A Love a Lassie

If ever a boy stood so alone on a hill.

A warrior from battle after the kill

He looks for his love with a gentle sigh

And blue skies coast gently by.

 

He comes back to mind his lassie so.

He looks and surveys a panorama as though.

Being sent from heaven to mend a broken heart   .

Battle worn senses screaming to be together not apart.

Book Read

AND SO IT WAS SAID.

THAT ALL THOSE WHO NEVER KNEW, HAD NOT READ.

THE BOOK OF MANY AMBIGUITIES.

WHICH LEFT THE NON BELIEVER FILLED WITH OBSCURITY.

AND SO A DARKNESS WAS FOUND.

WHERE ALL SOULS SAT WITH NO SOUND.

AND  MUSIC PLAYED.

BUT NO EMOTION WAS DISPLAYED.

FOR THE BOOK LAY OPEN BUT LOST WAS THE SKILL.

TO READ TO COMPREHEND THE THRILL

Bonnie Lad

The Scented wind she blows soft across the weathered moor.

A  carpet of many colors Lilac, White, Green, is on the floor.

A bonnie lad sits and cries for a love that’s forlorn.

For in his mind she’s reality, just waiting to be born.

 

Bonnie lad break not thy heart so.

For yer lassie knew when it was her time to go.

The good lord called her to be bye his side.

Awa she went awa tae bide.

 

You loved her so much with awe yer soul and very being.

The Tiny Bike

A tiny bike

Mangled and broken

Blood on the pavement

Traffic backed up

Blue and red flashing in my eyes

The sound of sirens

Prayers in my heart

The bike was so small

The truck so big

Without a thought

The tears start to fall

How could someone not see

Where were the parents

Do they even know

My eyes on the bike once more

Passing by

I couldn’t help but to cry

Miami

Pictured white against a setting of blue canvas.

The buildings of Miami, hunt a skyward sun.

South Beach, an ever drawing magnet of fun.

A paradox of confusion.

A realistic illusion.

Of colors in fusion.

A paradise set in utopia.

Of a readily available cornucopia

City limits, a sprawling oasis.

Never ending, and ceaseless.

Me

I stand in front of you

Being who I am

Its the way I was raised

Its easier to think what you want

Then to deal with the truth

Look and stare

Scream and Yell

Break and bust

Regaurdless I’m STILL STANDING

I’m just me

Thats simply all I can br

Maybe take the time

To get to know someone

Before you decide to judge

They just might be

The best friend you need

Wisdom of Love

To live for today, and love for tomorrow is the wisdom of a fool.

For to cheat yourself; from love is hiding behind a painted smile.

Like man who walks down the road, with no direction he is truly lost

 

Take heart and courage for your ideals, to become reality.

Only in certainty does your heart truly know why it is there.

And only through love, can you fulfill, that’s when completeness comes.

 

There are many who have loved and lost, but that is the chance.

The Tree

The tree play’s a lonely solitary stance.

Upon the wind it sways and dance’s.              

Stretching its arm as far it can reach.

Shedding its bounty of pears so sweet.

It is just a tree.

Unlike us it is free.

Proud and strong in a changing moods.

Bearing fruit tender and good.

Still its leave’s are shimmering green.

When autumn comes a change can be seen.

Leaves changing color  to a golden brown.

The Sleeping Magician

11 o’clock and all is well.

No-one is awake to try and tell.

In their deepest sleep they gently dwell.

Under a magicians magical spell.

And so the sleep in gentle dreams.

That night is day or so it seems.

In slumbered realms, of dancing moonbeams.

Where they, sleep the sleep, of a thousand years.

And yet , there is only peace.

Where once there was fear.

Laughter takes the place, of sorrow’s tears.

And worry is buried in a decadent past.

For they have no care’s.

Pray

Clearness invisioned

Darkness with in

How am I supposed to let someone in

The time of smiles

The sorrows of morning

How could I forget

How could I not heed the warning

To you I pray

Keep me safe

For in my heart is where you stay

Lock away the evil

Make it go away

I pray to you each and every day

For in my heart is where you stay

I fear no other

Only you

Please send me a sign

That all is not lost

I pray

Stay with me

Stay in my heart
