as you wait
Decide freely
With all your faith.
Come with me to the sea, my dear,
Where the waves whisper soft and low,
In the twilight’s fading glow,
We’ll find the peace we’ve sought for years.
The sands are cool beneath our feet,
The stars like pearls will light our way,
Let the night wash care away,
In the moon's embrace, our hearts will meet.
The ocean sings a lullaby,
A song of love both deep and true,
Its melodies are meant for you,
Beneath the endless, velvet sky.
Come with me to the sea, my love,
Where the world is far, and time stands still,
We’ll leave behind all earthly ills,
And drift through dreams like clouds above.
Some of my poems are truly inane.
Screeching, preaching, a run away train..
Impulsive poetry is to blame.
It's just my style. I'll sign my name.
It's never racist.
It doesn't seek to defame and
none of my musings would ever proclaim,
to "make America great again".
Poetry soup is a haven, a safe space.
It's certainly not a Presidential race..
If America wants a President with a.d.d.
and lots of extra energy.
Put my name on your ballot,
as I'll come with poetry..
Don’t linger in tears and sorrow
For it will not bring me back to you.
Just remember the lifetime we shared and how
I truly loved You.
Face each day with a new beginning,
A story yet to unfold.
You now must follow this new
Path for you have a new story that needs to be told.
I have to say you took this poor
Tormented soul from agony,
And now you’re called to help another save his soul
And set his spirit free.
Bring him back to the path of light to become the one he is destined to be
So take his hand and walk the path with him and see
The path to both your destiny’s.
Come with me, I'll take you to the prom.
You're my heart throb as everyone knows.
Come with me, we'll play through the night,
And I'll be sure to twinkle your toes.
The girls will look fancy to the max.
They'll all be wearing fabrics of green.
Come with me, oh Adonis himself.
You'll be the hottest guy on the scene.
I'll twinkle your toes, I'll sing to your songs,
And laugh at the love prompts you say,
Come with me, oh darling, please come.
Youth waits at the dance to run free.
First Memories - Come with Me
As sure as it must, a dark sky breaks.
Come with me, in the new day’s sun,
We’ll gladly give whatever life takes,
Whiling our time, till daylight is done.
Sit with me like we haven’t a care,
Under a canopy of shady tall trees,
With gentle wisps of Spanish moss,
Waving under a soft village breeze.
We will be back, when back we turn,
Time stretching like the road ahead,
In a long procession of languid days,
A parade of beauty, in words unsaid.
Dance with me in dusk’s fading light,
Where music sways and lovers swoon,
Close the space and share the sight,
As night brings our first rising moon.
We will embrace the sweet serenity,
Forever found between me and you,
And be glad of day’s long eternity,
Cast over our first pale morning dew.
Come with me as the sun begins to fade,
The brilliant orb slowly makes it’s way for the evening shade.
In the distance the sound of a nearby stream,
My thoughts quickly take me back to another time and stream.
Was it so long ago we sat by a stream,
Planning our future our hopes, our dreams.
My thought take me back to that time and place
And in the blink of an eye it’s gone and the present takes it’s place.
Come with me as the sun begins to fade
The brilliant orb slowly makes it’s way for the evening shade.
In the distance the sound of a nearby stream,
My thoughts quickly take me back to another time and stream.
Was it so long ago we sat by a stream,
Planning our future our hopes, our dreams.
My thought take me back to that time and place
And in the blink of an eye it’s gone and the present takes it’s place.
Let’s take an exercise class
But I don’t have clothes that match!
That does not matter, look at your ass.
Okay I agreed and I began loading my hatch.
We ended up bringing another sister along.
I told her if she matched she would have to pay our fee.
In thirty minutes we were doing every exercise wrong.
The instructor laughed so hard, she gave us our lessons for free.
Miracle doesn't come with miracles.
The selection has come and gone
With many congratulated for feign victories
People's Will bashed as hope remains forlorn
Though the grey fought with their voting power
Yet they remain powerless
Who dares decide for the ruthless,
That solely gains dominance ruthlessly?.
Just tell me;
"If winnings come with cheering, why then is your victory bleak"?
Why has it evoke dismay, and burns a rage in our minds
There is calm in the land, but fire lays on the roof-top
The country is divided at the birth of your unruly governance
For the proclamation is at variance with our reality
Therefore your unholy triumph conflict our assertions
An imposter you are and an imposter you will remain!
So as Sun is to the Day
And the Moon to the Night
For every ounce of downcast inflicted on the nation, upon your selection.
Nature inevitably awaits.
