The Pooh and PigletSlowly Pak Piglet sidled up to Pooh
To whisper: Pooh, this to make sure of you,
And took its friend’s front paw
In hand with glee bit raw--
Selfish friendship that Pooh will one day rue.

I Am Sorry
It was never my intention,
not a conscious decision,
to cause you any level of grief.
Our give and take wasn’t as envisioned.
Blindly, I let you fall between my gaps.
It’s not right or wrong, but fact that
I got lost in a thronged rhythm
recovering from things life had given.
You have always shone a warm light
selflessly bright into my life.

By the Streetlamp
Feasting heartily midst oats
Mentors expressed grand ratings
That nutrition day triumphs
As fruit salad delights tongue
With strawberries’ dominion
Glazed with honey and lemon
Ending healthy discussion
Along minty gum chewing.

WHEN YOU CAME LOOKINGsonger.co/song/zhrrlz76f4svedppeqpsvle1
[Verse 1]
You came by when the world got too loud,
Eyes like rain, voice full of doubt.
I didn’t ask — I just stayed,
Held your silence like it had something to say.
But I was always the place you’d land,
Not the one you’d ever understand.
[Chorus]
And love… real love doesn’t hide,
Doesn’t knock just when it’s cold outside.
I didn’t know...

Your love to my rescueMy heart lies drowned in its own pool of blood—
Let your care secure me from life’s flood,
From my life, sweetness has just taken flight,
Let your love come to my rescue tonight.
My flower vase has long remained unfilled;
All my heart’s desires stay unfulfilled.
Let not your soothing care depart my life—
Please save my soul—say yes, become my...

Lovelove is a weird concept,
I’ve never quiet grasped it,
I’ve never experienced love,
Not like that anyway,
The love I know is seeing my friend after months of not speaking,
It’s cuddling my cats after waking up in the morning,
Watching tv with my mom.
I know love,
Just not romance,
I’ve liked plenty of guys;
But none of them sticked.
Love is a concept,
Not...

Sisterhood of Scars: now with audio
Each wound I have suffered in my life so far
Has taken so long to form a battle scar
But what doesn't kill me, they say, will make me stronger still
And every wound I suffer will eventually heal
Pre-chorus:
This is the silent language of scars
You can read my soul like Braille
And for each sad story, for every sad...

Your Journey To 100
On your journey to one hundred, I say,
Try laughing, learning, and loving each day.
You’ll meet many travelers along the way.
Share memories with others, take time to pray.
Enjoy a sunset, eat a piece of pie.
Take in life’s beauty and quit asking why.
Take a long walk as often as you can.
Talk with a loved one, walking hand...

A Tale of BuffooneryHave you seen a better fool like me?
A dimwitted dreary buffoon like me?
Buffoonery has its limits, ridiculous,
But for me it's monotonous.
I never change,
I'm always the same, It's such a shallow shame!
Yes, I am the one to blame.
I see politeness wearing
A fancy pair of friendship earrings.
Who does that? An acrobat, a bubbly brat!
Who thinks that a...

ToysI came upon a windup toy.
He danced a jig to bring me joy
because I was feeling low.
My name is Pinocchio.
I'm no ordinary boy.
I told him I was made of wood,
He said that he understood.
The pleasure he could bring
radiated from a spring.
Soon, I was feeling good.
The sadness that his jig belies,
which I detected in...

First FriendI remember you my first ever friend,
You and I were only six years of age,
But within a year you moved away;
Do you even remember my name?
Can you recall what we used to play?
All the fun we had, our goofy game?
Or am I not in your memory book, a blank page?
I wonder why a child's relationship...
