A Father Is

A true character
Who replenishes all of our needs 
That holds us best and picks you up
Even at your weakest moments
So that we do not go hungry 
Or sleep unclothed 
He who gives us the ability to find strength
When setbacks are apart of life 
I was taught to value myself 
And the solid lessons in limitations that this journey would bring 
He believes the depth in his being
This creation would never be broken
Because an emphasis on fathering would never be absent
I am a creation in the making 
To measure up to something 
Which he molded me 
Until I know all he knows 
He is exactly what he is needed to be
A father, who will die to protect
A man with nothing to lose
One with no words
That speaks so much volume
And a smile in trouble
Who gathers strength from distress
To place his family as the most important thing in his life
He is  cautious with the actions and decisions 
He makes so he won't have to be responsible for their pain
He is all

Hope Springs

We live among the serpents of this world groundless
Inherit the world with many obstacles as expressions emerge soundless
Life is drenched with acid rain
Soon only the trees would be caught in the cycle of endless pain
Lost in the thought that no one needs vision
To see what's being displayed of prolonging conditions
They throw us the torch and the flame is gone
Seasons carry on but the damages live on
What is the world without an end?
Humanity's impact revolving changes that impend 
Nourish our future and nourish our brains
Those words transform into found strength to a structured branched chain
I saw all parts of myself within everyone
The destruction of curiosity intending to outrun
Sitting before teachers hearing voices within my head
Put forth into action rather than leaving things unsaid
Hope springs the world's hardest game
But pursuing life in color will be the painted frame

Butterfly

I endure the presence of caterpillars while it delegates in such power 
If I wish to become acquainted with the butterfly I'd treat it like a self propelled flower
Seeking life from barren ground
There's one that holds destiny that'll soon be found
Never could imagine one suffer on; in earthly fate
Although there's evil that surrounds us in bitter pain of agony hate
That would break the bonds to breathe and live
And then we'd be reborn again with the option to forgive
Find that God that goodness brings
A chance for change the hope of wings
As minutes pass by,the butterfly landed to my nose
She was as delicate as silk and bright as a rose
I heard the flutters to my ears
And yet the warmth in great saturation lingered and never disappeared 
Let it feel safe and gravitate it to me like iron shavings
That extra daylight that would bring in daylight savings 
A fallen blossom returning to home 
I'd treasure with me forever and keep it as my own

Soar

As other birds seek shelter from an oncoming storm
He is not superior but grand and always fly's above it 
To see colors and shapes but never in its form 
We enter the highest consciousness of our journey to never quit 
If your falling,spread your wings and dive 
To hear another soul, it keeps us focus and steady to be alive 
To be the eyes of an eagle
You can never underestimate the powers of your vision to change the world 
Never transforming fear into a seagull
It will never have the strength that flap unfurled 
Measuring a man's success on how high he climbs
Is problematic that's common to all
How he bounces back when he hits rock bottom
Will be victory from the rise that he falls
To be a volcano understanding the influence of eruption
To fly and find things that are not in matter 
Is to hear but never hear the sounds of corruption
Pure substances that pervades to over shatter
In the end you would choose
Undaunted by gusts and shaky rails
You become a leader of what you can do 
Never give up and would not fail 
Faith is the flame that eliminates fear 
But the Eagles eyes quickens your step,fly at a level that creates a wide gap to fix the impaired.

Snowman

Surrounded by the air as snow gets sprayed upon my nose like crystal sparks
Never have I ever seen a reindeer so close in headlights creating landmarks
On the windows you can see the road
When it gets dark outside the sky dresses itself in a white dress like gold
Made from silk and yet naked by the eye
And hands get numb and breeze brings cold whereby 
Nothing is there but the timeless thoughts of a winter stare when you see a sled traveling through the air in the mist of a dreamer that flies near
