Across miles of sea, on a distant shore
People flee, buildings burn, as missiles soar
Hate spews, with evil we cannot ignore
Lives injured and lost, in the cost of war

Our planet is painted with moral stain
Sketching graffiti...

where my blooming flivver is. It ruffles my feathers no

that my buggy's whereabouts are a mystery.

So closed my lamp

Saw you in light........
While I was in dark & wet.

Which we share everyday 
Fiddling with river...

Inside it is nice and warm,
cuddled up alone in my warm bed,
sheets and covers smother me,
as soft pillows rest my heavy head.

Outside the white, soft snow comes falling down hard,
blowing in from the north, south,...

You do it like you do and do it well.
This Frenchman though a foreigner admires

This is my card. You notice I am chic?

A lady was screaming and running
			in circles, and she wasn’t funning.
			A critter was chasing

			That rooster was swift and so cunning.

			Her four-inch high heels made her stumble.
			While kicking them off, she did...

A Single Teardrop

I remember that it was a sunny day
I didn’t expect things to turn out that way.
From nowhere, completely from out of the blue
You said it’s over and that we’re through

Motherhood,
Made,
But not a creation,
A period of celebration,
A time with impression,
Not named to be,
But how it came to be,
Stress,tears,
Possession,expression,
Depression, confusion,
Are part of the little pains ,
A mother face.

But in the space,
Of time pace,
Joy is prominent ,
Laughter,...

For six months straight 
The Art Committee met; 
Sixteen bright and eager minds 
Had planned the great event.

For six months straight 
The artists looked ahead, 
Refining, polishing their jewels 
To shine at the event.

Then from your children you rob.

Makes me angry, and want to sob
Makes me think you are a slob.

Seclusion

As in twilight sun rays call off
Enabling darkness to budge step by step,
My shadowed seclusion followed
Your slithering reflections little by little;

Beyond the fetters of time
On mirage of dreams
An alleyway opened wide its arms
And I moved...

Remember when we prayed for snow
To call off school, stay at home
And woke to see the covered roads
A wish that came within the night
A blanket of inviting white
That calls to every inner child
Who wants to...

Down, down we’re slipping,
Sliding into the gloom.
The poisons of our choice
Didn’t expect us back so soon.

Down, down we’re falling,
Spinning out of control.
Lost souls forgotten;
Call off the search patrol.

Down, down we’re sinking,
Drowning into the night,
Temptations once...
