Yosemite

Carved by the hand of God you are
              awesome, heavenly, take my breath 
              away, Yosemite.
              I worked and lived in Yosemite when   
              I was 18 1/2 till I was 23.
              How was I to be so blessed? some
              would say I'm lucky I guess.

              What an impact you had on me,
              for I was young broken and, lost
              till you opened my eyes, you filled
              my heart.
  
              You healed my heart, you healed 
              my soul with all the beauty, the magic,   
              that you behold.

              Your sunrises, sunsets, waterfalls,
              your  meadows, wildlife, granite                
              walls of Half Dome, El Capitan, Clouds
              Rest, and the Camp 4 climbers they were               
              the best.

              The people, the memories, that I had made
              will last me my lifetime I will take them to 
              my grave.

              Now when I die I have just one request,
              please spread my ashes and, lay me to 
              rest, in the place I love the best, my heaven
              on earth Yosemite. 

              So I thank you Yosemite, for the Kodak
              moments, and memories, that you truly
              gave to me.  
              
              You healed my heart, you healed my soul,
              with all the beauty, and magic, that you behold.

Dysfunctional Families

Dysfunctional  families
                              aren't they fun?
                              Dysfunctional  families
                              we all have one.

                              They come in all colors 
                              shapes and, sizes
                              with all their crap 
                              and, all their surprises.

                              They push your 
                              buttons because
                              they can.
                              Dysfunctional families
                              aren't they grand?

                              It's the FUN, in
                              dysfunctional that
                              makes you see, how 
                              much you love, your
                              dysfunctional family.

Logan's Poem To Mom

My mom has tried from the start
              my mom she has a giant heart. 
              She did a good job to raise me 
              right since I was a little tyke.

              She said she will never give up 
              the fight and, keep on trying with
              all her might to save me from my
              destructive life.

              I would be out all night running 
              the streets, doing things I knew
              weren't right getting in trouble,
              getting in fights.

              She wanted me home, she wanted 
              me safe, and she was always making
              me something delicious to eat.

              I didn't care that I was breaking her
              heart or, that my delinquent ways
              were tearing her apart.
                        
              Well I was finally arrested and ended
              up in jail, I am now stuck in this place
              and I tell you it's hell.
             
              Now I see all the bad and, stupid
              things that I've done but, I had no
              remorse then I thought it was fun.
          
              I am now sorry for the things that
              I have done, now I want to be a 
              better person, a better son.

              Even though I am stuck in this 
              place, when I think of my mom
              it puts a smile on my face.
              
              Now the only person who is still
              on my side and, who's still got my
              back is my sweet, big hearted mom,              
              imagine that.

Night Owl

She sit alone most
                                  days, most nights.
                                  Perched in corner
                                  with her pipe.  
                                  Smoking rock she
                                  holds on tight,
                                  only to fade into
                                  the light of the 
                                  flickering candle
                                  she burns so 
                                  bright.

                                  For night owl
                                  know all is not
                                  right,
                                  can't find her way
                                  she won't fight so,
                                  death awaits her
                                  final flight perched
                                  in corner with her
                                  pipe that numbs all
                                  feelings, that wrongs                              , 
                                  all right.

                                 So close the door the
                                 windows now, lock 
                                 them  tight don't make  
                                 a sound and, creep
                                 around quietly if any
                                 should knock you,
                                 can't be to trusting
                                 in your spot.

                                 So, let the tears build
                                 up till your weak in
                                 your knees, and, keep
                                 on smoking to the
                                 wheeze, of the poison
                                 your pipe does breed.

Crown of Favor

The first thing she does 
   when she gets out of bed
   is to place her crown of favor,
   on her head.
 
   Then before she leaves to
    to start her day, she looks
    in her mirror and, begins
    to say.

    I thank you dear god and,
    it's beautiful to see all the
    favor, grace and, blessings 
    that you have given to me.  

    That's why I don't worry 
    with you by my side, you've
    got my back, you always
    provides.       

    It's the crown of favor she places
    on her head, everyday when
    she get out of her bed.

    Her crown of favor is no crown
    of thorns, her crown of favor 
    was a gift from god the day   
    she was born.

The Fortune Cookie

The fortune cookie with it's lovely shape
                     the fortune cookie I  think smells great.
                     I don't like to eat them though it's the 
                     fortune inside I like the most and, the
                     last one I got  said it best, 
                    "I show you doubt to prove that faith exist"

                     Not quite a fortune but, a 
                     message from that man,
                     that God of ours isn't he grand?
                     That was his answer to the questions
                     I had been asking, his sense of humor
                     keeps me laughing.

Mary's Poem

I saw you by the pool today              
                you said you had cancer
                that it was taking your life
                away.
                I didn't know what to say
                I was totally shocked,
                I was totally blown away.

                When you left to go inside,
                I hung my head I began to cry.   
                My heart was breaking
                I felt awful inside cause,
                I had been tripping
                over my pride.

                I was so stupid,
                to blind to see
                what a friend
                you were to me.

                Mary, I wrote you this poem
                to tell you that you will be
                missed dearly and,in my 
                heart and, in my prayers
                is where I'll remember and, 
                keep you through the years.
 
                God's plans are bigger then 
                us as we all know but, that
                still doesn't make it any easier
                to go.
                      
                Mary, you know that you won't
                be alone, for your love Carlos                 
                will be right by your side holding
                your hand, as you both walk
                together into God's promiseland
                Heaven. Thank you Mary, for being
                my friend.

Destructive Friends

Up all night
                             into the dawn
                             pipe in hand
                             till it's gone,

                             like to play this
                             game.

                             Now it gets weird,
                             it gets strange,
                             feeling numb,
                             feeling deranged.
                             Lurking and, 
                             creeping with
                             the shades
                             pulled drawn
                             day is here 
                             though we're

                             next day.

                             When we
                             scrape to
                             find it there,
                             just an illusion
                             do not care,

                             We're not misfits
                             come look and, see
                             Were just avoiding

Life Seeds

Your life is like a garden
                   you reap what you sow
                   so carefully plant your
                   seeds of life cultivate,
                   water, tend to them
                   right and, oh at a
                   abundance they will                                                  
                   bring to your life.
     
                   Let also the seeds of
                   your life be of honor, 
                   and integrity and, the
                   random acts of kindness
                   you show will come back
                   to you in folds.           
           
                   For it is how you have                
                   treated others that will
                   matter in your final hours                     
                   the gift is truly in giving
                   when giving unconditionally.
   
                   So give a little, give a lot
                   keep on giving full your heart
                   for this is what life needs to 
                   be more about giving to those                                                 
                   who go without.

                   Now do unto others
                   don't even think twice
                   and, count your blessing
                   in your prayers tonight
                   that you were blessed                   
                   with an abundant life.


                           
                   
 



                                

                  
                  
                   
                   
                  .
