A Horse with No Name's Enduring Ride
From desert winds to ocean spray, A harmony that lit the way. Three voices blended soft and clear, A sound that soothed the listening ear. Dewey Bunnell with words that flowed, Of horses wild and paths untrod. His melodies, a gentle breeze, Rustling through the sunlit trees. Gerry Beckley with chords so bright, That painted landscapes in the light. His soaring vocals pure and true, Reflecting...

Mom writes polemics, when a cause grasps her heart She's a good soul and wants to do her part A journal took one, so she emailed it to friends Then found that old age had brought many to their ends Sometimes children answer back, or maybe a weary wife They thank her kindly, talk about the...

Enduring Distance
IT WAS THE STAGE TO LET GO From deep eye contact to digital chats, Trading hugs for calls of solace! Happy and heartbreaking distance. The beginning of her new journey leaves me restless, Torn between supporting and struggling, Longing to see her flawless & accomplished. My pride would never fall! I relinquished but never the love, Walking beside her hand in hand, Enduring it all...

Premium Member Enduring Principles
As I approached the political poll, a fellow countryman spoke a word of wisdom to my soul. He told me that I should consider 'voting' as a task that never grows old. He related this short story to me: "For 55 years, I have exercised this right to have my say. Sometimes in tears, I have cast my ballot on...

Premium Member All the Men We Used to Kill
Sometimes I think about the past, The life we knew would never last, And all the men we used to kill, And that great void they used to fill, And that great spell we used to cast. Under the sun and in the heat, Our enemies dead at our feet, I thought I’d die there in the sand, And for the future...

Premium Member Energy For Life
Burning, a furnace in my chest, a fire for life, a relentless quest. Craving, the taste of truth, the sting of the real, a soul in motion, a spirit unsealed. Raging, against the lies, the whispers that deceive, a warrior's heart, a spirit that won't grieve. Shattered, by broken vows, by dreams that turn to dust, but still, I rise, a soul I must trust. Yearning, for a true love, a passion that burns bright, an untamed...

Are life’s griefs to stay like set cement? Or drift away, like any passing day? How can I be sure how much to endure? Before I let it go, and let the future flow? With a silent moment’s thought of things taught A calming peace is caught, only if it’s bought. With reverent intent, remorse is spent. Let go and move forward...

Premium Member Enduring
Somehow, difficulties I’ve faced today Will blend slowly with tomorrows, And the pains and sorrows I’ve had today Will morph into fading thoughts tomorrow. Somehow, yes somehow, I will survive, And I’ll be much, much stronger for it. For I always strive to stay alive, And never ever deign to permit Mistakes of my near and distant past To drown my hopes, dreams, and...
