Where fate awaits
Years spent running across a rolling powder keg
of dreams..
feeling in my being, I am someone
I can do anything
like the first time I saw E.T.
Guard the streets til dawn,
find lost puppies, rescue babies..
help raise them too.
Crossed rivers of snow and ice
just to keep up wi' you.
After all, so easy the lives

Life, in its cruelest joke, gives us only enough time to discover ourselves
Life, in its cruelest joke, gives us only enough time to discover ourselves,
we toil through the years of uncertainty, forging identities like soul blacksmiths,
sharpening our talents, enduring betrayals and broken hearts,
reaching the peak of self-possession only to be ready to depart.
This is the irony of life, where maturity comes hand in hand with obsolescence,
wisdom, that

The Happy Wanderer
The Happy Wanderer
I like to wander near and far.
Just me and my little white car.
There are treasures to be found everywhere.
Just waiting to be discovered out there.
Soon I saw a little mom and pop store.
It was in a small house with a green door.
I was greeted by a jolly little old man.
He had a small

Let them not discover the ocean of words dancing within me
Let them not discover the ocean of words dancing within me,
Unspoken, like a siren’s song hidden beneath the waves,
The wave of feelings embracing my heart like a silent hurricane,
Which I cannot refuse, a sea of vibrant and living emotions.
I put down the pen, and the ink faded like a sunset,
I closed the gates of technology,

Discover Our Garden
Exploring the Forest,
Uncovering insects,
Discovering cool things.
Streams trickling across the screen,
Beautiful sounds for the scene.
The birds chirping,
Wandering Fields of green,
A Garden goes unseen.
Once She was pristine,
Balanced and clean.
Then came a being,
Their Trash and Machines.
Acting Obscene, power hungry,
And just plain mean.
Destroying Everything,
Until nothing can sing.
Stomping on our Right to be,
Comfortable in our individuality.
Disrupting our chance to see,
Earth's

In her words, I discover an entire universe
In her words, I discover an entire universe, a world hidden beneath the everyday mundane,
She, fascinating with every glance and thought, a muse that knows no end,
When she waters the daisies in her garden, they sing hymns of gratitude to her,
And her smile, like a sun, illuminates the entire sky of my heart,
This smile makes

THE POWER WITHIN
Learning to swim, when a baby fish
Finds in a secret power to unleash
The power within to fine swim
Underlying, to just push and trim
To open the colourful energy to bloom
Too soon to enjoy the freedom from cocoon
The baby fish, pluming himself on its fins
Finding ways to break comfort zone –wins
The baby fish rides on

One New Year's Goal
Quote By Poet: "As one year ends ~ another is waiting to begin. What will the New Year bring? Only time will tell."
It is almost here twenty, twenty-five,
it is great to be alive.
There is a lady at the end of my street,
we just met and that was so neat.
How did we not know each

Danny Looks for a Continent to Discover
Danny, a superlative explorer kept searching
Determined to find a lost continent
There has to be at least one out there no one has found!
He devoted his life to this quest, every moment thinking of it.
His parents could not relate.
Danny had given up his chances to date or marry.
He lived sixteen thousand miles away from them.
They had

Discover new things
That makes you happy
Even if they make you
A little uncomfortable
Appreciate what life it brings
Growth happens outside
Of your comfort zone.

The Space Between Stars
Notwithstanding, our limited vision has potential.
For once our eyes are opened, it's impossible to close them again.
Whether we look through a microscope for knowledge existential,
Or through a telescope for the understanding of things alien.
We are surrounded by living things terrestrial and celestial.
The magnitude is equal in a single drop of water,

Discover Your Void
No more prayers.
No more loser layers of faith.
Sweep away thoughts of here, after.
Now know it's just me.
Maybe you, too.
Seek a way. Weigh what, a future?
Gospel folly pick your crutch.
Deluded religious mumbos join jumbos,
Scamper to seduce other fools:
"Embrace me",
"Embrace me".
"Save me from myself!"
Fair no longer counts,
No standard measures

Dare to Discover
Do dead dreams turn a heart dark
What say you to ignite silver spark
What if I told you you’re not alone
Not last not first but in your place
That you are indeed someone’s dream
And for you to give up is tragedy
Not just for you but for the world
Yes for it is a small world
Made of people
