Moon Chaser
how beautiful it is
to see you smile at the sun
when it pours life into the wild
and sets spring into motion
how brave is your soul
to chase after the moon
and dance under the shadowy blanket
of uncertainty and wonder
how joyful am I
to tell you that the sun and the moon
the flowers and stars
never died with the season
they were pursuing you
to see you smile at the sun
when it pours life into the wild
and sets spring into motion
how brave is your soul
to chase after the moon
and dance under the shadowy blanket
of uncertainty and wonder
how joyful am I
to tell you that the sun and the moon
the flowers and stars
never died with the season
they were pursuing you

the aphotic zone
shine for me, baby
cosmic display
when darkness covets
every thought
each inaction
where pressure
flattens existence
in coldest embrace
your luminescence
lights my way

Heavenly Serenity
standing on the edge of life
yet feeling not alive
death calls me beyond
sacred place where
light always shines
luv is just a smile away
surroundings so peaceful
where bodies are changed
and pain is forever not felt
sacredness flows thru my heart
as an angelic choir sings harmoniously
while I’m dreaming of serenity......
living among heavenly Angel’s
while my imagination awakens
“when the night falls”

Proud
As a child it was easy
It was fun an care free
Then when did fear attack our
Mentality
The wrong thoughts I been tought
The wrong answers all I sought
And still
I never found answers in a bottle or with a pill
In order for me to shine
Well I had to damn nearly loose my mind
Now I've learnt that when I'm down
A happy though can turn things around
You're a different person in everyones eyes
Some see the laughs some see the cries
Some can even see past you're disguise
Take a minute and shout this...

Arise Now
Falling from the sky
Karma knocks with sighs,
Big or small
Leaves come down fast
In faster winds blast.
When all is laid out
Flat out dead end routes,
Big or small
Whatever happens
Won't last but, lighten.
Doors and windows close
Though nobody knows,
Big or small
Some limitless
Openings may bless.
If you're worried, call,
Make your own new trail,
Big or small
Have love, heart and hope,
Giving lets you cope.
If downs in life suck
Count blessings for luck,
Big or...

Such Is Life
Life.....
There will be trials.
There will be tribulations.
There will be ups and downs.
There will be twisted curves and turns.
There will be moments that rock you to your core.
There will be moments spent rediscovering who you are.
There will be times of deep inner soul searching.
There will be times that your weakness will overcome your strength.
There will be times where it will take all your courage to be able to withstand the weight life.
There will be times where you will have to defend yourself.
There will be moments where...
There will be trials.
There will be tribulations.
There will be ups and downs.
There will be twisted curves and turns.
There will be moments that rock you to your core.
There will be moments spent rediscovering who you are.
There will be times of deep inner soul searching.
There will be times that your weakness will overcome your strength.
There will be times where it will take all your courage to be able to withstand the weight life.
There will be times where you will have to defend yourself.
There will be moments where...

monday tweak
I must confess
Mondays are stress,
Bad weather swells
The bed farewells,
Just half awake
With vision opaque,
Some caffeine
Ousting that dream,
Awash your face
Get to that place,
Stuck into traffic
Words become graphic,
Arriving at work
Still a bit blurred,
That coffee intake
To rattle and shake,
Hope it’s a good week
That offers a tweak.

Understanding This
Its a fascinating idea Life lessons and time.
Its hard to imagine Reason without rhyme.
I've walked the world and never left home.
Backwards I haven't traveled, not dared to roam.
Memories constantly flood, overwhelm my brain.
Muscle memory exists so I'll miss the pain.
The path I've wandered, I've not walked alone.
Though in precious company I am on my own.
I can not pretend to fathom a plan.
Whether by my own design or by grand.
Divinity I lack, omniscience I have not.
Looking at this life now, I prefer...

A time to despair
A time to despair
I hear it in the air
Internal sirens sound
Panick abound
What if, what if?
What if I loose it all?
What if I stray and fall?
Towards the dark abyss?
When you look into the mirror
And all you see is failure
Let light shine on your heart
The light of what you've been through
Say, have you never fallen?
Never gotten up again?
Let each such time be a sun
To guide you through the rain
A mother's love has taught me this
Do not, do NOT surrender
No matter what color,...
I hear it in the air
Internal sirens sound
Panick abound
What if, what if?
What if I loose it all?
What if I stray and fall?
Towards the dark abyss?
When you look into the mirror
And all you see is failure
Let light shine on your heart
The light of what you've been through
Say, have you never fallen?
Never gotten up again?
Let each such time be a sun
To guide you through the rain
A mother's love has taught me this
Do not, do NOT surrender
No matter what color,...

Sunshine through the rain
If it can be dreamed it can be done
Look past the rain to see the sun
Belief in you is all you need
First you must try if you are to succed
Naysayers saying u wont
But you dont listen to them child no you dont
We must all fall to learn to stand
Dont worry if things aren't going exactly as planned
Because through all the heartache and all the pain
You're going to see sunshine through the rain
Look past the rain to see the sun
Belief in you is all you need
First you must try if you are to succed
Naysayers saying u wont
But you dont listen to them child no you dont
We must all fall to learn to stand
Dont worry if things aren't going exactly as planned
Because through all the heartache and all the pain
You're going to see sunshine through the rain

Rare Pair
shivering from the cold
garden covered in frost
chilled wind tossing leaves
raindrops kiss petals
stimulating roots so fragile
intertwining under moist earth
rare purple vibrant roses
stand tall thru a storm
feeling each other’s strength
warm sun beams down
their petals open to greet
it’s touch of warmness
so graciously they grow
toward sacred light
from heavens above
night falls upon the land
wind whispers a rhythmic lullaby
as petals kiss and leaves hug
so...
garden covered in frost

raindrops kiss petals
stimulating roots so fragile
intertwining under moist earth

stand tall thru a storm

it’s touch of warmness
so graciously they grow
toward sacred light

My Beatrice
My Beatrice
You take me to where
Dante’s Divine trilogy did.
And to bring me on that journey
From perdition to paradise
Makes the layover in purgatory
A lounge
With you my cocktail waitress
You take me to where
Dante’s Divine trilogy did.
And to bring me on that journey
From perdition to paradise
Makes the layover in purgatory
A lounge
With you my cocktail waitress
