As surely count the days,

holding dreams hostage
the days are not long enough

It was scraped on the outside,
and crushed on the inside;
However, neither did I lose

nor any blood,
But my spirit;

Not long ago, was the crop of the cream
A rhymer I am
Quite a sham

   Passed this way not long ago
   Footprints in the snow
   A sign that life still goes on
   In this silent winter world

Searching a password that isn't too tough

And the computer says "Not long enough!"...

not long ago
wanting more
than I had known

under starry skies
and hear your song

I saw early on
   not long after dawn
the bright blue of love
   midst white clouds above

Was the blue a sure sign
   From heaven to me
That your 'I' and my 'I' 
    Would soon become 'We?'...

I thought he was not 'long' at all -
he went for a pee,

for long period of time
changing
growing

my wings they spread
my cocoon it breaks

only to find all his trees

headless

Wrestle with a problem for long,
And your stay on the ground will be long.

Wrestle with a problem for long,
And the way up, will seem long.

Wrestle with a problem for long,
And your life will be short not long....

Youth's sure, sinewed fire of limb and gait,
Reside not long not tarries late.
The unetched silk of fair Morning's face
Dons so swift a different grace,
As boastful Dawn must e'er defer
To the granite reign of Time......

the world should know
not  long a go
to make change
there was walks in the rain
tears and pain
from black and white
to see day light
hold hands together they stand
my eyes still see the stain
it was
FREEDOM WALK TRAIN...

there once was a reindeer from Chicago
who worked for Santa not long ago
he didn't like the work
and thought Santa was a jerk
so the company had to let him go
