"Cobwebs and Tears"
"Cobwebs and Tears"
Who has the key
To fit the lock
That opens
The dusty room?
Who's not afraid
To reach inside
The closet
For a broom?
Who'll take the time
To sweep it clean
Before the day begins?
And clear the sadness
From the heart
Before the body sins.

'Bottle Power'
'Bottle Power'
Alcohol holds you
At gun point
It makes you
Talk louder
Say things you shouldn't
Go to the bathroom
Frequently
Spend money foolishly
Forget about your health
Act like an ass
Drive like an idiot
Swear at police
Raise money for bail
Live with a hangover
Then stupidly brag
About the "night" you had!
Alcohol holds you
At gun point
But you put the gun
In his hand!

A Different Dessert
This dessert is delightful,
easy and so delicious.

'Marguerite'
'Marguerite'
She's gone
To a better place
Where Angels go...
For she was one
Of them you know.
Always caring
Helping Sharing
Her ready smile
Her special laugh
Bubbling
Doing doing doing
For children small
And not so small.
For elderly who
Needed help and rides
She patiently tended all-----
Her loving heart forever
Making room
for just one more
And never..never for herself
A selfish thought she bore.
She's gone to a better place
Where she can
Lovingly watch below
Yes..the place
Where angels go
For she was
One of them...You know.

Written in Memory of:
Marguerite
Paternal Grandmother
To Jamie Lee
And In her heart I know
To: Laura Dawn
'Near the Fern'
'Near the Fern'
Enchanted Mushroom
You spoke the word
In woodland tongue
And I
'The Elf Of Summer'
heard
and sit beneath your shade
For I have slipped right through
The magic door...
You made.

'Peaceful'
'Peaceful'
A blank page is new to me
For as a rule my thoughts
Are far ahead ...
waiting to be recorded.
And now I sit
And stare...a new peace
has taken over.
I am enjoying it.
I feel fluttering
about my shoulders
I am breathing deeper.
I smell cosmos.
Now I close my eyes
in complete
Contentment.
I don't have to write...
I can just sit here.

'Star Crossed'
'Star Crossed'
Two stars from
Far across
The Night
Joined together
In Love's Sight
Their Journeys
Path
Create it so
Together
Form
A brighter Glow...
