Starry Sky

Stars are our nightlights
Glowing and illuminating the dark night
Like a brightly lit flashlight.

Stars come out and play
Twinkling twinkling as they may
Like diamonds strung against the pitch-black night
Shining shining
Until they fade out.

Dui

The car
The party
All runs through my head
The stupid decision to drive
Instead of asking a friend
The tears keep coming
Although I wish to stop
The stupid decision
To drive and not walk.

The road where you wrecked
Was close at heart
Sitting there we wished on stars
Laughed out loud in the dark.
All the memories we shared
Could never compare to
The loved one we lost there.

Shattered glass lay on the side of the road
Where you wrecked that horrible day
Now a beautiful cross gives way
Memories we lost Memories we shared
Give way to you in Heaven somewhere.

Bitter Cold

What a cold January day,
The frost lays on the ground like a blanket
Not even the determined woodpecker
Has come out to tap on the side of the house.
All is quiet in this small town
The blackbirds pick at the unturned dirt
Hoping to find some kind of food
The sun pokes its head through the clouds
And cast light on the frost bitten earth.

Child of Mine

How innocent are thee?
Sleeping in your crib
So peacefully

Children look up 2
Watching everything you do
How sweet it is to watch a child grow
And mature

To buying their first car
And celebrating graduation
Their first prom
The day they settle down
In a nice home
And have kids.

Child of mine
How sweet is thee?
To watch u grow up and get married
How proud to say that I’m your mother today.

Alabama

What a place 2 be
So beautiful so majestic are thee
Flowers bloom in the meadows
Harvesters in the fields
Cows mooing in the pasture
As the sun shines over the hills

Country roads that lead to no where
Lil log cabins sitting there
Fog a dew cover the night air
Like a thin blanket hung up there

Dogs:Simple Creatures

Aubie the dachshund is sitting at the door whining.
I wonder what he wants..I get up and walk angrily towards the door
He continues his annoying whining and simply turns around
I walk back to my seat and he just sits,and stares
Letting out a slight whimper here and there.
He doesn’t want out I offered that
Could he want a treat?
Yes.I walk to the closet to where the treat are kept and 
Hand him one.
This sparks excitement in milo..who then wants one also.
Aubie,such a enthusiastic and nosy animal
But most puppies are I suppose.
Always into something..
But also a friendly and loving creature
Never meeting a stranger
Dogs r such simple animals  
Wanting nothing more than love and affection
Dogs are very similar to us humans
All we want and need is food,love.and affection

January Warmth

The leaves are whirling in the wind
Clouds a stirring
What a warm January day.
The squirrels have come out to play
Running and scurrying all the way.
The sun is hiding somewhere
Somewhere way up high

The warmth of a January Day
Warms the heart in everyway
Trees in motion swaying and
Swooping with a notion.

The Mighty Oak

What a mighty artwork of nature
So tall and strong
Birds perch on its stout branches
And sing heavenly songs
Squirrels scamper along its
Hardy trunk
Gathering nuts I suppose
Its branches full of green
Cast shadows on the most likely things

It’s leaves turn golden, red, and orange
What a delightful sight,
The tree so bitter and bare
Doesn’t cast a shadow here or
There
It shivers in the cold night air
Hoping for spring hoping for change
To gather its green leaves
And cast shadows once again

Sweet Love

Your eyes are like a ocean
Deep and blue
My love for you
Is heartfelt and true

With you I’ll always be
Standing and waiting beside thee.
I’ll honor you forever
Forever and a day
Till the sun sets
And the clouds fade away.

I want to lie in your arms
And sleep there
Wake to your beautiful smile
And stare into your love
Shot eyes

I dream of you every night
In my dreams and by my side
You hold a special place in my
Heart.
I place no one can tear apart.

Ocean Delight

A mass of blue
Against a sunlit sky
Seagulls fly
Whooping and whipping with the tide
Sailboats glide
Glide they may into that
Sunlit bay
Waves crash on the shore
And hit the wet slick rocks
Clashing and clashing with all their might

The sand feels like grits beneath my feet
Coating them and holding tight
The fresh water tickles my toes as I walk closer
To its shores.
The soft breeze of the ocean
Brushes threw my long brown hair
As I watch the waves capsize over there

The sun glistens on the waters
Twinkling twinkling
Oh what a beautiful sight
