Thoughts Are Wider Than An Ocean
Never dared to say,
" I love you, sweety. "
Why did I keep all words to myself,
staring at your picture on the shelf?
No night is really warm, I tremble under the sheets,
I long to be close and share those amazing feelings:
thoughts are wider than an ocean bluer than any sky,
being on this side is harder than

'A Wider Beam' - Reconstructed
Night after night war darkens our screens
Women and children’s cries and screams
Truth enters our living rooms, or so it seems
~ History projects a wider beam

A Wider Beam
Night after night, images flicker on the tube
Horrific images of ‘the enemy’ dying
Dying ‘Agent-Orange’ deaths
~ Seems America can do no right…
Night after night, images darken the screen

Wider Wider Wider
I washed my hands with sanitizer
Before I opened up my mind.
Wider! My muse screamed.
WIDER! WIDER! WIDER!
Everyone was staring at me.
Is this wide enough? I asked her.
I was feeling self-conscious now.
Having never been in this restaurant before.
And now knowing I will never be back.

A Wider View
Night roads widen,
dream paths spread their branches.
The Sandman is hobbled
and can only watch.
A tethered mind has spread
fledgling wings.
What appears to happen
behind sleepwalking eyes
is viewed from a fish-eyed drone -
a stretched panoramic overview.
Am I travelling or unrolling
a future map?
Major arteries become sea-lanes
a melting landscape
for the soul of the soul of the soul.
In a distant radio speaker

A Wider View
Fire and smoke billows
in dreams through pillows.
Such’s our reaction,
when fear gains traction.
Demons of our mind
grip us in their bind,
unless we release
fear and be at ease.
Game’s not black and white
or terror of night
but in unity;
world’s one entity.
Beyond line of sight,
we feel life’s alright.
Our hypnotic spell
bodes all is not well.
Selective goodness,
not one with oneness,
is but delusion;
dead

With Wider Eyes
In the pools, reflections , colours, gleam
Like watercolour paintings in a stream
Another world, a mirror to our lives
A way to extricate us from the cave
People have distinctive motions,shapes
When vision’s poor the curve, the back, display
I recognise you not by face alone
But by the pictures you make in the rain
Wandering down the avenues and

Trump's Mouth Grows Wider and Wider
Trump's Mouth Grows Wider and Wider
What I recently have heard from an insider,
Trump's mouth is growing wider and wider;
Totally out of hand;
Hard to understand;
We are always greater when God is guider.

Both Wider and Big
Both Wider and Big
For writing poems have been having big thirst
Always enjoy typing up most recent one first
While it always will remain fresh in my mind
Am so sorry had to leave the others behind.
As soon as this very one up I finally type
You no longer will have to go ahead and gripe
My two cats are

The Width Is Wider
the width is wider than the span of life--
time to let go!
life is wider than our span on earth
