POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Sable
Dreaming and waiting for romance as the years go flying
by well the loneliness is enough to make you just
wanna die you tell yourself you don't need anyone but
deep down inside you know it's a lie...you fight back
the tears all throughout the day but at night you lay
awake and cry looking back on your life you wonder why
no one ever sought to win your love and claim your
heart then you begin to wonder if there might be
something wrong with you but that's understandable when
loves been nothing but a stranger to you that would
make anyone bluer than blue...

The Great Wild Romance
After twenty something years now
We’re still like two teenagers in love
The way we laugh over silly little things
The way we still hold hands and kiss
In public until people stare and talk
About us
I'm sure they say things like why don't
They act their age but true love knows
No age limit. Their just pee green with
Envy if anything.
'Cuz after twenty something years now
We’re still like two teenagers in love.
But it wasn't always like that before
We met by chance we both had been
Used, abused and left wondering if the ...

While You Were Away
Well and you said you needed some room
To breath and time to think because maybe
We’re taking things way too fast
So if you really care about me you'll wait
For me and if it's meant to be it will last
Oh but now you've been gone too long
And While You were away someone else
Came along
Someone who makes me feel good all day
Every day and all night long
Someone who makes me smile and feel so,
So strong
I found a new love in an awesome friend
So don't expect me to take you back now
If you ever come back again
I know I said I'd wait...

Death Design
Deaths design, yours and mine.
Deaths design, omens and signs.
Deaths design, from out of the
shadows it comes one more time.
And the grim reaper doesn't take no for an
answer! Dark one of water and fire.
Dark one of suicide and murder.
Two strangers burning with desire.
Autumn, winter, spring and summer.
Well the grim reaper does not take no for
an answer! Who knows whose next? Who knows the
day or the hour of night? But somewhere someone
right now is hexed. But is all
apart of Deaths design, yours and mine.

Nightfall
Nightfall and fog off the Lakelands.
The ghostly touch of a cold and icy hand
fills you full of fear and loathing.
Creature of the night where are you going?
I follow your shadow through the dark
and cloudy night like a black widow for the
love of your life.
There is a whole lot of mystery to your
prowling and howling.
My web quivers as the wind blows across
the river but I am silent approaching the
stranger.

A Prayer Was Answered
Well I've always had faith in Christ
Even in my frustration and sorrows
When I pray to him I know everything's
Is gonna be ok...it is written ask not
Receive not that's not to say I'm not
Thankful for all the blessings in my life
But I hope the messiah grants me a
Little prayer I've prayed for years and
Years day and night...well believe it
Or not last night Jesus spoke to my
Heart and calm befell my soul
Knowing the prayer at last had been
Answered and tears of joy filled my
Eyes hearing his words of wisdom and
Saying, I have heard you...
Even in my frustration and sorrows
When I pray to him I know everything's

Little prayer I've prayed for years and

This Is Now
Well this could be the Renaissance or This Could be now...
A circle dance in the hour of the Northern Mockingbird...
Venus in Pisces by chance...a wild and crazy romance
Serenaded by sweetest sonnets ever sung....
Enchanted by fragrances of Jasmine and Meer...
Well in the shadow of moonlight we celebrate our
Reunion once again tonight never minding those
And the summer festival down by the river side...
Well and this could be the great golden age of
Poe or This Could Be Now...a circle dance in the
Hour of the Great Horned Owl....Jupiter in Mars

Hot To Trot
Irish, Cherokee and Aries...
Well they say look out he's
On the war path again
I dare you to dare me to see
Who can out drink who when
It comes to whiskey, I dare
You to dare me to make it
Rain, you’ll need an ark or
A jet plane, I guess I'm just
That HOT TO TROT without little
Effort on my part yeah well
I guess I just have the luck
Of the four leaf clover 'cuz my
Bow and arrow never misses
Even over my shoulder or in
The black ink dark, I guess I'm
Just a little HOT TO TROT or at
Least I got the trophies to
Prove it...

Aries
Fragrances of honeysuckle in the air
And everywhere from a mountain top
Somewhere well he reins as king
Having the fire inside... bold and courageous
He is like thunder and lightning from the sky
Supreme commander of the Cosmos and
The entire Universe follows in the steps of his
Great and dynamic stride!
Well he is a diamond in the rough and the
A hard core iron clad warlord...
Brave and tenacious, quick witted and energetic,
Idealistic and zealous child of the red sun star
Seeking adventure every day and magic every night
Gee...

Love Rocks
Love Rocks like wind across the sea
Love Rocks like a rocket at top speed
Love rocks
Love Rocks like a storm to a willow tree
Love Rocks like time square on New
Year’s Eve...
It’s amazing; it’s dynamic and so, so
Strong when you find the one you've
Searched for all your life long...
Love Rocks and doesn't stop as one
Season turns into another and the
Seasons turn into years...through
The laughter and the tears...
Love Rocks, Love Rocks and doesn't stop
Like a river flows it just grows and
Grows, powerful and intense since...

sweet, sweet loving' always takes me to the stars because
I know, I know it...
