Sherri

The woman that took me under her wing
This woman gave me everything

She gave me hope
Which was the only thing that kept me afloat

She gave me courage I never had
It kind of makes me sad
This woman most of all gave me love and understanding

No matter what went wrong she was right by my side
Even if she couldn't help she made a point to try

I want this woman to know how I feel
I want this woman to know I am for real

She is my mind and my soul
This woman is my Aunt Sherri

In a Flash

The sun shines
Close your eyes
Full of so much light
They cry
Pupils dilate
Start to infatuate
There's no wait
Open your eyes
See the world so bright
A happy sigh
Watch the trees go by
Full of life

Father

Oh father why didn't you come when I needed you
In my time of need trust me there were more than a few

I needed you when I felt pain
But from that I only gained

I felt like I was in the dark
But acted as if life was a walk in the park

I want to meet the man I look just like
I want to know the man that was once in my life

I want you to hug me and tell me it's all right
And please never ever leave my sight

I needed you to catch my falling tears
 And to show me to have no fears
 Father I wish you were here

I want you to be the one to walk me down the isle
I want you at the hospital when I have my first child
 
I need you right by my side
   Don't you understand it's just like you've died

I don't know where you are
 I don’t know if you’re far

Just meet me half way
That would make my day

Oh father just know I miss you
And will always love you so

My Sunshine

My sunshine brightens my day
In each and every way
He is strong and very bold
When he shines you will fold
My sunshine is so sweet
He is what makes our life complete
When he smiles
You can tell he's his daddies child
My sunshine is so smart
He has a big piece of my heart
I love my sunshine so 
He wears the color of gold
From the very first time I seen you
I prayed to God is this true
I really do have you
I had my first son
Life has only begun
Just know your special see
Because one day you'll be
A bright young man 
Who understands
Life is in your hands

Life

Some people think that life is a walk in the park
Others feel as if they’re in the dark

You have parents buying 16 yr. olds cars
And you have 30 yr. olds working two jobs
And have nothing

Teenage girls getting abortions
Teenage girls having babies and no where to go

Kids doing drugs and selling them
Parents getting fooled and paying for their child's death

Not realizing that the world is corrupt
We all made it this way

Kids stabbing one another
Or shooting your own mother

Sound crazy maybe
Look around and you'll see
This is not how it's supposed to be

Babies not being fed
Babies lying there dead

What you do not know 
No this is a show

This is real 
People do kill

Kids sitting behind bars
Why, cause they went to far

Dear Child

Inside I feel you
Watching my belly move
A human life that’s true
Aiden Gage
Starts a new page
The book of life inlay
I can’t wait till the day
Labor room
Leaving your cocoon
The hours draw not soon
The sun leaves comes the
Moon
Black hair
Cold and bare
Skin wrinkled and fare
For you I care
18 years
Grown is what I fear
No more baby will draw near
When you turn adult my eyes
Leak tears

The Wave

You wave
I wave
The music starts to play
In the hot middle of May
The Wave
The notes soar high
As you go riding by
I look to wave hi
You look back with a sigh
Why?
You don't wave 
I don't wave
The music it plays
It's the hot end of May
Steal nobody waves

The River

The river runs wild
An orphan child
Bottom rock tile
Through each mile
Trees along the bank
To hide and play a prank
Fishing boat cranked
To life here’s our thanks
Mud in between toes
Dirty stained clothes
Bait the fishing poles
Fun, fun, fun
Dry off in the sun
Its dark night has come
The river runs calm
Smoothing lip balm
Cool sweaty palms
Nice sweet mom
Time to go home
Sit down read a poem!

Over Done, Just One

My head is about to explode
Get a grip and take hold
My body feels old
A story never told
Gritting my teeth tight
Time to catch the next flight
No reason that's right
Everyone's out of sight
Fingers tremble so
Too many loads
My mind takes its toll
Watch how it blows
My face covered by my hands
Watch the bright stars dance
Eyes glisting in a trance
Took just one glance
A wish is asked
Always this, always that
Just one come true that's all I ask!

Twice As Much Shine

My sunshine opens his eyes
Not once but twice
Beautifully bright
Twice as much light
His long lashes flutter
Mimicking his older brother
God made them to have each other
Not a one has to suffer
Tender but wild
Twice as much smile
Dear sweet child
Shining so mild
Could this be?
You’re mine to keep
God gave two sons to me
I give thanks to the
Yet to know 
How life flows
I love you so
You'll understand
Daddies little man
Take bubba's hand
Together you both will stand
