Here I sit

And you so far away

Here I wish

Your flight landed today

Distant are we

Beautiful is she

Thoughts runs silently

Times of her and me

Here I sit

With imagines of you

Here I wish

I could only touch you

Then kiss you

Then massage you

Whisper to you

Then love

Living within the recession,

I wonder what's going on

The anger and hurt,

Harmonized as its being sung

Come get to this,

After midnight and morning midst

These inner city blues,

Outer country feuds

The love is distant

Between international cities

Mercy mercy me,

As the bombings continue

Hear my dear,

The love pain and fear

Warmth by the sun

Chilled by the breeze

Admiring the little children

Sprinkles of fall leaves

They smile with laughter

Many run carefree

Aside the newstand and cafe

Many scrap their knees

Warmth by the sun

Not a cloud in sight

Admiring the little children

Paddle their bikes

They smile with laughter

Many run carefree

Stubborn is the wind

Which blows hearts far across the sky

Pictures of we

Smiles frowns and ego stares

Live in the sky

Cloud eleven is a stretch away

The a.m. arrives

Arrival is today

Blues being played by the early morning band

Sunshines across the glittering tan sand

Stubborn is the

Here we go again with the promises and compromise the lies.

They all offered hope for a change;

men clapped loud women cried.


The new change is a lot like the old change.

Tell me what you see
You’ll never understand
Unless you take a look inside
Spend the day with me
Know why
I say what I do
Do the things I do
Think the way I do
Or feel
What I feel
Step outside
Clear your mind

Long ago I would come to her bedroom early in the morning
Her light would be on. The ceiling fan is turning.
She’s asleep.

There’s half a glass of cabernet on her nightstand.
She’s wearing only a cotton tee shirt.
The book she’d been reading is still propped

I am loved.  I am freed.  I am abundant in my substance.

I feel my soul inside of me holding me
Smiling.

I am lucky and I am joy.

Because
I have found God
Through the eternal warmth
Of  the woman who loves me
And will always love me.

I will never fumble

You’re dizzy and drunk

falling all over the place.

Your makeup is smeared

all over your face.

 

You stumble as you walk

and mumble while you fall.

I drift away
into a deep sleep
What will i dream of today
My eyes dont weep
It all starts at a tree
at the park
as my dreams remind  me
of your kind loving heart
You'd give up your last dollar
to anyone who needed it
you'd never holler
you'd just say sit
