July fourth is here,
See the great fireworks display.
My dog runs away.

The heart is more than an organ.
It is the brain of intuition,
Unmuddied by superstition.

I was 
Rocked.
Then blocked,
Docked,
Locked,
Mocked,
Socked,
Focked,
Yes, blocked.
Thank you and
Fock you too.

Tender thoughts 
Of you each day,
Upon a bed of dreams I lay.
Can you feel me when I call?
Here’s my heart, take it all.

The Hour Earth Shakes

The earth will shake on its axis
Rustling the bones of the dead
Those who will rise during that hour
Will collect their value as their life is read

Humpty Trumpty sat on a WALL.
Humpty Trumpty had a great fall.
And all of his lawyers and billionaire friends
Couldn't put Trumpty together again!

Cereal and milk
  goes down like silk,
Makes you smile
  and feel good for a while.
Feed it to me 
  and I'll feed it to you.
I'll even eat it
  out of a shoe!

Never let it become a blur.
Always remember the kid that you were 
And never stop feeling the thrill
Of somewhere inside you being a kid still.

Beauty and serenity meet
  and become inspiration.
Silently gliding on liquid love.
Cool and calm floating gracefully,
  the majestic swan
  silently calling, beckoning,
  "Join me".

What is this feeling?
My heart leaps when he speaks.
The beat quickens,
And inside I'm quivering.
The angels smile,
And cupid cheers,
"Joy!  Joy!  Joy!"
Love lives here.

To take that step,
To make that gamble,
To put your faith in gear.
To put your life on the line,
To grab your future with no fear.
What a trip!
What a high!
Let's take off!
Let's hit the sky!

Terrorizing the world and its people,
Raising hell from the cross on a steeple,
Uneducated lambs become sheeple.
More cheating and lies with a smiling disguise and
Promises he’ll never “keeple”.

THE CLIMATE CRISIS

The Climate Crisis
is worse than Isis.

 Planet health
is more important than wealth.

The Corona Flu
may kill a few
but the Climate Crisis can kill all of you.

Immersed in Verse

Natures reflection so vibrant
Stilled beauty revealing pure grace
Colored precision tis brilliant
Timeless completion, glowing face 
Creates a heartbeat in the soul
Rises toward heaven to extol

Go away
  and don't come back.

Get out of my shack
  and hit the road Jack!

Kiss my ass
  and keep off the grass!

Let me be
  and don't talk to me.

I don't want to play
  and that's all I have to say.

Living and giving go hand in hand 
like water and sand.

Sand without water is a desert dry
and water without sand is no beach in my eye.

So ride the waves that blessings make 
and give to the hungry for heaven's sake.

My wish
Is for my love
And I to be reborn
In a place where the rose’s thorn
Pricks not the heart of true lovers’ desires
But blesses us with fragrance sweet
Petals red on our bed
Granting my heart
My wish

You make me feel free, 
Free to be me.
Happy and silly,
Refuse to be blue.

Don't think about it.
Just go with the flow.
Not too fast,
Not too slow.

Happy to live before the snow.
Here we go!
Hold on tight.
 The Promised Land is in sight.

Losing love can be
  sad but true.
  It can happen to me.
  It can happen to you.
  That's why I say,
 "Seize the day,"
 for sweet memories will never fade away.
 Put them in your heart's treasure chest
 and keep hoping for the best.
