There is a dream most wish to see
Lasting throughout eternity
A chance to blend both heart and mind
As truth and fantasies unwind
A place of safety and great care
Where hopes and joys are ours to share !
STRANGERS ( 2017 ) 2017/11/29
The world today is lacking trust
We take our joys where e’er we must
The hours all seem to melt away
As do the weeks and everyday.
Time flies with wings so swift and fleet
As strangers stroll by on each street
With neither nod nor passing word
No single thought there to be heard.
This lonesome place within the mind
Where memories we’ve left behind
Too late do seek that compromise
Where all one’s dreams are realized !
CLEAR THE VIEW ( 2017 ) 2017/11/28
I get so tired of all the pain
How I wish that I could start again
What I’d give to have a chance to be
Someone who lives in a world ache free
But that concept will not fly right now
I need learn to struggle through somehow
While faith in the Lord, a prayer or two
May part the clouds and help clear the view !
OVERFLOWING CUP ( 2017 ) 2017/11/27
Observe the sky, today it’s gray
And changes colors day by day
But now is winter time and so
We can’t be sure what hues will show.
The golden glows of summertime
Do verge upon a scene sublime
I most prefer the plums and pinks
Especially as sundown sinks.
I wonder if the Lord can see
How glorious His sky must be
To all of us who looking up
Adore His overflowing cup ?
IT’S POSSIBLE ( 2017 ) 2017/11/26
What is it that life offers all
The chance to shape what may befall
A hope to curb our every whim
Control those steps outside the rim
To spend our days pursueing peace
And from all powers find our release
For somehow time gets in the way
When love does steal the heart away !
OUR REMEMBER WHEN ( 2017 ) 2017/11/25
Oh Santa Claus, dear Santa Claus
I’m writing to you just because
Christmas is coming round the bend
It’s time to share it with a friend
Though not so simple as it seems
As Christmas nears it fosters dreams.
It is a season to feel young
With Yuletide carols to be sung
It would be nice if we’d return
To days when candles would be burned
When children small were told the tales
Of magic sleighs that had no sails.
The reindeer were believed to fly
Across the reaches of the sky
But let’s pretend a moment more
That elves may work in Santa’s store
It’s true I’ve never seen an elf
Except ceramic on a shelf.
Well never mind, this too shall pass
Like Alice through her looking glass
Until next year, same time, same place
Anticipating your embrace
I pray I’m not too old by then
Forgetting our remember when !
ISN’T IT WONDERFUL TO SEE WITH THE HEART OF A CHILD ?
TO HAVE SOMEONE ( 2017 ) 2017/11/24
One lonely heart beats in this breast
Will I find joy in what comes next
Since any move that I chance make
Could mean to me just more heartache ?
I do not think that I shall last
If life does not small pleasures cast
The lonely path is not much fun
Tis better far to have someone !
