POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Darkside of light
I walk along the shore at midnight
Where the tide meets the sand
I feel you, holding my hand
An angel from the darkside of light
Come with me, she whispered softly
My wings will set your soul free
Come with me, to find eternity
Dark angel, I'm lost in your mystery
She was born with the devil's scorn
Her passion fueled by my desire
She took me to a place where angels never fly
I burned to ashes and never felt the fire
Where the tide meets the sand
I feel you, holding my hand
An angel from the darkside of light
Come with me, she whispered softly
My wings will set your soul free
Come with me, to find eternity
Dark angel, I'm lost in your mystery
She was born with the devil's scorn
Her passion fueled by my desire
She took me to a place where angels never fly
I burned to ashes and never felt the fire

Pirate Life
I guess you never saw my SOS
Cause you always sailed on by
I wonder if you ever think of me
As you disappear into a sunset sky
A pirate’s flag you wear so well
Always lookin’ for a new heart to steal
A treasure chest of broken hearts
I guess it’s not the gold, rather it’s the thrill
Baby I’m stranded here
On your island of misery
I’m not asking you to sail the seven seas
Just do what you can and rescue me
So much time has gone by
I walk up and down on this shore
When I find my pearl in a shell
I won’t...

The Outlaw In You
This life I was livin’, it was all good, wrapped up tight like a bow
Until that summer you took me by the hand and taught me how to let go
We played a game for awhile until I drew the queen of hearts
Our hearts were beating like a thousand horses, just running wild
We crossed the mountains and the boarder, just to feel alive
I never took you for a cowgirl, but you rode it that way
Maybe it was me, maybe it was you, was it the way you held my gun, or did we just find something new
The outlaw in you
You were a school teacher ringing...

Riptide
Your imagination is running wild
Like the kryptonite of a scorpion’s sting
Our secrets blend together in a broken wing
Numb with pleasure it’s emotional surge
The energy ebbs and slowly flows
A whirlpool you can no longer control
Warm hot senses floods and fulfills the soul
Your skin is warm as you whisper don’t touch
Like a riptide clenching, crashing I’m drowning
Your eyes open I feel a change come over me
I’m lost in the deepest part of the sea
You call my name... I’ve never been the same
Like the kryptonite of a scorpion’s sting
Our secrets blend together in a broken wing
Numb with pleasure it’s emotional surge
The energy ebbs and slowly flows
A whirlpool you can no longer control
Warm hot senses floods and fulfills the soul
Your skin is warm as you whisper don’t touch
Like a riptide clenching, crashing I’m drowning
Your eyes open I feel a change come over me
I’m lost in the deepest part of the sea
You call my name... I’ve never been the same

Butterfly’s Dream
I used to know a green eyed girl
Extraordinary like a muffin so sweet
She could rock my small town world
Her smile and touch could take me there
To a place by the river I never been before
The Alabama sun through the Georgia pines
Memories lost in the essence of magical times
I wish I could go back, just for a day
To feel her passion burn within my soul
She’ll take my wings as we fly away
Beyond the rainbow of a forgotten storm
Lost inside the beauty of a garden
Like the sunshine of your love covered in...

Yellow and Red
I find peace where the water meets the sand
Looking into the deep blue sea
A piece of a picture I hold in my hand
Your reflection in the waves is all I see
The storm begins to hale the rain is to fall
I think of you as I stare through the pain
It’s a living hell my back is against the wall
I write I Love You in the condensation on the broken pane
This house is so empty since you’ve been gone
The silence is all I can hear
It doesn’t make sense why I feel so alone
I would sell my soul if you could be here
If you...

Your Sacrifice
Sittin’ here in a waiting room
Hoping a nurse will say you’ll be okay
Praying the angels are near
Talk about faith over fear
Your life are in the hands of
People I don’t even know
I guess it’s all in Gods plan
But I here trying to understand
My mind drifts away
To magical times of you me
Like a garden outside my back door
I see things differently, like never before
When comes to your heart
That’s something that can’t be broken
I would do it all without thinking twice...

The Lamb
The dogwood blooms
With strength and resilience
It’s purity is spiritual for all to behold
A twig covered in an ever-changing silk
The butterfly spreads its wings
As a resurrection to unfold
White lilies against a canvas of green
Like tears falling from a broken heart
In a garden between the olive trees
Stands a young sheep like an image of God
A sacrifice for the world, if only you believe
The lamb is a gentle as a springtime breeze
I would see the lamb from time to time
Eventually we became more than friends ...

Sunnyside
As the birds sing among the trees
A gentle southern breeze
Fills the air with the aroma of wisteria
My mind slips away
Way back beyond yesterday
Being consumed by daydreams
I dream about the ones that came before
And how their spirit lives here forever more
A legacy buried deep in red Georgia clay
No matter where I live or wherever I my roam
I will always call Sunnyside my home
A place of strength and hope with the spirit of the Cherokee Rose
A gentle southern breeze
Fills the air with the aroma of wisteria
My mind slips away
Way back beyond yesterday
Being consumed by daydreams
I dream about the ones that came before
And how their spirit lives here forever more
A legacy buried deep in red Georgia clay
No matter where I live or wherever I my roam
I will always call Sunnyside my home
A place of strength and hope with the spirit of the Cherokee Rose

Precious Moments
I remember slammin’ that screen door
My grandma would tan my hide
I remember drivin’ a TO-Thirty Five
My Grandpaw he was right there by my side
I remember the love at Sunday dinner
My Mother sayin’ out of the kitchen until it’s done
I remember mastering shifter of a fifty three
My Daddy yellin’ don’t ride the clutch, son
Maybe I was to young
Maybe I was self centered
Or maybe I was full of foolish pride
I guess I took so much for granted
I thought...

You and Me-Me and You
You and me-me and you
Sometimes we get lost
There’s days without a clue
We always find a way back
To the bridges we crossed
You and me-me and you
With all the memories that we find
They turn grey skies into blue
Do we know what we have
Somehow we can’t leave it behind
You and me-me and you
Time Is flat always circling by
The years go by like they never knew
The emptiness of space is silent
Like gazing into a starlit sky
You and me-me and you
A Daughter of the universe

Percussion
At the age of fourteen
I walked to the beat of a different drum
The path seemed so arduous
Wisdom came from a frog with a diamond ring
He said be patience my friend your day will come
Walking home with writing of Rand
I saw tractor left broken in the field
I knew I wasn’t lost but had something to sale
Disillusioned by the beat of the band
I guess it was just part of the deal
To beat the beat as part of the band
It’s the rush of it all if you understand
Had my highs and my lows
Friendships, tragedies and foes ...
