Hard Times
Hard time is a guest
it carries apples in her bag
a cane around the waist
To get her apples she canes
unwelcome, she canes
in the end smiles erupt...

Broken Hearts
Broken hearts and
bloddy marks
Teary eyes and
painful cries
Hard times and
hurtful lies 
Hateful remarks and
dying hearts
Loving ties and
stupid lies...

Take Back Your Heart
Too many years
 too many hard times
 too many mistakes to forgive
 too many memories resurface
when you look for a new love
you're welcome
 to take back your heart....

The Rose
Darling,
She said,
Look away.
Why,
I say.
Never looking back,
Is what I say today.
Take this single rose,
She told me,
It will comfort you in the hard times to come....

Hard Times
She has hard times
Her face is a darkened sky
She wants others to know
The pain she experiences inside
The doors of evil
Are opened wide
To take her heart
To the other side
She no longer has hard times...

Ask a Question
To him who ask true, the world is given to.
We all fall on hard times. 
Least we ask amidst, we get not what we ask for. 
With kind hear and true spirit the best of man shines true. 
I ask true and wait for the best to come....

Am Proud of Who I Am
When I look back on my life,
I can see the pain I have endured,
the mistakes I have made and
the hard times I have suffered.

When I look in the mirror I see how
strong I’ve become, the lessons I’ve
learned and I’m proud of who I am....

Meghan Markle's 
  lost her sparkle
While Prince Harry
  seems more wary

Old Prince Charles'
  star has faded
And Princess Anne
  looks quite jaded

The Royal Family

Corona virus ~
  our new pre-occupation...

Take Note
O the old poetry!
When hard times meant something
and uncertainty was eternal.
Words of wonder from a stirring spirit,
now gospel to yesteryear's testament.
The rain wet pine once burst forth with
the morning dew.
Alas! My memory is always new....
