Summer Breeze

The heat of the sun 
bears down harshly

then a soothing breeze 
will comfort overheated flesh

providng a respite of coolness
on a scorching day

My New Years Resolution

Stop judging harshly 
Wipe the "doormat" off my head
Learn to love myself.









(To achieve these goals is a process, but I am determined to get there.)

"monster"

Who determines if someone is a MONSTER?
When people point, There are always fingers 
pointing back,
They judge others harshly to make up for what they lack.

Your Thoughts

Your thoughts
Are like a breeze.
Gently,
Sweetly
It will breeze up you and others.
Your thoughts 
Are like a storm.
Harshly,
Eerily
It will storm about you only.

Rough To Smooth

From
lake’s front
cliff stands proud
harshly sculpted---
rough

Till
fine grains
tumble down
like pearled beadwork--
smooth

Not So Cute

trapping mice, what to do, small, alive irritating you want to kill them harshly, vigorously stomping make them squeak no more so they can't ****, and ****, and **** in your space

Dawn

Those who dream 
and value Time 
live to see a Dawn.

But doomed into 
the ruins of a Dinosaur
are those that forever
Dilly-Dally.

For theirs is Drowning
and Dropping
Till history judges
them Harshly.

Into Its Mocking Belly

the wind
breathes harshly
against my tired face

it tells me I'm finished but I keep going
on -- plodding, plodding 
onward into its mocking belly

if you're not moving forward in life
you're moving backward

With Me

You are:
Another forgotten obituary,
I still:
Shed tears at night,
You are:
So harshly missed,
I still:
Think you are at home,
You are:
Not in Charleroi anymore,
I still:
Write you often,
You are:
Always here.

Comedic Moments

Comedic moments when some people talk harshly about things they couldn't understand 
It's like trying to criticize the ground where they stand 
Without understanding how it came to be 
Even dirt on their faces, they could not see

Illuminati SUNDAY

Prince of piers, reader of seers
Feelings unscorced unfelt
Not a part of keen believers
Akin to a hand harshly dealt
No more sorrow within
 into fire mercury melt
Drowned in unknown sin
Into gold we all shall turn
Never again to force nor burn

Secrets

Guilt knaws at my stomach,
And worries my heart.
It wraps around my throat
And squeezes harshly,
Stealing the breath 
Right from my lungs.
Unease settles somewhere
Deep in my core,
An aching fear of secrets 
that may not make it
to the grave.

The Lesser Instinct

Winds sing harshly, 
And nature gone extinct. 
The earth has softened, 
Though the sky is in a rage. 
A silent echo is monstrous, 
And life cringes for change. 
Harsh words release a beloved temper, 
While the knock sings to the lesser instinct.

Fireworks

We all grieve in our own little way but this was a bit unusual Fireworks a wife put in her late husband's pockets were really beautiful A heart-felt display A loving gesture I'd say Maybe reacting harshly but they had problems irrefutable

Raindrops Falling

raindrops falling lightly
tapping against my windshield
raindrops falling harshly
pelting against closed house windows
raindrops playing tricks with my mind
kissing my soft skin
playing peek a boo in my hair
moistening my lips
raindrops falling, falling, stop

In a Sharp World

In a sharp world of harsh words Tenderness has escaped it I feel like I am surely Very deflated A piece of me sits aloft With no air being left in I’m no longer inflated Pierced by the ice pick… Of the harshly frozen world

Journey

Just take the first step. Walk,
Jog or crawl, but begin!
Journal pages will talk:
Joy and pain, found within.
Judge not harshly, be kind,
Join the search – you will find
Juicy wonderful life.

The View From Here

These eyes the world sifts harshly through, 
      see what I want them to believe. 

               ***************

           through life glistened eyes  
           glimpses of a desert road…
               view from a mirage

Untitled

Everyday,
Is a struggle to maintain composure.
People who don't know me,
Judge my decisions harshly.
They listen to his stories,
And decide I am cold.
I could tell them my side,
But I just bite my tongue,
It seems as though, 
I'm the only one 
trying to be the bigger person.

The Dreaded Call

The phone rings harshly,
I know this soul well,
What could you want now?
Doubt enters my mind,
Should I dare answer?

I don’t know you,
Not anymore,
You’ve masked yourself,
With these years gone.

Old lovers,
Torn apart,
By your greed.

I don’t
Hate you:

False.

Beneath The Flower Moon

You’re called by fragrance to get out,
to bathe beneath the flower moon;
The whisper of Summer’s a shout,
you’re called by fragrance to get out;
Stirring dreams seem to layabout
‘til coaxed harshly from their cocoon;
You’re called by fragrance to get out,
to bathe beneath the flower moon.

Secrets

Shyly withholding breathtaking events
Ever so harshly realizing what it all meant
Ceasing to mention a word of my wit
Reaching out and touching my inner being of guilt
Even no spoken words, that was purely tough
Tremendous will has been morally rough
So you ask yourself...are they worth it?

No Child

This is the hardcore reality,
refused to be acknowledged by the ignorant majority.
No child born today will die in a free society,
and the bulk of their innocent lives will be lived very harshly,
unless real change is brought about immediately,
but positive change will never happen politically.

Split

I tend to shed a tear some time
for a love I wrongly took as mine.
A tender heart so harshly crushed by thee,
so close to split, I'll count to three.

I tend to shed a tear some time
for a man I blindly took as fine.
A fragile heart so fiercely struck by thee,
so close to split, I'll count to three.
