Long Forgivingly Poems

If you must look back, do so forgivingly. If you will look forward, do so prayerfully. But the wisest course would be to be present in the present gratefully. - Maya Angelou

Life is all about family and love.

July 20, 1969, this day in history
Astronaut Neil Armstrong walked on moon, 240,000 miles
From Earth, a billion people
Listening at home:
“That’s one small step for man, one giant leap for...

Watching the door every time someone passed.
Trembling hands reached out for a moments joy. 
Her rosy cheeks and eyes were now faded.
Weeping, sitting in her room, she...

BLACK DEFORESTATION

Like innocent trees rooted and growing
In a black social forest, we’re being chopped
down by roving lumberjack officers of the law,

A MESSAGE AFTER DEATH

Inquisitive sorts enigmatic notions as positions--scaled left for the right-hander--behold various perceptions, thus preserving perfection as a cure for misdirection's subtle draw.

A small glimpse, of what death might feel like
Everything, I've heard about this moment is true..

Of feet crinkles crispy snaps with your mate,
as the ebbing tides that breaths winter's fate.
Echoes summons a dusty field in white,
closets freed skis and sleds still not quite right.

Lost souls in hollow of his hands complete,
Emptiness seems to continue to repeat.
Forgotten souls running wildly discreet,
New souls planning total deceit.

Embracing emptiness of his holy hands,
Gracious and giving souls see the sands.
Walking not alone, forever...

To protect you from all harm
You will never have to fear
What lies there grinning in the dark
You will sleep soundly as I stand guard
Surrounding you with comforting awareness
Dancing and swirling in...
