Passion's Face

Just a quick poem I wrote

Passion’s Face

You and I, alone at last
There is no future, there is no past
A gentle kiss, a warm embrace
The passion’s there upon your face

A one time fling, a fleeting chance
It matters not, we’ll dance the dance
Together in our special place
The passion’s there upon your face

Is it love, or something more
We’re only friends, to that we swore
Your big wide eyes your style, your grace
The passion’s there upon your face

The lights are out, I cannot see
Except your eyes, they look at me
You pull me tight, our hearts do race
The passion’s there upon your face

Together we merge again, again
As with all lovers it’s always been
But I am not yours, you must erase
The passion there upon your face

And now it’s done, it’s time to part
We’ll take each other, in our heart
With one last glance I see a trace
Of passion there upon your face



…..that is all….

Restless Dreams

Restless dreams, I toss and turn
My soul's on fire, my heart does yearn
For the times in life, when things were calm
And all life's answers were in my palm

So much I knew when I was young
The answers to all was on my tongue
About friends and family and what I had
About life and love and happy and sad

Time changes all of that I'm sure
For what ails me there is no cure
I'm nearing the end of a long rough road
I hope I'm able to carry the load

The day's begun, I'll start anew
I've set my plans that life will skew
It's been a ride and sometimes fun
But through it all I'll continue to run

And trod and fight and kick and scream
And never ever lose my dream
Of peace and joy and hope and love
And hope I've contributed to all above

If tomorrow don't come and it ends today
It's been interesting I have to say
So go in peace and enjoy the best
Of what life offers and to heck with the rest.

Darkness

Darkness

A bit of prose I wrote here while back when I wasn't feeling too cheerful.

The world is darkness
There is no light
A dull pallor has fallen
Foggy and damp
My body hurts
My soul is shattered
All around me is rubble
Of a former life
Stones of the past
That really never was
I feel nothing
It is done

Pennies from Heaven

Pennies From Heaven


Remember when......

We were children....

Try to remember...

I know you can....

You're not that old....

Are you?

The world was new......

Not to everyone else.....

But to YOU!

Mom and Dad....

Were king and queen....

Your world was small.....

But it was your world.....

In your mind....

You could have friends....

Who couldn't be seen.....

But they were real......

Real in your world.....

And a penny.......

That was cool!......

It was better than gold........

Because gold was something in a book.......

But a penny.....it had power......

Not by itself.......

But with others.......

You could buy.......

Gum....Candy....Baseball cards!

I want that again.......

I want to go back.......

Not to childhood........

But to a time when pennies.......

Were soemthing besides a nuisance.....

Something in the way........

So I am off.......

Searching for pennies.......

Not the pennies of now........

But the pennies of my childhood.....

I hope they're still there........
