Liberty's free with her smiles
as she sashays down the aisles
Lord knows she must walk miles
specially on the slow days.
She’s so easy on the eyes
midst these posers and their lies
always takes me by surprise
to find she's still here.
Just a butterfly in the wind
never quite sure where she's been
can't go back and start again
though she'd sometimes like to.
Like that Monarch soaring high
someday she’ll touch the sky
l just shake my head and sigh
and have another beer.
Back home, she's had a row
with her new for always beau
too fast or else too slow
both leave her lonely.
Till another comes around
to her dazzling smile bound
but his feet stay on the ground
and she flies solo.
Just a butterfly in the wind
never quite sure where she's been
can't go back and start again
though she'd sometimes like to.
Like that Monarch soaring high
someday she’ll touch the sky
l just shake my head and sigh
and have another beer.
She asks if I like her dress
and I always answer yes
but like most here I guess
I'd rather see her naked.
Even when she dances close
there's distance like a ghost
we raise glasses high and toast
another time and year.
Just a butterfly in the wind
never quite sure where she's been
can't go back and start again
though she'd sometimes like to.
Like that Monarch soaring high
someday she’ll touch the sky
l just shake my head and sigh
and have another beer.

An older poem from another time. As much a C&W song as a poem - I hear steel guitar and ........
Dearly Beloved, I’m Longing For You
The night is so gloomy
Dark, blue, and melancholy
I’m sunk into a deep despondency
I dream of you night and day.
When will I see you again?
My hearth is lonely, deeply sighing
I wish that someday we will meet again my dear
So this bleeding heart will be eased by your love so tender.
Its been a while I haven’t seen you
I can no longer fathom the ocean of solidarity
I am lost and don’t know where to go
Dearly Beloved I’m long for you.
I want to see you!
I want to hug and kiss you!
I want to walk with you in the silvery moon
And enjoy flying with the eagles and falcons.
When the praises and the applauses are done with
When the words of congratulations
And the exclamations of awe are done with
She bids the world goodbye
And wishes it to keep on revolving
While she retreats to her haven
Her room
Her space
Her sanctuary
There, where she can be herself
Where reflected all around her
In millions and millions of mirrors
Is her true self
That which she keeps hidden
But that which reveals itself
Each time
The praises and the applauses are done with!
Why, there, in her secret garden
Her growling monster wakes up
And threatens to shake her image
If she caters not to it
And she,
Like a dutiful slave
Tends to it
Without an ounce of regret!
Then, when it goes to sleep,
Once more,
She sits alone
And lets the sight of the moon
Fill her with hopes
Of someday being released
While being still admired
For the image that she so tirelessly
Worked upon!
She sits alone
And lets the tears pour out
She knows, simply
That the praises and the applauses
Would have not been articulated and performed
If she had chosen
To be herself,
A mistress, having tamed
A growling monster
In the open face of society!
Why, she sits alone
And bites her lips
While her heart wrenches
Causing her tears to turn bloody
She sits alone
And wonders about what the rest of the world
Does
When, like her,
They retreat to their own solace!
For Contest She sits alone

I would like to believe
That it is no mere matter of chance
That I was born.
I would like to believe
That I have life and breath
At this moment in time for a particular reason.
I would like to believe
That I can design my own dreams
And describe my own path,
And that never must I allow my age,
Or history,
Or status,
Or position
To exempt or prevent me from having a meaningful life.
I would like to believe
That I have been placed where I am for a purpose,
And despite all the obstacles and challenges I may face,
There is a plan for me.
I have to believe
That the promises for my future
Are full of hope, and goodness, and fulfillment,
And that neither my sins,
Nor my mistakes,
Nor my doubts,
Nor my questions
Will prevent me from following
The path I have described
That will someday lead me
To the fulfillment
Of those dreams I have designed.
Honor and integrity
Used to come so easily
In a world that used to care
Knowing how to love and share
Neighbors helping all the time
Giving someone their last dime
Or the shirt right off their back
Picking up a neighbors slack
When they struggle to survive
As a storm passed through their lives
Now a days you will just see
People being so stingy
With their time and charity
Never knowing it might be
Them someday who might need help
When life tightens up their belts
Looking up with no one there
Because once they didn't care
As others struggled to provide
For the loved ones in their lives
So the next time you pass by
A stranger with tears in sad eyes
Take a moment-- be a friend
Because in the very end
You might be just as down
Remember:
What goes around comes around
Who am I
To seek to fly
Touching the sky
Left life behind
For peace of mind
Wondering
Blundering
Making my share of mistakes
In my mind living the retakes
Hard I have I tried
Lord knows I have cried
The fairy tales all lied
Worked my fingers to the bone.
Seems I am meant to be alone
I'm at fault
My heart is a vault
Hard to soar
Wishing for more
But I do
So true
I want to fly
And I try
Fear holds me back
Dark thoughts on the attack.
Maybe faith in myself I lack
Refuse to kneel.
Do I have the will
To go all the way
Facing my fears
Weighed down by my years
My tears
Fighting my desire
To get lost in that fire
Letting myself loose my way
Live for today
But today is pain
Lost in the stain
Refusing to give in
For I must win
Someday
Someway
I will touch that sky
As I fly
Past this pain called life
Rise above this self made strife
I find
My own peace of mind
Searched so far
To find some star
When all this time
In the words that I rhyme
Keeping my feet on the ground
I have found
That I already can fly
Touch that sky
Make it mine
I will shine
Be the light
Shine so bright
As I make my way
To a new day
Words flowing through my head
What has been said
Today
Words in which I play
Not knowing what to say
In a crowd
Their talking so loud
My words disappear
Maybe it is my fear
I wish I understood
Wish I could
Change, I do not know if I would
I watch as life passes me by
Sometimes I cry
I was told if I would at least try
I would never fail
Life must be my jail
Standing here
Trying not to tremble in fear
All the people so near
Passing me by
Giving me the eye
I know I must look out of place
In this world I face
Everywhere I go I am the stranger
Hope they do not think I am a danger
Easy to see
In me
The wild and free
Lost when around my own kind
Once again that little kid stuck in rewind
Every word said
Stuck in my head
Filling me with dread
Fighting to be free
From all the words I see
Stuck floating in my brain
I think made me insane
Writing everything down
So in the words I do not drown
Get me out
They seem to shout
Write so much
They make me seem out of touch
Maybe I write to much
But it is all have to get myself free
From all the words I see
So from the world I hide
So many times I tried
To be a part
To have peace in my heart
But I see
I am never going to be
A part or you
I see this as true
What is one to do
Arrange and write down each word
And hope someday they are heard
There I go
Just so you know
I am just passing by
Like the sun in the sky
Looking for me
In all I see
I am just a part of the wild and free
my brain goes between
loving you and hating you
it can never pick a side to stay on
it hurts when you ignore me
push me aside
pretend i'm a ghost
floating around, stuck in one form
while you're free and flourishing
becoming everything you hated
forgetting everything you loved
including me
which is worst of all
it makes my brain hate you
but my brain also loves you
our memories together
spending every day by your side
laughing, smiling
i felt valued
something i had to search for
for so long
my brain never wanted to have to hate you
i never imagined hating you
never in a million year
and i still don't
no matter how much you've done
no matter how much it breaks me
i could never hate you
but sometimes my brain likes to pretend
hating you would be so much easier
i hope someday i finally can
Young ladies don’t cast your pearls before swine,
For their motives have many warning signs,
Cherish your beauty in everyway,
My darling sisters think twice before your so quick to lay,
Don’t become another statistic,
Remember your body is purely artistic,
Don’t sell your soul to a ravenous fool,
This is not just a promise, it is a lifelong tool,
Young princess, that’s who you really are,
Spare yourselves the unnecessary scars,
For out of the heart comes lies and deceit,
While you’re looking for love,
They are looking for fresh flesh to eat,
My angels, guard your treasure above all,
For at any moment you may slip up and fall,
Charm is deceptive and kisses from an enemy come with a price,
Don’t allow a void inside to become a blinded vice,
My darlings, saver your purity and youth,
Someday the right one will come to you with respect and truth,
Just be patient, and love yourself first,
Look above if you question your worth,
For a rose so beautiful and rare,
Has no idea what heaven has prepared.

I never saw him coming nor did I feel his shadowy presence. Not to mention that no one informed me of his visitation.
Not all 'bang bangs' are created equal with bells and whistles. Clueless, it was simply me and him, head-on and face to face.
How was I supposed to know, having never met him before?
Oh, I had heard of him and that I would no doubt meet him 'someday'.
But 'someday' is a very long time, especially when you are busy with life. I knew others who had befriended him, but not many people I knew liked him.
Anyway, I was looking forward to meeting him "someday" with the understanding that my life did not have to be radically changed by him.
I had places to go and things to do and no time for 'Mr. Aging' to creep up on me. Anyway, he never called, emailed, texted, or informed me in any kind of way that he was intent on paying me a visit for the very first time. So it's no wonder I was surprised when he just showed up at my kitchen table as I was
reading a roadmap.
That's right, Mr. Aging just showed up unannounced one day and said in his own quiet way, "Hello, these eyes I've had for some 49 years can use a little help because the print is too small to see". It was Mr. Aging speaking to me, and that was the way we met for the very first time.
