Leave out the dark days of time
dispatch, leave it be.
And embrace my tomorrow and come
a better rightful hand of He.

Color love 
With lace 
Bring the meeting place
Don't leave out 
Special stars 
Music cards
Candy and stuff
Red white animals to toss
Soft play being boss
For ever in a day

“Take Out” means these things assorted
Food, dating, assassination and the garbage
Last two leave out
Others are fun no doubt
Assassination comes with a heavy fine imparted...

      French Leave

Party keeps raging on fire
I leave out the front door
like a ghost without desire
float into a bed of a whore
donate my seed to the choir
I hear the Symphony soar.

Oh wake! Awaken my heart:
So I may find myself.
Don't leave out the good parts;
Let that be what's left.
If I go to Hell,
Would the Devil call me knave?
For it is my will,
Not to climb outside my grave....

Embrace me
in love
forget the past
leave out the pain
forget the tears
 Place your trust
in me
in this future
in us
 Hold me close
 we will try together
to make a world
beyond fantasy 
making wishes
come true
in ways
exceeding expectations...

With an array of foreign stamps 
send me a postcard message please;
Take me through those vibrant cities!
Let me see all the rustic camps,
stories of long hikes and leg cramps;
Don't leave out forest oddities!
With an array
of antiquated outdoor lamps 
brighten a dark dead of night breeze;
Show me scenery that revamps
with an array....

Thinking rationally if you leave out one part                                                               Enlightment in the wrong speed and direction will go                                                  when missing in the equation in the end middle or start                                             naturally instead of a brilliant light you are separated into a black hole...

When I grow up I will be 
A forest with every kind of tree.
Part of a dark brilliant woods
I will do all the gets, leave out the should’s.

People will revere me for my age.
My rings will show my wisdom sage.
Of course I’m in no hurry to be cut down.
Unless it’s done by a lumberjack clown.

A lumberjack clown I’d like to be
If I cannot be a forest with every kind of tree....

when we hear this word 
what do we think? 
Love, Joy, Laughter? 
Sorrow, Sadness, Grief? 

How about the odd things? 
The things that we leave out. 
Selfishness, Condemning, Grateful! 
Generous, Invisible, Cruel. 

Are our hearts good? 
Do they work evil? 
Do they rejoice in truth? 
Or laugh in the condemnation of others? 

Many names... many faces. 
but who molds them? 
HeArtS... 
Our Hearts....

POEM 16 I THOUGHT SO 



I THOUGHT SO AT THE FIRST TIME I MET YOU I ALREADY HAD FALLING IN LOVE WITH YOU. 

I THOUGHT SO AS OUR FRIENDS TEASES US I THOUGHT YOU FELL FOR ME ALSO. 

I THOUGHT SO NOW I UNDERSTAND THAT WE DON'T HAVE THE SAME FEELING FOR EACH OTHER. 

I THOUGHT SO YOU LEAVE OUT OF EVERYTHING CRYING FOR MY LOVE & CARE I THOUGHT I MOVED.

On Christmas Eve, good children wait with glee
for what dear Santa leaves beneath the tree.
But think about dear Santa Claus because
there is a lot of hard work that he does!

You hang your stockings up for something sweet.
But do you know he’d also like a treat?
So here is something good that you can do.
Leave out some milk for him – and cookies too!

Whew! That was a close call, I bet you didn't know,
That I already saw that fashion statement, I already saw that pose,
I saw you underneath that hoody, I watched you walk the catwalk,
You say you are a dog man, but you creep like feline in your stalk,
I told you once and I'll tell you again, I'll only leave out a bowl of milk for you,
Because if you were a dog man I would put out real food, but your meow is nothing new....

It's raining again
wind is a tempest
scattering leaves
making patterns
or not I shrug
much like a weaving
planning destiny
those sisters 
those witches        
they weave and they snip
then weave again
though I cannot 
see the tapestry
they leave out happiness
deliberately I think
they think 
I would die
for a spot of joy
and they aren't ready
to snip that last 
knotted thread
not this year
and not I fear next...

Make it count make it good
Make it clear and understood

Confusion is wisdom's slayer
Do not hide your meaning under fancy layers

Be blunt and straight in what you say
Be honest and true then be on your way

Too many words and too long of a speech
Makes one bored and fast asleep

Keep it bright, keep it light 
Leave out hate, leave out spite

You will get your point across
Whether you follow or are the boss...

Storyteller, storyteller
Please tell my tale
Just make it long and beautiful
Make it really sell
You can add in lots of twists and turns
Just make sure they're true
Don't leave out the happiness
Always remember the blues
Let the whole world know
The type of soul I have
Finish up with greatness
You have to start with the sad
It's not for the money
It isn't for the fame
I only want to let at least one other soul
Know deep down we're all the same....

The ol master was fast asleep
                 In his bedroom,a little mouse creeped
                 He stood on the floor by the masters bed
                        And made his request
                        Please ol master
                 Leave out a chunk of cheese
                 And i won't gnaw on your sleeve
                 One day i'll grow into a big rat
                          Please ol master
                          Lock up your cat...

Love will come and
Love will go
That's what they said
And it seems so.

At first you are inseparable
And as the years pass,
You grow distant
And then you are strangers.

It's funny how they say that
Life is a circle.
You come into the world
Dependent & leave just the same.

You came in diapers
You leave in diapers
Came in ignorant
Leave out stupid.

They shield you from pain.
They put you in pain.
They love you to death.
They wish you would die....

I didn't do anything today
but I'll leave out tomorrow
I have been napping all day
I must let afterglow
perhaps I'm too alert
thus it's difficult to relax
until I wear down avert
and finally I'm lax
I'm feeling a little bit down
a fellow poet will be absent
I'll miss his faithful renown
for kindness doth raise attachment
I believe I'll proceed to writing
till my hand begins to cramp
life will always let in-sighting
love and light to ease this vamp...
