As the maestro meticulously draws sound from the strings,
Feelings and sensations the music brings.
A skilled violinist performing with skill,
Can lull your heart and make it still.
The maestro has a story to tell,
And with his violin he tells it well.
Quickly rising with a higher pitch,
Then fallings again as in a ditch.
Bow across strings faster and faster,
A building crescendo by the master.
Then the soothing of a softer sound,
A sense of release the artist has found.
It’s much like life with its ups and downs,
A revealing balance of smiles and frowns.

I formed in the heavens; they built me in a pure overcast
Concrete looks far too weak to break my fallings contrast
All flower petals decreed a landscape grown to everlast
I will nurture them; in Sun to Moon, this time lines passed
Are you the reapers breaking their stem via fatal dismast?
I will defeat you with relentless moisture unsurpassed
Nourishment is my very gift to the fortifying fibroblast
I am not one, I am Legions found in the storms forecast
Absorbed, watering them and feeding until all are colorfast
From springs Allium till autumn's Zinnia falls hard and fast
I am raindrops acting out the script for which I'm typecast
Draw me in my friends before we are just pools amassed

As the fall is apon us I feel anew
Seeing all the beauty that is in you
Our story so untold
I cannot wait for it to unfold
You are so unexpected
I keep waiting for the ball to drop or be rejected
I have waited all my life to meet someone who
Could make me feel all the feels that you do
Your sweet and kind in all the best ways
I feel so inadequate in what I write and say
You make me feel unquestionably alive
In just being good and kind to you I strive
How can I possibly match the way you make me feel
When I need to pinch myself just to confirm you're real
Those brown eyes matching all the colors I hold dear
You alone washing away all my life's fears
I will stay sted fast as cold sets in
Keeping you warm till winters end

the snowflakes are falling like the words from my heart,
part of the scenery they soon become;
and I breathe snowflakes_
my world changes to a beautiful painting,
and my rosy cheeks are snow kissed ~
I walk the forest paths meandering in thought,
part of a painting that inspires;
and I breathe snowflakes_
winter fills me with joy and love,
and my rosy cheeks are snow kissed ~
I was born in a winter blizzard storm weeping,
into my life snow is fallings always;
and I breathe snowflakes_
cold winter into my poems I love to pen,
and my rosy cheeks are snow kissed ~
"I am filled with love when the first snowflake falls ..."

temps random heated
summer has now stalled it's
now autumns call fall~
*
cool breezes forming
divert distant calms fallings
pumpkin spice coffees~
*
candy apple bleeds
of nuts, caramel, chocolate
cooling down weathers~

blistering heat ceased
it's now Autumns Fall time
season of cools calm~

Chance nautical corvettescent mileage
Of the topical travels terrains
Amongst the bonding trips
Of rain collecting in the waters
Playing pines lake valleys
Rivers running amongst solitary confining drifting pinewoods
Colossus forest mountainous trees
Timber fallings burning ambers
Crawling igniting forcing steams
As the rain flower converges on the populous dreams

Most loves lies embedded in harsh realities;
All love is fallacy
Bring on the chairs relentless confederacy
Fears golden parmalee relation be that they made me
Joy is history amore for you and me
Is fallings in love real

You were born with the Breath of God;
Glory to God in the highest
He was chosen turn off. God's daughter
Glory to God to the highest
This was in 1985
You were born alive
To God be the glory to God to the highest
We are all sinners falling from His face
Through Jesus miraculous Amazing Grace
We can come back to Him
To the father Jehovah Jireh
And through the matter of our individual faith
Abundant Redemption a glorious Trace
We are just all Sinners saved by Jesus Grace
Hallelujah hallelujah
~
It all my wrong choices am I listening to other voices
In my fallings-out your callings
All mine addictions scene convictions
Just minor reflections that I went the wrong direction
Now I decided to follow Jesus
It's not about my slip or fall
It's about if I stay on the ground
Since I'm Heaven bound
When I fall down Jesus gives me a, a lifeline
He forgives me over and over and over again
You my in my spirit soul my queen will you forgive me
My darling...

Where do fallen leaves go
before the snow
Fallings sliding slithering tutoring spiraling down
to the ground
Environmental meltdown
Decompose composite
Frozen solid
Covered by snow
Bio degraded re-arrange molecules particles
Compacted Marsh
Covered over by temperature in snow
To come back in Spring as grass or rose

Springtime in the snow
Autumn passions colors vivid
Shades of love fondling warm breezes
Sweet nectar of passion leaves leaf
All that matters to me
Ever blessed emerald seas
Cool mist of winter eases
All this matters be
A cool sweet victory secrets tree are waving so
Springtime in the snow
Dew drops fallings on my face
Promised nectar sweet release
Calming lemon rose smells so sweet
So alarming ever charming
All that matter to me
Ever blessed emerald seas
Cool mist of winter eases
All this matters be
A cool sweet victory secrets tree are waving so
Springtime in the snow

Sunrise eats the nights heartache
Mournings are the music of my soul
Failing big by what was a stake
Dying every day by loves toll
I'm just dwelling on a prayer
Alone again broken from the part
Drifting from a dream of no compare
Love me now save my heart
Pictures of grief hang on lives wall
Silence breaks the barrior of my mind
Waiting breathless for your yearning call
Capturing your eyes but always blind
I'm just dwelling on a prayer
Alone again broken from the part
Drifting from a dream of no compare
Love me now save my heart
Feelings gone removed from this place
Fallings tears drown me forever
Hurting always seeing the pain on my face
Knowing the cure is us together
I'm just dwelling on a prayer
Alone again broken from the part
Drifting from a dream of no compare
Love me now save my heart
Turning blue from the emotion
Burning to death from passions fail
Wanting to blindly show devotion
Living on with you to tell the tale

Death?
What does it mean?
The end,
or the beginning?
In death,
there is life.
For one to fall,
is for one to rise.
Fallings easy,
risings hard.
Death can come easily,
quickly, slowly, painfully, peacefully.
I would fall,
if only I could.
I am here for one,
and one alone.
When that one string breaks,
I shall follow.
For staying risen,
Without him,
is to live a hallow life.

To tell you a story
Is to tell you what real
What’s real is the thing
That you need to feel
Real is this something
What falls in my heart
Real is the reason
My wings fell apart
See the fallings not bad
It’s the landing that hurt
The truth was the thing
That was soft as this dirt
That’s where I landed
When you saw me fall
You asked me why
And it made me feel small
I told you the reason
But you couldn’t see why
So I get up from falling
To look in your eyes
Darling just think
Your love is my call
That is the reason
I always do fall
Simple as that
So now you can see
I’d fall forever
If you’d just be with me
