One Percent Chance of Win

Hard to say never give up!
It's  very simple when say,
But when we work on it 
It's more difficult than we think.


Yet, I say never give up 
Perhaps, you get,what you want,
But remember one percent chance 
Too much to win!

Ceasefires Don't Give Peace a Chance

Guns stop firing, still the hate goes on,
with grievance still burning all along.
Peace talks halted, no hearts in repair,
Just hollow moments, trembling in air.

Need more than stalling, need to claw back trust,
Need to face the truth that inclusion is a must —
Not in the silence, but when hands entwine,
Not to encompass truce, but to redraw

The Mystery Of Destiny

Destiny, oh destiny, why hide thyself from me.
Come out, come out, for all to see.
A life filled with struggle, then at last a surprise.
Why not reveal now how I self-actualize?

Have I no choice of my destination,
How I’ll proceed in my maturation?
How many ways could there be?
Or outcomes to this mystery?

More than one, surely a few,
Leave

LET LOVE LEADS

I know you’re hurting
I know you're completely lost
But just this once
Let love lead the course.

Let it lead, gentle as light
Mending the broken bridges
Guiding you gently home
Back to where you’ve always belonged.

Love has its simple ways
It thrives in  the dark
Plants a candle in your chest
And teaches the heart to trust again.

So let it reach you.
Let

SECOND CHANCE

If I ever had to live with regret
It would be the choice I made
That day just past midday
When the world dropped its mask.

There I stood adrift in thought
Drowning in a tide of anger
Sinking beneath my own silence
Wounded by what I didn’t know.

If I could build a softer clock
I’d turn its hands back gently
To the moment

'Give Peace a Chance' 55 Years Later

  ~ To the tune of John Lennon and Yoko 
     Ono's 1969 song, 'All We are Saying is
            Give Peace a Chance' ~

A Lubricant Chance

meant to be...

     grabbed with both hands.
           one can 
                 only hold on

Feeling lost and alone, so you know.
I need you back again,
I want it to be like we had it before.
Need you with me tonight.

And Again Tomorrow

And again tomorrow
With purple flowers, 
And the sun above
Or clouds and showers

Another day comes 
To rise and to shine,
More than enough time
To breathe, to feel fine

Between dawn and dusk
A thousand minutes go,
Around and around
In moments so slow

Another night comes
To pause and to rest,
Gives us time to smile
Knowing we did our best

And again tomorrow 
One more

You don't get a second chance

In a world of haste and make believe
where time is a most valuable commodity,
do we really want to miss
chasing rainbows and cuddling kittens,
taking the scenic route and
smelling the roses along our way?

Sometimes a detour is the best shortcut.

The Chance You Get

Take that chance every chance you get,
fall on your face and then forget,
live your life without regret,
take that chance every chance you get.

More risk by far to never make the run,
and lose your dreams one by one,
and forgetting each until you’re done.

Rather rise and embrace each day,
another step on your chosen way,
there’s no better time

Chance Meeting

(“Before the Door”, 2023, original encaustic)

Chance Meeting

Where were you when we met just now
In something of a hub,
Airport terminal or hotel lobby,
As you walked right by 
And our eyes met
Yours growing in shocked amazement
As you exclaimed,
“What are you doing here!?”
And we hugged in warm embrace.

You now long gone
And yet still we meet in transit
Each of

Wind Of Chance

Wind Of Chance 

The billowing wind 
rendered alluring melodies
luring many men
thirsty for his fate
each beholding his cup 
full of frothing lager 
concealing the lethal dregs 
making the jolly man
a hollow being  

To Insanity and Back Again

Insanity and back again
Somethings got to give
Whatever you do
Please don't shout my name
It calls up the demon
In me
We partied when we were young
Had to stop the world from turning
We ran as fast as we could and then faster
You lived for the minute and never thought it all would be gone
Crushing killing
Creative aptitude
Not even thinking of

On the Path Less Traveled by Accident

Did we meet when stars aligned?
Or when fate dragged our paths,
to coincide, to bump together, 
sidled up, side by side, 
by coincidence, in time and space?

Or did we slide into the same path by accident?
Enchanted to dance by chance, 
with happenstance and serendipity,
on a path less traveled?

We met in a deserted park,
in a deserted ghost
