Mind of a Serial Killer

I have a thrill and a high profile skill
I must have dominance I will get your full confidence
I crave for lust even though you disgust
I control all things with you as you go on a stroll
I will make you bow down to me this will be your downfall
I am very intelligent as you become very diligent
I will stalk you as you start to feel distraught
I'm just your neighbor, or maybe a co-worker
Do You Feel Me? Do You Want More?

Blossoms and Bubbles

In a magical forest among the purple ice plants
     the queen fairy floats by inside a bubble and chants

     "Come to me all fairy lights and play softly among your flutes"
     hundreds of fairies fly to her in a great multitude they swoop

     Soft music from the fairies make the flowers start to sway 
     bending low and high reaching for the sky they splay

     The flowers bouncing each bubble with a fairy inside 
     giving each a beautiful and peaceful joy ride.

Mind of a Serial Killer Ii

I see her as she starts to approach toward me
carrying roses for her special day
her mind in an hypnosis state not aware this is the closest I've been to her
as I start to forbear from her

I have watched her for days and days have become weeks
she is not meek but 'oh' so, so sweet
my heart beats a thousand beats in the anticipation to come
with my new techniques just for her that will occur

The echoes in my mind talk to me as I get to close to her
and warns me not to impose or I may become exposed
I will silently watch her for now and I give her my vow
you are mine my sweet divine!

Do you feel me? Do you want me?

Sister Please Forgive Me

We were both so young full of spirit and fun
She's the Indian I'm the Cowgirl as we move along the ground just fooling around
Running through the house attacking each other with laughter and joy trying to be coy

We see the rifle with no knowledge of great threat
Just giving us a peak with nothing to regret
My sister grabs it first and play shoots me but I'm quick and hold a might sway
I'm a strong cowgirl aiming to attack
I snatch the rifle from the Indian as she starts to retract
                  I AIM-- I SHOOT--
                        BANG!

My breathing has stopped but I'm not aware
My ears are ringing 
Do I run and hide do I start screaming?
For death I do not know and everything is now so slow
Is she just sleeping or can I hear her weeping?

Mama where are you? You were just ten steps below but you do not show

My sister must be sleeping a blanket will help her weeping
Gently I cover her but she doesn't seem to know
Her long brown hair now has an odd red glow

I'm only a child but my mind is going wild
My tears of fear blind me as I fall to the ground

Many days have passed me as I have grow old
but I can still remember her grave with the Angel stone.

The Eagle Weeps Tribute To September 11th

Bold and beautiful she soars high
               her wings towards the open sky
            September the 11th, a day of mar
               to see the damage from afar
               her eyes filled with tears
              Her voice tremors and swears,
            "THIS NATION I HOLD SO DEAR
        THE WEIGHT ALONE I CANNOT BARE"!

               Her wings stretched out to soar
               she attempts to wrap the wage of war
               in a sullen sense of grief
               she weeps and soars to a place of peace
              In a soft voice she sobs,
            "THIS NATION I HOLD SO DEAR
          THE WEIGHT ALONE I CANNOT BARE"!

               From within the darkness a light appears
               and takes away the feeling of fear
               behold her eyes she sees a sign
               of life alive and glory from high
               men of color, armor and pride
               upon their nest they work in stride
               red, white, blue with the stars of night
               emerges from the deepest of fright
            With outstretched wings and a loud voice she cries,
          "THIS NATION I HOLD SO DEAR
         THE WEIGHT ALONE I DO NOT BARE"!

Halloween and the Yellow Rose

The day my mother was taken from me 'Halloween'
     fifty she had just turned the golden years she so much yearned
     
     Left partially in a river her body broken and bruised
     hidden from sight alone on a many twilight

     Painfully I searched for days to weeks and on
     knowing a homicide had occurred in the early morning dawn

     A man in a drug induced state with no heart of grace 'Winsette' his name
     has left me with a lifelong of memory and pain
   
     At times in my heart for him I would wish to destroy
     all the evil thoughts for him I felt I would enjoy

     But I have learned to forgive so I could liberate my soul
     even though he now walks the streets on parole

     So on Halloween night there is no candy to give
     only a memory of a mother I have lost instead

     As I take the long walk to my mother's headstone
     I lay a single yellow rose and a sweet candy kiss upon her head.

Dedicated to: My Mother 1939-1989  Never forgotten on Halloween Night

Just Within Reach

The sudden fear of my husband's massive heart attack
doing everything I can to counteract
just within reach crying I screech

I'm by his bed in intensive care wanting to reach in
and stroke away his fears
just within reach nothing works for my speech

Wanting to massage his heart but the doctors
only let me stand by and watch
just within reach his heart moves and stretch

The shock of the paddle upon his soul
even outside I long to enfold
just within reach my hands out stretched

His spirit I can't let go even if I see a heavenly glow
I beg it to flow back to his body until old age we both outgrow
just within reach a bet with God I wage

His body so weak he's barely holding on 
but he hears my soft voice and a vision of my face
just within reach he touches my hand and besiege

To my husband who is with me today
nothing is out of reach if you have strength and pray.

Big Foot and I

Deep in the hills of Kentucky while picking strawberries from a patch
I hear a deep moan and a groan not to far from where I am at

Rising up to take a peep my fear making me start to sweat
I see a big lump of fur with two black eyes looking back but no sign of a threat

On his back he rolled and stretched his size at least eight feet long 
with a jester of his hands he gave a wave for me to come along

Slowly as I approached my curiosity over riding to be refrained
I get a good long sniff of the stench from this beast who is so strange

Nearing close to him he sits up with a groan placing his arms
on his knees seeming quite appeased

Slowly I sit a few feet from him his eyes watching closely  
not realizing my basket of strawberries sit between him and me

His eyes have a look of sadness always alone it would seem
scared of people who always want a picture to brag and say he's been seen

With a soft little moan he points to his mouth 
a strawberry I give him without any form of doubt

A soft touch of our hands of no fear we now understand
eating our strawberries on this sunny day as if it were all planned

It's been years now but every May and June
I have a dinner date with me and my best friend I now call 'Sam'

The years have aged us both but we have come to understand
that so many creatures on earth have been so misunderstood.

Soul Collector

We are all collectors of love that for eternity will feed the soul

     When ONE love has passed from earth it's just a memory that brings days of hurt

     When WE have passed on from earth in heaven our souls marrow into one

           Our essence no longer shy.

My Daughter and Son-In -Law

So beautiful they are in their hearts soul and mind
Sweet laughter and logic they will never leave behind

Each one as unique as a precious gem
Of a special love that only they can give

Their minds on an endless flight
Will always soar high and out of sight

As the stars start to light the sky at night
and you see a star flash that has gone by

Remember the love that I give you
To my daughter and son who will always be one.

T Reams   for my sweet daughter Amber and son in law Adam
