Riving the sea like sharp shivs,
To defiy dumb waves.

Greet the new year alive
Remember, no drink-no drive
if you want to stay free
then give up that key
DUI's are not worth the jive....

(S)now covered hills
(L)aughing with the speed
(E)agerly starting over again
(D)riving the sled, trying not to tip
(D)iving in the snow when it stops
(I)nitiating races to the bottom
(N)oses and cheeks red in the cold
(G)oing home to have hot cocoa

E-ndless love will do, 
D-riving away the anger; 
I-t comes from the Lord God, 
T-o bring gladness to
H-er.

W-illing to do every thing, 
A-n endless love remains; 
K-issing the hate goodbye, 
E-nding the tears when it rains.
F-ifth morn of January
I-s beautiful to view; 
E-arly haze will not appear, 
L-ove of God will
D-o....

J-anuary eleventh Wednesday
O-pens the dawn with light;
E-arly morn has broken,
L-eaving the chill of night.

S-hadows, haze, and mist
A-re all nowhere in sight;
N-o more Tuesday fog, the sun sets things aright.

P-reacher proclaiming the truth,
E-xposing the man's own opinion;
D-riving on the right path,
R-eady to tread
O-n....

J-ust go on toward the crown, 
O-r you will lose the prize; 
L-ong life is waiting for
T-hose who
S-acrifice.

G-o on toward the crown, 
R-emain in the right path; 
A-miss walk and move bring
N-othing but heaven's wrath.
A-llow your faith to work, 
D-riving away the frown, 
O-n the twenty-seventh of June, just go on toward the crown....

R-unning to you ahead of time
O-n the fifteenth of July; 
L-ooking for a chance to greet, 
A-fter the night passes by.
N-ew dawn breaks ahead of time, 
D-riving away the rain; 
O-pening the day with warmth, after the heartache and pain.

P-aths of steepest hill
A-re too tough to climb; 
N-ever though will I linger, 
I-'ll arrive ahead of
T-ime....

D-riving on the jagged highway 
I-s risky despite the light; 
Z-one of danger gets wider, 
O-n the fall of 
N-ight.

S-tart with a key of prayer, 
T-hirteenth morn January; 
A-s you travel on the horizon, be careful and wary.

C-heck the brakes and wipers, 
R-eady your tools and shoes; 
U-nder the falling rain, 
Z-igzag road makes you cautious....

C-andid mind makes no fault, 
H-onest thinking dwells inside; 
A-ll it has is in good faith, truth is there to guide. 

R-ighteous and candid mind 
O-pens its clear conscience; 
L-asting love is deep within, 
D-riving deception into absence. 
O-n the fifteenth of January, 
N-o sincere thought is left behind; 
G-od's laws are the policy and principle of the candid mind....

M-eticulous mind of man 
A-ims to carefully think; 
E-very detail is accurate, as both eyes never blink.

M-eticulous mind all the time 
E-xtremely considers correct information; 
N-ever will it be negligent, 
D-riving away mere speculation. 
O-n the twenty-third of January, 
Z-ealous and scrupulous attention to everything evil or kind 
A-llows the good to prevail by using meticulous mind....

R aring to go on my first family road trip 

O nward bound to cross the ocean by ship

A tlantic ocean a remarkable vista to behold

D riving with my family traveling the open road




T urmoil  and tension inevitably begins to erupt

R aging tempers flare as our parents get abrupt

I nnocent children witness the beginnings of divorce

P arents should ask for directions when lost and off course.

W hile the hands move about in front of me
I see them wondering near sincerely
L anding their palms right on my pounding head
D riving with a power, mighty it’s said

H ow much I want them on me, greatly placed
A nother realm of understanding faced
N ever do they reach my skull, I’m so lost
D ays and nights confuse me, in show I’m tossed
S hower me with those hands let me be free
! A great massive display of what can be

D-oor of the heart
A-ims to let love enter; 
H-oping that it will be
L-ocked to ban the anger.
I-t's the door of the heart where all thoughts knock; 
A-s they sense every beat like a rhythmic tick of the clock.

L-et the door of the heart
O-pen for faith to come in; 
S-ee to it that your mind
A-llows it to stay within.
N-ever let deceit dwell, 
D-riving away the lies to depart; 
E-arly fourth of February, guard the door of the heart....

surrounding chaos
foretold by generations
Armageddon's birth

eruptions unfold
spewing forth molten rivers
hell's fire and brimstone

mountains of water
crashing down upon cities
mass devastation

colossal cyclones
catastrophic dark masses
rove around the world

roaring thrashing quakes 
heave and hurl, riving the land
destruction of earth

Nothing left for me to say
Up all night and through the day.
Toil and trouble does seek me out
Riving the rest I miss, no doubt.

If I lay me down to sleep 
The wickedly mind begins to creep.
Worries of old some of new 
I lose the rest that I was due.

I then begin to compromise, I ask my 
Mind to sympathsize
and finally in the end it appears 
my wickedly mind gives way.

Without a thought I fall to sleep.

The wickedly mind,  loses once again....

(S)oft sweeping grass in an empty meadow
(O)ver flowing water splashing from the falls far in the woods
(L)aying on a secluded sandy beach
(I)magining all conquered standing alone on top of the mountain
(T)rails with wild flowers to walk alone following sunshine through pines
(U)nder the sparkling stars in a cove at midnight
(D)riving winding desert mountain roads above city lights
(E)very place to wander that calms the soul in no other way
