of the ancient tall oak tree, that God's...

The Cost of Revenge, Part I
My blood ran cold
when my grandpa told
the story you’re about to hear
of moral laws
broke by great grandpa,
that would bring all involved to tears.

It was one day
in seventy-eight,
I was a young buck of eighteen,
I felt in...

I Remember
“I remember...” an old man said,
“When the first shot rang out,
When the rebels held their stead,
The British bullets flew about,
And through our ranks they sped.”
Though soldiers fall and cannons shout,
The Flag flies proud and strong,...

The Coach
THE COACH

Went to an alumni meeting last week
 Looking for solace, the outlook was bleak
We lost a game we should have won
A total disaster to all not just some
Cries of anguish torrents...

Saving the Best For Last
Most hosts set out the good liquor until their guests starting getting drunk
and then they commence to serving the watered down and inferior junk
but when Jesus turned that sacred water into a fine wine

I remember when I first met her.
I was the new girl in town.
Alone and feeling dejected,
For a friend I was casting around.

I'd been welcomed at church by many,
Though I knew they'd not have the time,
If...

Against All Odds
They said it wouldn't last,
But our die we had cast.
They said I was a ass,
That I should give her a pass.

Now we are one, both of one heart,
We share the beat, never to be apart.

Grant My Desire
Grant my desires…
To convey my thoughts freely
To holler at candid volumes 
What must be expressed, deafeningly
That anguished chagrin burning
A fiery spark of reverence
In the eyes of those passing me by
While day-by-day the masses survive
Existing in...

They live in a world, where truths are unfurled 
Where justice is served, not undone
Just kids on a quest, to make their world the...

This Ol' House
This ol' house where I was born and raised,
Had no insulation and weren't double glazed.
Had a slanted slate roof, it leaked now and then,
Lots of places where you could build a den.
Had a cellar all...

The compass is broken and I am lost.
It is dark and I am blind,
Stuck in the pit of my mind.

How to escape this maze?
Where is the end of this race,
You see me, only a blank...

Ten Years Ago, Eleven September
Ten years ago, on Eleven September
more than three thousand died,
we should always remember

There was no warning, that fateful day
when those planes hit the towers,
it shall never go away

The Pentagon rumbled, then was on fire

Private Romeo

So he never thought "Baby's in love."
He fought for his rights
and he slept through your dreams
With his self-centred wolverine paralysed
 
Drove out of the camp on a bright...

The Sixties
By: Tom Wright
3/11/98

In protest
"Hippies" burned our flag.
fashioning clothes
that some wore in drag.

Protesting a "Conflict"
they were not for.
Espousing a slogan
"Make Love Not War".

They gave peace signs
while "Grass" they smoked.
As young men died
they sunned and joked.

At least 30 years or more

Being one in their youth
As I have yet to pull that cord

Are stuck in...

Whispers In the Wind
In the autumn of life, I hear whispers in the wind,
faint voices blowing from the buried past
Premature deaths of true enemies and fake friends

In the spring of life, the die was then cast;

The die has been cast,
The mold has been poured.
And the heart has  been hardened.....
Just like before.
Everybody wants what they can get, (and nothing else)
And everybody has their way of getting it.
