The Path Forward

The Path Forward

Forward on I go On the path so many say Is the lesser traveled And for fools No longer do I try To trod two paths at one time Stepping full onto the safer When I fear there may be pain Instead, I trod down the riskier one Pain and happiness are both rewards Along this trail I see who I can and will become Is that you I see On this same path Shall we rejoice That we are…

Her pictures show one beauty But not the one that’s best For within her lies the real treasure Trying to be hidden by her past She wishes the outside “perfect” Even now she knows her doubts Not much longer will she feel this Unneeded unholy doubt This simple bard doth know Aphrodite and Cleopatra Of her beauty would surely jealous be As do I surely know It is her inner strength and beauty That was the real hook for me…

Eternal

Eternal

Lights Like lives intertwined Beautiful alone Inspiring together Reaching thru Space and time Sometimes splitting Other times reuniting Some always connecting Some forever alone Time ceases while viewing These endless dances In the heavens and on earth

The Warrior Lady

The Warrior Lady

Into the darkness She sometimes falls Will she be ruled By darkened mind Cries havoc does she Against tears that fall On forward does she go Conquer the darkness Shall she Dancing into the light Her will shall be With sword held high Vanquished The dark shall be Amidst the light Does she belong For from her strength The light does come Clearing the darkness From her sight Bathing her In that holy light

Awakening

Stars start to restDawns first lights possessOranges, Pinks and RedsMake the clouds delight A drake and mateGlide thru ethereal mistLanding on placid molten glassReflecting the dawning dayReminding me of a memory Songbirds singAs autumn callsAgainst summer’s final fling Rising wisps of vaporTapering amidst the reeds and trees As the sky grows brightPink and blue do fightTo seize control in clouds and higher heavens Frogs talk onAs farawayLoons sing outCalling to their mates Barely a ripple leftThe lovers paddle onAs this…

I Wish

I Wish

I wish just once That I would feel An embrace that cared deeper Than good to see you To be the one that was wanted there Because it was for me, they somewhat cared To hold one who cared as the sun set And watch the stars appear overhead To fall asleep, them in my arms They find comfort in my warmth Just once I’d like to know what it is like To be joined with someone who cares its…

Into life We shall go The end of which Already known, Boldy Must we go Black door again Painted red, But timidly Have we hidden Beaten down Until no longer we allow it, Pain will be But it will lose If embrace it Instead of cowering away, Peel layers Then dig deeper To find our treasures Deep within, No more black Will this night be For the light will shine From within us shall it come, Ourselves and others No…
