Sitting by the sunny sea
by a sweet posh vacation dream hut
suddenly heaven is within reach

reach and fall
If you reach, you may fall
If you fall you may lose it all
I could prevail
Or I could be put out in the hail
I could be like them
like the heroes
I will reach for the stars
And I may very well fall
But destiny calls

A Writer's Reach
The pale blue lines on which I write
stretch to infinity,
and hint of a distant, misty line
where heaven touches sea.
The reach of sight, the eye's extreme,
as far as the mind can go,
is but a candle in the sun
of all the heart may know.
A writer's reach must far exceed

Fulcrum of a Rose
Souls arrive on earth compelled to survive dramatic impacts.
Each child of spirit will eventually reach for reasons to be here.
Living finds the soul striving for intangible roots, tangibly real.
Foundations are sought to lead, gift and uplift one’s true self.
Fertile roses grow blind to the forces aligned on their behalf.
Unconscious insistence diminishes man’s resistance to

Staying Out of Reach-The Siren’s Story
Staying Out of Reach-The Siren’s Story
She was a fish out of water, only in the metaphorical sense, for the sea was her song and her home, where she played, where she laid her head, and where she was taught to bite with the most melodic twang, but she loved humanity, and her sisters hated her

Reach Down And Touch The Dirt
Reach Down and Touch the Dirt
How far will you take it?
How bad do you want it?
Work hard at all things you do.
With strong work ethics, just follow through.
Reach down and touch the dirt.
Be open minded and alert.
You have to suffer to grow.
Put in the work, be headstrong, let go.
Pick up the iron and never look

this will never reach you
sad, sad boy
you sit across from me
and I can't remember,
had we spoken before?
new clothes, favorite hair
same boy
I can't help but stare
stupid boy
i hope it's my influence
look at me
I'm your solution
I'm your solution

Just out of reach
i listen to your voice
but you're not here
and may as well be
lightyears out in space
tonight the moon
feels much more present
as its allure sways me
to a most bewitching beat

His Legs Would Not Reach to the Ground

His legs would not reach to the ground.

He told a reporter,
“To stop all this floating around.”

REACH OUT
I reached out to shake your hand but you pushed it away
I asked you what was wrong but you had nothing to say
I reached out for a hug in a warm embrace but you pushed
me away and slapped my face
I reached out to help you to take away your hurt
But you just insulted me and
