In peacetime we're divided
at war we're united
Something wrong here
time to right it

America At Peacetime
We had peace like the flowers blowing in the wind.
After the rain the pretty flowers. Peacce like the sunset ends at the quiet of the day.
Peace like the New Years after the war, Peace forevermore.
Our freedom to love and hold our babies. and vote and live. Freedom to be happy and
enjoy

Peacetime Summer Reds
The morning night thunder-shone
The bright stars fractured me
You in sudden surprise
Whirling in your misgivings
Baby gulls sit on our heads
And we weep forgetting to be merry
Broad is the scope of infinity
Meet me in brackish waters
Death to focus
Death to style
Come worming up to the hole
Peacetime summer reds
I can eat a clock and dream of orangutangs
Forgive these latches
Remove

The Old Lady's Last Request
Over a time frame of about eight years we would talk about the chapters of our
lives and listening intently to one another
She came from a small town in Texas and was an only child and was much closer to
her dad than she was her mother
Usually we would talk in private, just her and

This Time
This time I close my eyes
But now they're opened wide
To all of the things that blind
To all of the things that obscure my sight
This time I face the truth
To all of the obstacles thrown in plain view
To all of the visible clues
Of everything I have to lose
This time I can breathe
Now the air is clear

Snap! Crackle! Pop!
Snap! Crackle! Pop! is the whispers of a warm camp fire.
The sweet aroma of the maple as it leaks out of the burning wood.
The fresh air.
The glow of the yellow orange fire.
The clear dark sky with the moon and stars shining so bright.
Snap! Crackle! Pop! is the sound of peace.
A camp fire is time

Walk the Peace
Each day lips rise,
Chanting "peace",bloodshed,they seem to despise,
As they seek to diminish war's size,
Bringing to light hopes of being wise,
But with time their shouts grow frail,
For living it they fail,
Whiles tears continuous to grow sore for death's tail,
As soul's cling unto its trail,
But its time to live the talk,
For unto its path we should seek

Reminising...
i want to go back
to the time when nothing mattered
when being daddy's little girl
was the best occupation
a big little woman
could manage...
Back when riding your bicycle
across the hood was
the greatest adventure
Back when having a crush
on a boy who sits across me
during art class meant nothing
but coping with being shy
and clumsy when he comes around
I want to

-within That Time Alone-
I sit alone this morning with God
for I know that He is here.
Though thoughts may race within my mind,
He says, "Be still and of a good cheer".
Heavy burdened and weighted down
from these thoughts which contend for His throne,
He bids me, surrender them up to Him
For my heart belongs to Him alone.
Within that time alone with
