Anytime today you may begin
Qualifications you should posses
To ensure a greater success

Came banging trucks outside her door,
She wrapped up in a robe to meet the cold
forestry men with the powered saws,

Twenty minutes later the maple tree was gone,
Fifty...

God's life lesson
found in his reflection
that he created in his image

When the weeds clog the...

Used to be a team player 
Took a protective stance 
Learned they were advantage takers 
as only I advanced
There I was lending my ear 
left talking to myself 
yet again I’m seeing clear 
I have...

Cliche Heaven

Be it as it may I'll try my hand at some clichés
    and address the elephant in the room soon when pigs fly.

Have you ever taken time to notice and implore,
that in the world around us there's so much more.

Click
The sound of it echoes in my ear
It’s time to begin, my interview…

in my dwelling place they merge
with the ambassadors of understanding
giving me their pledge.
Capturing the seat of the wise
and sitting over it,
covering its edge
as I wear the garment...

Why do others just remember
The bad things you do forever
One or two mistakes and you
Hear of them your lifetime through
But the good things you've accomplished
Seem to disappear and vanish
Without a trace of "good job"

I lost the sticks
To play my drum
Missing a fist
So, yes a thumb

Still have a head
Though am real flawed
With a bent lever
That moved my jaw

Missing those things
Is a pet peeve
Since was stepped on
Last Christmas Eve

My friends...

Cash makes the world go round, spin
Don't I look like money, that's my twin

Got cash all over me, like it's a...

Damn you how I
despise this labor
that lies ahead.

The cousin of Grizzly Adams’

he ran me over with while I slept.

Off we go with the toolbox

He feared not his death,
because he came to know well,
Him who gave us all life’s breath.
He worked at his goal,
taking life’s problems in stride,
Humility was in him.

as generous as could...

Dear Sister,
On this day, 
in a world that doesn't love us,
Doesn't appreciate us,
But always seems to need us,
To pick up the slack, 
To carry their burdens, 
on our already burdened backs,
To be a team player,...

I don’t know where I’ll be tomorrow,
The past year has been rolling sorrows.
My riches gone, my fame has waned,
And you that I loved, you died in pain.

I never thought that you would go,
At twenty-nine, cancer...

Ever since the game of baseball had begun,
nothing excites the fans like a walk-off home run.
In the ninth inning with a tie score,
