The Unknown Garden

Cinnamalls all in bloom 
Their bright colors eliminate the gloom 
Muffinflies buzzing around 
Bumblesnake rattles a new sound 

The razzle vines love to climb 
They will reach the sky given time 
The Bibiannas all purple, yellow, and red 
Make sure all the birds are feed 

The smell is tantalizing 
Which leaves one fantasizing 
With thoughts romanticizing 
Of evenings scandelizing 

The tigerphant lets off a sneeze 
Due to the pollen in the breeze 
The monkabear hangs from his knees 
As he plays within the trees 

The muskrays are in the sun 
Dancing around and having fun 
The wonkawils have no means 
As they lay within the leaves 

The water reaches the vines 
Feeding flowers and creatures of all kinds 
When the sun is right 
The water sparkles so bright 

This special garden grown just for you 
A perfect place for two 
With all the flowers in bloom 
All covered in the morning dew

The Mountains of Arkansas

The sun raises up over the ridge 
The sky shines a multitude of colors
Pink with a tinge of purple 
That only lasts for a few precious moments

Some mornings the clouds 
Come down from the sky into the fields
Allowing a walk in the mist
Who knew it was possible to walk in the clouds

The fields are filled with nature
Deer feed while tending their fawn
Rabbits hop, coyotes hunt while the roadrunners race around
Watch out for the bear, large cat or the razorback 

The birds are plentiful in their beauty
The red of the cardinals, blue of the jays and yellow of the finches
The sounds of the woodpecker and hummingbirds
The soaring of the hawks, vultures, and eagles

When it rains all run for cover 
The thunder roars, and makes the mountain shake
Lighting strikes a tree with a mighty boom
Fearing the tornado that can come from any place

As the sky clears the sun shines down
The water reflecting off the leaves 
The animals return refreshed 
The rainbow crosses the sky reminding us of God’s promise  

The roads twist and turn, up and down
With drops off to the left and right
Careful as dangers are abound
Deer dash all around

As the day turns to night it becomes total darkness
The sounds of the tree frogs fill the air
In the distance the scream of a small animal
being caught as dinner in the forest

At night the creatures crawl scorpions, spiders, and snakes 
Birds of prey hunt the fields
On the mountain the circle of life takes place 
Survival of the fittest

The sky is clear, and in the darkness
Stars can be seen representing all the constellations 
The stars shoot across the sky and quickly die 
It is amazing the beauty of the sky

Living With the Hard of Hearing

Hello can you hear me
Speaking louder is key
Make sure they see your lips
Talk slow and clear

TV is too loud
Barraged by too much sound
Silence cannot be achieved
Not even a thought can be perceived

Words misconceived
Offense received
Information missed
Miscommunication persist

Effects the young
Effects the old
Problem is ignored
Wishing their hearing was restored

Assistance they need
To help them succeed
As their hearing fades
Thankful for hearing aids

The Harsh Sea

Splash, Crash, Boom 
The clouds go black soon 
The storm approaches 
As the wind reproaches 

The thunder clashes 
The lightning flashes 
The wave appears 
Way to near 

Bamm, Slam, Creer 
The boat is rocked the end is near 
The men dive off with a mighty splash 
Listen as the rocks and boat crash 

Bubble, Bubble, Bubble 
Looks like trouble 
As the shark emerges from the blue 
Hunting humans that have no clue 

Holding on to debris to keep afloat 
Praying to God and losing hope 
The fin is drawing near 
You can smell the fear 

Luckily help was at hand 
Which assisted them to the land 
Dripping water on the sand 
Making sure everyone’s at hand

Angry Dog

The angry dog is big and mean
He is strong, agile and lean
His bark is high and gives a fright
As it carries through the night

Touch his food and see him raise
His attack is a surprise
Jaws a blazing, eyes of steel
As he is fighting for his meal

But love he has for his own
His humans, his pack, his home
He paces and snarls and wants to run free
Just so he can follow me.

To the one who is a threat 
Meeting him they will regret
An ambulance will soon be seen
If anyone ever threaten me

His daily hug and kiss
Every morning is my wish
He has much love and a heart of gold
My Shepherd, My Love, My Very Own

Loving Care

Caregiving is not for the weak
Giving care trying not to be bleak
Medicine changes, pill bottles around
Changing of diapers without even a frown

Pain and regret
As they forget
Memory lapses and confusion
Sometime life is an illusion

Sometimes the routine causes stress
All you want is some rest
Many doctors to see
Thank God for the nurses helping me

Hope for the best
Pray for the rest
As we treasure each day
Before they slip away

You know what they want to say
As you help them through the day
Even though they withdraw
You know that they love you

Birds of Beauty

As the cardinal streaks across the sky
Leaving a trail of brilliant red as it flies
The woodpecker methodically
Peaks away at the distant tree 

The mighty bluebird looking royal in blue
Taking over the feeder it rules
Hidden in the trees
Is the black crows of three

The doves can be heard chirping
As they gather in a grouping
The finches small but mighty
Take the berries from the trees lightly

Soaring high in the sky
The bald eagles fly
The hawk screeches
Grabbing pry as it reaches

The bats soaring through the night
Scaring those who see it in flight
The owls are asking who
Are they speaking to you

When suddenly the hummingbird appears 
Hovering near to my ears
Sending me to a place of calm and peace
Feeling my soul release

Eyes of Madness

Have you ever looked into the eyes of madness
Someone who brings only sadness
Seen into the eyes of someone with no conscience
They are usually obnoxious

A person with madness in their eyes
Live their lives in disguise
In their own reality
Justifying actions of insanity

Rape, murder, extortion, reality is distortion
Arson, kidnapping, theft, till there is nothing left
Never test the anger
As they can be an enchanter

Psychopaths and Sociopaths
Mental illness is their wrath
They travel through the light
Causing trouble in the night

Some victims are rich, some are poor
Both the young and the old
Jails not the answer, sanitariums don’t mend
For most of them, they will suffer in the end

Pride and Integrity

Pride and Integrity
Bring clarity
To your inner self
Known as myself

What is your pride worth
It exists from birth
It is self love
A gift from above

Pride can be your inner voice
When you have to make a choice
It can make you weak
When happiness you seek

Pride can bring happiness
Pride can bring sadness
It can lead to regret
Hoping to forget

When pride is your guide
It is a bad ride
Causing you to lose
Totally confused

Take pride in the positive
Learning to forgive
Take pride in your family
Living together happily

Taking the road less traveled
No longer unraveled
As pride is restored again
Thanks to God, Amen

Lets Party

The keg is flowing
The music is loud
Rocking and Rolling
Is affecting the crowd

The circle is formed
Smoke fills the room
While everyone laughs 
Talking the night through

Sitting by the fire, cuddling by the flames
Stories of truth, stories of fame
Remembering those that have died
Sometimes with tears in our eyes

Friends for life through the good and the bad
Glad for all the good times we had
Life goes fast, as we grow old
But memories like these never grow old
