Rain In A Foreign Land (Memory of Rain)
The past is foreign to me
but I remember rain.
The land will not remember me but
her and I will recall things the same.
How I turned on her earth
in the crushed grass with the
burden of thirst and so, too
waiting in vain
To be remembered by her people,
yet no one saw us in that Summer's frame.
Our union was but a moment as
my bare skin touched her and she
brushed my thighs.
But I did not belong to her
nor her to I so I moved along, away.
And as I turned from her to leave
the sky turned dark and...
but I remember rain.
The land will not remember me but
her and I will recall things the same.
How I turned on her earth
in the crushed grass with the
burden of thirst and so, too
waiting in vain
To be remembered by her people,
yet no one saw us in that Summer's frame.
Our union was but a moment as
my bare skin touched her and she
brushed my thighs.
But I did not belong to her
nor her to I so I moved along, away.
And as I turned from her to leave
the sky turned dark and...

The Beach

Verse

Yeah, I'm going to the beach today,

Photographs, Memories and Smiles
I heard back in the day you didn’t want to school
You wanted to work and make money
You had your own plans for a future
But most of all you wanted to have a family
You took risks and yet played it conservatively
Not sure how one does that, perhaps it was your upbringing
The generations of strong women in your blood
Who never depended on a man to provide for them
It was one of those lessons you’d pass down to your daughters
And to your boy
You used to dance, your siblings and cousins would say
You’d drink and laugh, it’s in...

Grandfathers Chair
A well-marked path scarred the
rich soil leading from the asphalt to the forested trail where grandfather's leather boots blazed the way, through golden aged pines.
Evergreen needles lay over a backlog
of dregs drawn together, forming folds along the water's edge.
The creek babble's along its wayward course, stopping briefly where herbs grow in bunches and stools of mushrooms provide a resting place
for your imagination.
Light from above co-mingles with
shade bringing warmth to vines
that hang from old oaks the striking beauty embellished...

The Forgotten Black Man
Into the abyss of the fertile land
my free hands tilled
Onto Mother Nature’s fields my sweat seeped
bowed below the scorching beams of rays my youth enslaved
Scars of remembrance, unbound by chains
Intelligent now befalls unto the
ignorance of wisdom
my free hands tilled
Onto Mother Nature’s fields my sweat seeped
bowed below the scorching beams of rays my youth enslaved
Scars of remembrance, unbound by chains
Intelligent now befalls unto the
ignorance of wisdom

The Painful Recollection of Losing You
The painful recollection of losing you has severely disheartened me.
Time can never take away the record of your love from my mind.
Other women have given me the opportunity to love them.
Nevertheless, I’ll wait patiently for you in loneliness.
The minutes are like hours and the days feel like months.
I should salvage what is left of my heart and move on without you,
But I just can’t relinquish my only hope for happiness.
Your emotive love is the one thing in life worth living for now.
Every day I miss you more and it worsens my sadness.
I’ve got...

Two decades or more I reckon
Time flies and so do we
Like dragonflies or biting fleas
Bright faces become darker
As do the circles 'neath eyes
Interactions just become markers
To gauge how fast time flies
Johnny boy, he bought a book and ran
Ryan and R.J got their wings then got Iran
Sarah and a dozen others got married off
And the wary farm kids all got their land
The rich kids all got good jobs by their dads
The preps all joined the state band
But myself and a dozen others aren't so grand
Running the same old circles in our backwater hometown ...
Like dragonflies or biting fleas
Bright faces become darker
As do the circles 'neath eyes
Interactions just become markers
To gauge how fast time flies
Johnny boy, he bought a book and ran
Ryan and R.J got their wings then got Iran
Sarah and a dozen others got married off
And the wary farm kids all got their land
The rich kids all got good jobs by their dads
The preps all joined the state band
But myself and a dozen others aren't so grand
Running the same old circles in our backwater hometown ...

Resentful Hearts
I can still remember it like it was yesterday,
They sat on the couch across from him,
I can remember her saying “we’re doing ok”
“And we don’t need you” my cousin told his father.
I remember I stood in the kitchen,
Angry and sad at the same time,
Although my cousin and I weren’t as close growing up,
I was very attached my uncle.
Those words embedded themselves in my memory,
Divorce can play a harsh tune in resentful hearts,
I know my uncle was a good man,
After all, he was there for me more than my own father.
Then...

Forced Shadows
What’s to make of this cloud we call a virus?
Living inside still if anything more time to practice.
Meeting would be nearly impossible in times like this.
What if you have it?
The longer one stays alone is more time to morph into something super.
Why is it as soon as we’re not suppose to you crave?
True to myself I’ll take good morals to the grave.
Like you know that a new leaf is turned over here too.
Fear instilled by this thing we can’t see a magnified flu.
Trapped now but know that I still want to see you.
