POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
I am a story teller that strives to deserve the title Poet.
Always; Forever
Warm summer breeze
Clouds drift by
White against blue
Stirring autumn trees
Guiding me gently
Back to our home
Towards only you
Nature's planned destiny
My forever
My always
My friend
My true North
...For my husband
Clouds drift by
White against blue
Stirring autumn trees
Guiding me gently
Back to our home
Towards only you
Nature's planned destiny
My forever
My always
My friend
My true North
...For my husband

Done
You can't hurt me
I’m not scared
Afraid or intimidated
I am done; and free
The support I knew
The protection I felt
The partnership we made
Is no longer true
I miss all what we had
Believing it would last
Our bond and blood pact
Along the way went bad
Life is too precious
A few seasons passed
I moved on with life
This feud now senseless
I’m not scared
Afraid or intimidated
I am done; and free
The support I knew
The protection I felt
The partnership we made
Is no longer true
I miss all what we had
Believing it would last
Our bond and blood pact
Along the way went bad
Life is too precious
A few seasons passed
I moved on with life
This feud now senseless

A toast to you
He is wealthy beyond no end
Because he loves my best friend
She is beautiful and daring
Warm, comforting and caring
A man and woman of character
True friends that you treasure
Always there to lend a hand
Be supportive and understand
With an open door
Generous free pour
Opening their home to all
Whether it be Day light or nightfall
So cheers too you two
And thanks for all you due!

Faith
Dark memories
Night of terror
You're not alone
I'll walk you home
Open your mind
Voice your truth
You're not alone
I'll walk you home
Let out your demons
Speak from your soul
You're not alone
I'll walk you home
Release your voice
Set yourself free
You're not alone
I'll walk you home
Filled with pride
Courage and heart
You're not alone...

I'll walk you home
Release your voice
Set yourself free
You're not alone
I'll walk you home
Filled with pride
Courage and heart
You're not alone...

Him
Nineteen years
Ups and downs
Built a life
Smiles and tears
Feel butterflies
Romantic gestures
Doing my make up
Little black dress
He's sexy still
Now a little grey
I'm so in love
Our lives unreal!

untrue
Gave you a garden;
You neglected, forsaken;
Leaving dead flora

Reflection
Creative and beautiful; shielding her worth
Rich in wisdom, soulful
A profit on earth
Her eyes tell a tale
Of shattered dreams
And of past betrayal
Only just acquainted but I know her well
She is my image painted
For we share a secret hell
“How did I get here?”
“Am I being punished?”
“Do I give into fear?”
Don’t listen to that voice; but take my advice
Like is short; dream big
Sometimes fake and we sacrifice
“You will not regret the things you did;
But the things you never tried.”
These were my...

Rhythm
Passion at first glance
A love that is flowing
Well Choreographed
A timeless dance
Sometimes they fight
Angry words are said
Yet decades have past
Still behaving just wed
They prove their devotion
Remembering the oath shared
"I DO, TIL FOREVER, AND BEYOUND DEATHS BED"
These promised words can be heard
By the beating of their hearts
A duet rhythmically in sync
Love eternally tethered
A love that is flowing
Well Choreographed
A timeless dance
Sometimes they fight
Angry words are said

Still behaving just wed
They prove their devotion

"I DO, TIL FOREVER, AND BEYOUND DEATHS BED"

By the beating of their hearts
A duet rhythmically in sync
Love eternally tethered

Unselfish Deeds
Supportively
Herself on hold
Going without
Comfortably
Opinion subdued
She's a mirror
Reflecting compassion
All judgement removed
Un-sharing ideals
Inner voice filtered
Thoughts of substance
She stifles back tears
Unselfishly the mirror
Compassionately;
Generously;
Empathetically
The mirror
Herself on hold
Going without
Comfortably
Opinion subdued
She's a mirror
Reflecting compassion
All judgement removed
Un-sharing ideals
Inner voice filtered
Thoughts of substance
She stifles back tears
Unselfishly the mirror
Compassionately;
Generously;
Empathetically
The mirror
