Song Bird's Melody

As the birds seem to be singing for me 
I quietly sit in sweet serenity 
I sit with warm sunshine on my face 
I float and drift to a far off  place 

I quietly sit in sweet serenity 
I listen to the song bird's melody 
I float and drift to a far off place 
I am reminded of God's constant  Grace 

I listen to the song bird's melody 
As I'm witnessing God's Divinity 
I am reminded of God's constant Grace 
My worries with hope are replaced 

My worries with hope are replaced 
I sit with warm sunshine on my face 
I'm finally gaining much needed clarity 
As the birds seem to be singing for me

Baseball

B ats balls bases shaped like a diamond 
A merica's favorite past-time being played 
S luggers hitting those home runs 
E ating hotdogs peanuts and crackerjack 
B ases loaded a grandslam 
A ll Star break in mid-July 
L obbing strikes over home plate 
L ove to watch the Boys of Summer play the game

Trillium Grandiflorum

Oh sweet Trillium Grandiflorum 
Spring's most majestic ephemeral blooms 
I wait all Winter for the joy you bring 
Anticipating the moment I see you in Spring 
Emerging from last Autumn's fallen leaves 
You spread out under the woodland trees 
In my woods you bloom a sea of white 
To my eyes you are such a delight 
Standing tall with stately grace 
Your blossoms put a smile on my face 
By your snowy white petals you are crowned 
Your beauty by all should be renowned 
But alas your loveliness will soon go away 
I will have to wait to see you another day 
My heart will keep the memory until next Spring 
Again I will anticipate the joy you bring

Camfires and S'Mores

Two weeks of summer camping we spent 
Helping mom and dad pitch the tent 
Sweet memories of campfires and s'mores 
Enjoying time in the great outdoors 

Walking the trails on nature hikes 
Around the campground riding our bikes 
Sing alongs around the campfire 
Hot cocoa and a kiss before we retire 

Giggling 'cause we couldn't sleep 
Telling each other secrets to keep 
Rising to the smell of pancakes on the griddle 
Searching for the right stick to whittle 

Hunting the woods for little treasures 
Pinecones,leaves and a couple of  bird feathers 
Go to the beach water splashing 
Smiles for the camera we were flashing 

Packing the car time to head home 
Didn't want to leave we all groan 
But we have memories of campfires and s'mores
Enjoying time in the great outdoors

        - C.A.Saputo xoxo 

Some of my fondest memories as a child were the two weeks we spent camping every summer!  :)

Rose Colored Glasses

I see you through rose colored glasses 
And that's why I give you so many passes 
I don't see any of your imperfections or flaws 
The person I see puts me in such awe 

I see you as absolute pure perfection 
And I know it's just my heart's perception 
But sometimes the heart sees what the eyes can't see 
It sees all the right and let's all the wrong be

I see all the things you have conquered and overcame 
All the reasons you are the person you became 
I see the person you can be; the one I know you are
To me you are an illuminating bright shiny star 

To me you are as bright as the sun 
When I 'm around you I don't see anyone 
So these rose colored glasses I must wear 
Because If didn't there'd be too much glare 

                -C.A.Saputo xoxo

Riding Route 66 With the Wind On Our Faces

The bike was loaded and packed
The duffle bag strapped to the rack
The air was crisp when we started out at dawn
In the early morning hours we were gone 
Down the road with the wind on our faces
Off to visit some far off places 
Headed south down the Mother Road
The bike trailer behind us we towed
We past the St Louis Arch gateway to the west 
What a magnificent site I can atest
Stopped to see the Meramec Caverns 
The Wine Table formation would look great in an old tavern
Through Cuba Missouri we rode the bike at a crawl 
Taking pictures of the murals on the building walls 
We rode through Kansas the shortest part of Route 66
On the Rainbow Curve Bridge we took more pics 
We traveled on to see the Big Blue Whale in Catoosa OK
In Tulsa we camped out at the KOA
Took a break from the open road freedom 
The next day in Clinton we visited the Route 66 Museum 
On to Texas we then rode
Checking out the sites it had to behold 
South of Amarillo saw the Cadillac Ranch 
Got off the bike to walk off a cramp
In Adrian ate at the Midpoint Cafe 
We had rode Old Route 66 halfway 
On America's Highway we motored through New Mexico 
In the distance we eyed Mount Tucumcari's plateau 
Visited Petroglyph National Monument outside of Albuquerque 
The sun setting on the petroglyphs looked spectacularly 
Then we drove past the Continental Divide 
Observed red rock mountains along side 
In Arizona we finally arrived 
By the scenery we were  hypnotized 
In Winslow stood on the corner like the Eagles song 
The memory of that will be lifelong 
Visited the Petrified Forest and Painted Desert 
By this time we were sunburned and weathered 
In Flagstaff we stopped to camp and rest
We spied an eagle tending it's nest 
To Sedona rode the Oak Creek Scenic Drive 
The views and landscape made me feel alive 
Alas our trip was over we had to go home 
But on this trip there were so many memories sown

Dear Menopause

Dear Menopause,

             Thank you for the irregular menstrual flow
             When it will show up;I don't know 
             The wearing of panty liners everyday 
             Because I don't know when Aunt Flo is on her way 
             For these unexpected burning hot flashes 
             If I was paper I would be in ashes
             For the intolerable night drenching perspiration 
             Causing all the restless sleep and agitation 
             For the bloating feeling I get in my tummy 
             Making me feel absolutely miserable and crummy 
             For the extra weight I have on my hips
             Cause I had to eat that whole bag of chips 
             For the stinging statements coming from my tongue 
             All the harsh words that I may have flung 
             For all the intense magnified moodiness 
             The excessive uncontrollable broodiness 
             The overwhelming exaggerated irritability 
             Along with the outright intense hostility 
             The blurting out of what's on my mind
             Even though it may seem a bit unkind 
             For all the hair I see in my bathtub drain 
             The thinning of my dense,thick,beautiful mane
             For the mental and physical lethargy 
             The total fatigue and lack of energy 
             For the dry,itchy,crawling skin
             And this one lone hair upon my chin
             For the need of a daily snooze 
             This lack of energy gives me the blues
             For the memory lapses and difficulty concentrating 
             This forgetfulness is becoming frustrating 
             The constant urgent need to urinate 
             Running to the bathroom before it's too late 
             Menopause you cause all these negative things 
             But still there is some positive you bring
             For helping me voice my unheard point of view 
             Something that I would hardly ever do
             What others think I could now care less 
             Others I no longer need to impress 
             For reminding me as a woman I am strong 
             Reassurance I have needed for so very long 
             For the lesson that I am actually tough 
             That as a female I am more than enough 

                                          -C.A.Saputo xoxo

Comfort Zone

Gotta step out of your comfort zone 
You'll never know if you don't try 
Take a step into the great unknown 
Can't let an opportunity pass you by 

You'll never know if you don't try 
Start to think outside the box 
Can't let an opportunity pass you by 
Do something you find unorthodox 

Start to think outside the box 
Push the limits all the way 
Do something you find unorthodox 
To try but fail is okay 

Push the limits all the way 
Take a step into the great unknown 
To try but fail is okay 
Gotta step out of your comfort zone 

        -C.A.Saputo xoxo

Dear Narcissist

Dear Narcissist, 
            You draw me into your illusion 
Your tender kiss causes such confusion 
I feel your pain and want to lift you up
I let you drink from my soul's precious cup
Depleting my cup of my life water;you keep drinking 
Your self-esteem is expanding;while mine is shrinking 
Your emotions I absorb as mine 
Where do mine begin;I've blurred the line 
I plant the seed of your disrespect 
Give you all you need;what should I expect 
I have a need to heal and you for acceptance 
Thus leads to our unhealthy dependence 
This is how our relationship will be 
Until I from you I find a way to break free 
                         Loving,
                                   Empath

Fireflies In Glass Jars

Remember going to grandpa and grandma's house by the lake 
All the fond memories there we did make 
And I think the fondest by far 
Was catching fireflies in a jar 

We would chase their light in the tall grass 
Trying to catch them in our jars of glass 
Seeing who could capture the most 
The winner got rights to brag and boast 

We were awed by their illuminating light
To watch them gave us pure delight 
In our jars we gazed at the fireflies glow
Until mom said okay sweeties time to let them go

At grandpa and grandma's we spent many summer nights and days 
And one fond memory always sets my heart ablaze 
All those fireflies glowing like little stars 
And us chasing and catching them in glass jar 

           -C.A.Saputo xoxo
