Your First Tee

Ever so silent wind with its calm 
the nature of the day is brilliant
 
Anticipation of performance consumes your 
thoughts one two three and the spot light shifts
The weight of everyone’s eyes seem to mushroom 
on your approach and the most minute sounds 
become ever so present.

Hoping your body will remember 
you take your last gasp of air 
All you can do at this point 
is pray for something respectable 
As your eyes ascend and gaze 
down the fairway you exhale 
For this time you have escaped

Ever so silent wind with its calm 
the nature of the day is brilliant

Candle Light

Used by all to see the sights 
Centuries of power cutting through darkness 
Hand in front of flame as you walk carefully 
with candle light.

Strike a match lighting each wick 
The cakes a glow celebration of another year 
Make a wish and blow out candle light.

A tub of warmed water and cloth relieving the 
day’s stresses, light switch to off room's a glow 
from candle light.

A romantic moment dinner made with passion 
Overcome with anticipation your guest arrives 
The wine is poured dinner for two by candle light.

It’s festive times traditional songs we sing 
House to house we go that eve with carol 
Lyrics flickering from candle light.

At times of need and reflection found at the shrine 
We kneel down in prayer with heavy thought and hart 
Comes your offering through candle light.

A gathering a vigil a remembrance of one’s place 
A single flame is lit, down the line it goes 
As the crowd grows brighter showing unity and 
compassion from all through candle light.

Celebrations mood grief and passion come to life 
giving each moment deeper meaning 
in the presence of candle light.

A New Season

Change noticeable in the air  
shortened days give way to light
Whisper cool days deny winters 
hold, fleeing the fight
Juvenile greens transforming 
the colorless scape
Familiar sounds return 
remarkably on que
A new season is here 
arrives with an unfading scent
Gone too long is the time 
as spring governs

Muse

Most of what I sees a flee
                            From time to time shear poetry
                           Eloquence embrace the very few
                             Linguist challenges the all too
                           Self- therapy to read and create
                            A poets mind at ease or crazed
                      Weather it’s skipping stones of reflection
                      or invigorated enlightenment. The mania
                       of many emotions compel consideration
                       crafting a poets passion laying down life

Wings of a Soul

Wings of a soul check up
on the
Gone from here for them to see
Perched up high upon a tree
Wings of a soul check up
on the
These souls of wing I do believe
swoon by at times while we
reminisce of the
Glimpse to the sky for one to see
Wings of a soul check up
on the 
Thoughts of lost loved ones pass
through our day gazing out the 
window of what use to be
Maybe just maybe next time
you’ll see wings of a soul
checking up on the

Picture Box

For some strange reason the need to see
a look through the box of what use to be
Stacks of time some neatly arranged 
a glimpse back at lives revealing times changed
What seems like yesterday can this be
time stamp on the back says May 83’ 

Look here’s one of gramps sitting in his chair
did I really wear that sweater by the way nice hair
Bundles of the kids when they were younger
is this you as a baby looks like your brother

Digging through reveal pictures of rare
a heavy gaze of thought can’t help but stare
Of more innocent times when I was younger
come black and white photos of my father and mother

How quickly it takes to look through the years
most pictures of joy some bring tears
Good for now until the next time I need
a look through the box of what use to be
