Take a look around the world
people hurting everywhere you look
I ask you where is the love
Today stop think before you speak
Then love can really leak
out to the person hurting on the street
Friends no longer friends
Why is this , because loves gone away
Once walked hand n hand
Now can't look each other in the eye
Children treated cruelly too
Everyone is seeking to be loved
Will you make a difference my friend
And let your love send
Out to others who seek it so much
We can make a difference today
Stopping hurt, chasing blues away
Reach out and touch somebody's heart today
there is a reason i called you tonight
i was thinking of you today
memories of tears and smiles
the life we shared
it's up and downs, and now here we are
friends on different shores
waiting for life to close the book
i just wanted to say how blessed we are
long down this path
and we are the best of friends
that is why i called
we found where our love belonged
so many do not; that saddens me

Its my time to Soar
On eagles wings and fly

Glowing for all to see
Such joy I feel inside of me
I carry the love for my soup friends
Deep in this Scottish heart of mine
Not just at Midwinters time
Every day of every month ,year
I just love being here to share
My time for destiny is now
For such a time as this

Showing love, joy, kindness to all
A kind being stands out.
We recognize the warm intent.
Friendship always a matter of the heart.
Souls connecting at the root.

See you tomorrow
Have a good night
Terms of endearment
Say it in a moment of tenderness
Mean a lot to people
Don’t forget to say it
And say it often
How is your day?
What’s up with ya?
What’ve you been up to?
How should I say it?
There are many ways to say it
To reach someone to make a contact
Have we forgotten it already?
Where have you been?
Haven’t seen you lately
I wondered when I get to see you again
That’s a lot of days when I last saw you
What’s happening?
How is your family?
Things are good?
Talk to me
When did I last see you?
You miss me?
Say it play it whisper it
And it would be like brand new
A new contact
Just like you never left
Reconnected
Strengthened
Breathe life into
“Dry bones” - Ezekiel 37
See you tomorrow?
What happened here!?
Hindsight’s forever rebuke
“the toys just jumped out of the toybox”
“Billy did it!”
“Billy wasn’t here and toys can’t jump!”
I was too young to request counsel.
Billy had an iron clad alibi.
He had been in “time out”
When the alleged offense was committed.
I was sentenced to “Time Out”
20 Minutes, no bail
No TV and a cold supper.
My fate never changed
As whenever that…that question
Was asked…I muttered….
“Billy did it”
And yes….Billy had an alibi
And I looked guilty….
I tried blaming the dog once
Until it was proven
The dog had an alibi
He couldn’t pee that high up on the tree trunk
I should’a named that dog …..
BILLY
Trick Questions
Our heads are round
so our thoughts can
change direction- but
that sometimes means
going around and around
in never ending circles
we can start again any time
Distance and time permitting
unless we punch a hole in these
distant walls that are separating us
I truly want to see her again and again
I really do remember her and regret
ever saying that I don't
Trick questions sometimes get wrong answers
Especially on bright sunny days regardless
of location and time of year
FELICA
Felica, Felica
I cannot help even dreaming
of you my friend
It has been many hard years
But I would be honored to full fill
your long awaited unfulfilled
birthday wish
Problem is we are far apart-
I am not sure where you are
but imagine it's still Redding
and I am beyond Oregon-so if
you could come to me.................
I might some day visit where you are
However, this is uncertain
Nevertheless, I am constantly looking for you
my brown eyed brunette doll!
Blest birthday blossoms burst out bliss…
…breeding midst life-building best
glows with gracious generosity…
…God-governed that greatly grows
toward triumphant, jubilant, vibrant, radiant, abundant…
…gratitude fueled by praise-altitude upon faith-fortitude---
kindling loving kindness, igniting caring inspiration
as thanksgiving warms friendship and worthy worship
for festive existence of peaceful persistence
signified by a single white rose.
Are you always there for your friends
Can they depend on you
Or don't you care about others
When trouble and strife happens
Do you walk away, or stay
Life can get tough, we need each other
We need that hug
Be that kind of friend, who really cares
Unconditional love is the answer
World is crazy, gripped by fear
Friends need friends to stay near
We all need love, so share a smile today
Friendship
Friend is a word of Royal tone
Friend is a poem all alone
Friend is a word that must never
Be taken for granted and a tree to
Never be cut down
Friend is a phrase that should never be ignored
A term that should be respected and neve
Really questioned even due to a lack of
Understanding
Friends and family are something everyone
Should have- friends and family is something
Even fish have even though they may know it not
If not for the wrong I have
witnessed, I’d have little to
know of good -- discovering
worth by contrast --
From chopping wood I
have found, the breaking down
of hard labor strengthens us.
And love has taught me to endure.
And that friendship wrought is all
I need of victory.
Your message arrives at midnight.
A green phone lights in the dark
from a submarine at periscope depth.
-------------------
-------------------
You ask how
I've been.
You tell me
it's raining
on the train
you're taking
to ride home.
Just thought
I would give
you a ring.
Is now a good
time for you?
How are you?
Is all OK?
Nothing urgent
Nothing wrong
just wanted
to touch base.
-------------------
A long pause,
someone laughs,
a cough nearby
tracks clatter
a horn sounds
like a sonar
ping echo
Down scope!
They're gone
What's left? A dial tone ... hmm hum.
In search of a common thread
to stitch up the rent fabric of
a nation torn asunder ...
A shining beacon to light the
way across an ocean of worry
and doubt ...
Friendships grounded in genuine care and concern
in mutual reciprocity, each for the other ...
A return to serving God and one another
Cortez the Killer was playing
As we danced in the dark
Weaving a web of love
A Möbius Strip
Spanning lifetimes
In the dark, seeking light
Always light
Until with a light kiss
And long last hug
You left us there
And flew
Beyond beyond
And out of sight
A song once heard
Never forgot
So young, yet so old
So full, yet so free
You lay down your load
Leaving us to gather ours
Returning home silent
In the night
Each alone
In our own way
Dancing a circle
A circle of light.
