What Are We Now

What is it that makes us what we are?
Is it the air, the wind or a pear.

We are only a part of life that we are produced in.
The production of life is in God's hand.

We take what God has given us and mold it into something great or something sad.
The time given to us is not a time to be sad but a time to be glad that we exist.

So what are we now you ask?
We are each our own person with a place in society with our own task.

We are what we eat so we are told.
Think about that for a minute and remember what you ate.

Remember our mind eats everything around us even when it is not food.
What are we now is it only a dream.

My Boys

My boys are full of energy which comes from the essence of life.
New and Vibrant like a plant sprouting out into the light.

What they do will always amaze me.
For they do not know what lays ahead for thee.

Their eyes glowing for new adventures.
Their minds thinking of great adventures.

For the adventures they have early in life.
I hope will help them to strive throughout their lives without the strife.

My boys so thoughtful and kind.
I hope I do not lose my mind.

Mind Altering

The time has come to face the facts.
Let's stop getting ourselves off track.

Doctors push the drug that helps them the most.
While it makes us feel like a ghost.

We know that we sometimes feel a little off.
Let's hope we do not get knocked off.

Some of the drugs that they do give us.
They only seem to hide us.

Mind altering is what the doctors will not say.
Because they do not want to scare us away.

Drugs of the mind alerting kind have no hope.
It might as well be legal dope.

What Is Wrong

What is wrong with everyone?
Are we so caught up with ourselves we do not notice everyone else?

Have we all gone out for some air?
Only to see that no one is there.

Why am I the only one that sees? 
There is more to the world than just me?

We only have one life to live you see.
So why do we act like we have two or three?

For you see the life we live is not what we want to see.
We only want to live in a fantasy.

She is brown

She is brown sweet and kind.
She is the apple of his eye.

When she sees him it is like they have known each other for life
If she were human she would be his wife.

Here she goes again waiting for his return.
The light she has for him is a bond for life.

Why God made dogs I cannot fathom.
Though dog and man together is like freedom.

They both relieve each others stress.
I am glad to see brown at her best.

Oh she is brown, sweet and kind.
He says her love is one that is blind.

There

The day has come to see.
A life worth living is with me.
 You fought your way through this life searching the sea.
Yet you were just looking for me.
I could feel your existence here and there.
The excitement you could almost see in the air.
Oh that light you shine on the world.
Is what I was looking for.
There is no one else in the world for me.
For your light that shines is what I see.
The light I see is pure as a puppy.
Life exudes from you as sweet as taffy.
We finally meet and your light surrounds me.
Life's light is sweet especially when you are there with me.
