When My Life Changed

Remembering what she used to be. 
How she could light the world ablaze without a second thought. 
Her words like daggers, always ready for a fight. 
Always wanting and waiting for the thrill of the adrenaline. 
Her feels numb, not even feeling the hurt of being used anymore. 
Was it the constant state of depression,

Quote: "Try not to resist the changes that come your way. Instead, let life live through you. And do not worry that your life is turning upside down. How do you know that the side you are used to is better than the one to

Blinding Love

I wanna feel that blinding love, The one you'd live for
The one which feels like sunshine and rain on your face. 
The one that feels like the first leaves of the fall.
I wanna witness the summer of love with, sweet voice notes, long hugs and late night shenanigans. 
Ballroom dancing in the middle of a

The Journey Within

Heart of mine throbs with triumph
      grateful for life’s exposure
        while beholding beauty of kindness.
       
        Likewise, my soul keeps on worshipful
     seeking for God’s approval

Meadow Butterfly

The butterfly, its crimson mottled wings
flitting in the delicate Autumn breeze;
uncurled proboscis taking sweet nectar
from early dawns, newly opened daisies
does not regard the corpses of the men
whose dead eyes ever stare the grass below
fresh attention-seeking meadow flowers.
Men's bodies yet unclaimed, save for ravens
who do outpace the sunshine-seeking flies
and vacillating mothers, sisters, wives
to take an early

Sad Summer Sky

he spoke of sweet nothings 
like the weather and such
and that kiss that they stole 
on the first night they met

she watched on in silence 
as he reached out to touch
with a rose in his hand
as the sun slowly set



but that very same rose 
with its petals of tears
has since withered and died 
'neath the

A CRACK IN THE SIDEWALK: When My Life Changed Poetry Contest

A CRACK IN THE SIDEWALK
Poem written for and submitted to “When My Life Changed” Poetry Contest, Kai Micheal Neumann, sponsor.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Early morning, sun dripping gold over weathered fences.
     I was running, feet rhythmically striking the pavement.

Then a sudden jolt, my foot caught in a yawning crack.
     I remember

High on Life

High on life
I was high on life
Not walking on water
But soaring above the clouds
Free from the rain
Immune to the darkness
Now I settle in the depths
Gazing up at the warped sunshine
Turbulent waters
Was this where I was before?

Tenacity for Life

Simply it's my life 
Full of tensions and problems,
But I never give up 
Cause I'm stubborn in it all,
I have passion for doing 
All that I want, want heartly,
I always face all the 
Troubles, problems and negativity.

Yet, sometimes I tir 
All of it, that happen bad,
Sometimes I can't 
Bear all interruptions in my work,
But I

OF LIFE AND DEATH TODAY: A 5-7-5-7-7-7-5-7-5-7 FLOW
(Apropos Of An Ironic Juxtaposed Reality)

Ironically,
it’s cheaper to live than die:
Save, self-cremation:-
Even then, you must pay for
The ashes to be cleaned up:-
And don’t forget, the family
Is charged to pay off all debts
That you may have left behind:-
Ironically,
We are born to live and die,
Life, being cheaper:
Funerals are expensive!

COMINGS AND GOINGS IN THE DAYS OF OUR LIVES

COMINGS AND GOINGS IN
THE DAYS OF OUR LIVES

In all life’s seasons,
Each day has its three
To be: yesterday, today,
And its tomorrow:-

Today was yesterday’s 
Tomorrow, and will become
Tomorrow’s yesterday,
Which will become a today:-

No matter the day or
The season, give God the praise
For today, which was yesterday’s
Prayed for tomorrow:-

Thus, be the blessed days
That are bestowed upon us
In travelling

Life Is A Gamble

There is a town that is so enchanting,
at it’s center a strip of wild saloons.
A hidden game’s still in play enticing
gentlemen with a lust for golden spoons.
While holding a Joker’s hand start betting
you may get lucky and find the tycoons.
Are you breezy enough to shoot a shot?
Life is a gamble here, like it or not.

GETTING READY IN NATURE

GETTING READY IN NATURE

Lions shaking all off…
Elephants self showering…
Snakes changing their skins…
Human nature needs cleaning…
Time to wipe out injustice…

IN REALITY OF THE DREAM

IN REALITY OF THE DREAM

All living in peace;
All injustice uprooted:
Justice’s mountain topped:-

All Is Right

The moon, luscious drop,
soothing the chaff of day.

The stars, flocks of grazing 
glitters -- heavenly sheep
tallied till the dawn of
a new and hopeful morn -- 

Earth, making fond concentric
circles; beloved sun, 
her prime and central spark -- 

All is right, with God’s light and dark.
