Lessons From Cory

Cory swore off the needle, 

did his best for a while

to keep his beasts at bay, 

but @ thirty years old he gave in one more time, 

and death quickly came to snatch him away 

If you play in a viper pit,

can't be surprised when you get bit 

Best not to test it, and on that, 

that's all I have to say

Love Oasis

To me this is one of the best descriptions ever

of what love is like:

Like there’s a thirsty man in a desert thinking he may die

but then out of nowhere, what does he find?

An oasis running through a forgotten paradise

& that sweet oasis truly saves his life

Anything You Need

Jamie cussed the weather, 

there was black ice on the road outside,

she told her husband 

"If it doesn't get better 

We're gonna freeze to death tonight"

The wind was howling louder than she'd 

ever heard in her life, as if trying to mock her,

& that frostiness sliced like a knife

Her husband went to bring in some fresh firewood, they sparked it up and soon the warmth was feeling oh,so good 

She said "Thank you for going out, and doing that for me"

Her husband said, "You know I've always got your back, I'll do anything you need."

Sweet Love

Oh my dearest, darling bride, 
you make my day complete, 
and you make me smile inside, 
and my heart skip a beat 

Your laughter is my melody, 
your heart's beat is the sweetest song,
With you, I've found my harmony, 
right where I belong.

Once You Set A Poem Free

Once you set a poem free,

it’s out for all the world to see

So make sure when you’re writing

That you’re giving your everything

This can never be said enough, I think,

Always strive to be all that you can be

Lost Years

It's a sad state of affairs,

People habitually stuck with 

noses in their phones 

Before they know it, they are old, 

and precious years,long lost, have flown

Norma -A Story Poem-

Norma was a little girl lost, 

she came from a broken home.  

Her mother was prone to madness, 

fits of delusion,rage, and sadness. 

Though her early life was a portrait of devastation,

Norma rose above it all and she found sweet salvation.

Cottage By The Sea

In her younger years she loved the bright
and bustling nights in New York City
They made her feel so wild and free
To her they looked stunningly pretty

These days though, 
she’s getting old,
she’s pushing 93,

& her new idea of paradise 
is a quiet beautiful cottage
by the sea

To The Common People

This is to the humble barbers, humble farmers,

average Joannas & Joes

who give their all, day in day out,

but who most will never know

You all deserve recognition,

whether people know you by name or not

Thank you for everything you do,

It really means a lot

Play Back

If you could watch your life rewind

& then play back, what would you find?

Have you been a person through whom
light and Love shined?
