Dedicated to SomeoneA thousand or a million
It's all the same to me
I'll write for you forever
My thoughts in words set free
I know I cannot tell you
Can't say them to your face
But maybe you'll still read them
They'll be in the same place
And maybe you'll look forward
To waking in the morn,
To see a bouquet waiting,
Another poem born
And...

God all the wayGod all the way
I can’t explain how I survive
I can’t be so sure
When words describes how it happen
Cos all i do is who i am
Am not the best or the greatest
But am living my life
The rest is up to God
It been a journey worth it
The ups...

The Boiling Point
(A poem based on the lesson of strength, change, and choice)
She said, "I'm tired, this life’s too tough,
The road is rocky, the ride is rough."
Her father smiled, and with no word,
Walked to the kitchen...silent, unheard.
He placed three pots on fire that day,
With boiling water in each to stay.
A potato in one, so firm and round,
An...

Let Me RestLet me rest,
For now I am tired of these quests.
What prize for me awaits?
Those hollow salutes and opened gates?
Or those meretricious praise that would echo,
When all I remember is catastrophic derecho?
Or the Olympus you promise with Canephor,
While all I yearn is peaceful plains and zephyr.
Or the victory parades in Roma you were storytelling,
While those...

Life Is But A Trick
Who knows how
Net turns ten
Now own to won
Off arm to mar
The sunshine of four
That rise to grow
Their sheep fur
Just like ours
As long as bride's gown
Unlike a fairy tale bird
Whose ribs are light
Off bid to plead the sky
To help pin its way up
Without its mother's tips
Not to get nip by the wind
Unto the back...

Letting GoThe feeling of letting go...
Letting go of what became the new norm
Letting go of my recent familiarities
Letting go of work which I live for at the moment
Letting go of control of what I seem to feel I have under control
Letting go of that comforting feeling of friends being in the surrounds...
Then I come to the...

when I said I Love you
The love I have for you is too powerful for words.
It cannot be contained by any ordinary imaginings,
Like the ones that come from the places life devours.
This moment; Here, Now: is yours forever.
I am in it only for you.
This is the forever I was talking about
When I said I love you.

Untitled 4Don’t clip my wings
My paintbrush has traced many lines
My feathers have flown in many formations
A commander of confidence
I am flying
My heart is racing
I know I am alive
Am I living?
These talons need to be removed.
Where are my wings?
What happened to my art?
I remember a paintbrush.
Why am I naked?
Did I doubt it?
Did I clip my wings?
~Reborn ...

ive tried letting go, tried to forget.

Summer Solstice 2025Summer Solstice 2025
Friday, June twentieth
at 10:42 Post Meridian
Eastern standard time
will find Earth's North Pole tilted
closest toward sun.
This demarcates
most daylight hours of the year
for people living
within the northern hemisphere.
Just shy of the supposed bewitching hour
(more than twelve hours
from drafting these lines)
nearest star in solar system reaches
highest point in the sky.
Hence hasty...

Sweet OneSweet little one,
Please don't cry.
Don’t shed your tears,
Don’t hide your face,
Step into the light.
Don’t be afraid.
Know that I am here,
Know that I am by your side,
Through the thick and the thin.
So don’t you shy away,
You can take on the world,
Face your fears head-on,
Show them what you're made of.
Show the world you’re not backing down now.
Tell...

My Poetry Dream I've always been drawn to poetry
Robert Frost writes my favorite one
I've tried to be just as magnificent
But my words don't match what he's done
I have wrote touching beautiful words
That fill hearts with different emotion
Depending on the words and their use
My words will touch you proving their notion
I want you to...

After the March"After the March"
Almost eight years, the flags have flown,
A soldier's wife, yet so alone.
Eight years of heartache, silent cries,
Of wiping tears and telling lies
Like "I'm okay," when I was breaking,
Like "We’re fine," though barely making.
Stress clung tight like second skin,
While I held the outside in.
Weight I carried on my soul,
Filling both the mom and dad...

Natural LifeYour dress today looked beautiful
So beautiful on you
I saw it when you first walked in
What others said was true
You wear your clothing oh so well
I love to see your choice
And something else I love as much
Is the sound of your sweet voice
The things that make me notice
Are what things set you apart...
