Karma
So many jokes I hear of
Some offer a puddle of treason
And others shock me by mocking me
I’m so stubborn just give me a cupboard of dishes
And I’ll switch with you
Because soon you will be getting dished
what you are due
The echoes of the hallways
perform on this scene
as a tempered beat
of peoples feet
So much confusion meets my ears
As I have them open
hoping to hear
the secrets of the women
coming here
To meet me for lunch
I’m heading
to go shopping with them
We’re going to find
all the sales and deals of the day
What a wonderful afternoon
Full of lobbying and hopping
from store to store
We were born for this
Changing times bring me to sigh
I wash away my tears
Hoping to rid myself of my fears
The fire that prospers my spirit
Is also what I hear of as the cure
For my despair
Come to me
And bring me
what also sings to me
Love, what an odd position you put me in
Telling me that we have to move for your job
Let me prove my love for you doesn’t depend
On our address
I love you and will follow you anywhere
The raindrops fall to the petals of the flowers
The leaves fall from the trees
This storm brings glory
Leaving behind a touch of seasons changing
So many blessings come from what seems to breed turmoil
The bees may hide and the branches may fall
But after all is gone and over
I know there will be more power given to the ones
That honor their own shower of forgiveness
MEMORIES
Standing sideways leaves her body to be but a silhouette
Slightly in the shade she moves closer to the tree
As she glances to her left she sees the marking of an imprinted heart
This art was formed in memory of her true love
Some have said he is deceased but she knows his soul always lives
Endless
Lord, my castle is my perception of life
So tall and wide are my hopes and dreams
Never yielding to my fears
but keeping the field of green pastures nourished and watered
All of my days are fruitful and let my mind and heart
Continue to grow in what leads me to my passions
So wonderful are your ways
Always reminding me to ration
Never let me fail as you teach me to be blind to the world
You reach me in a fashion that escorts goodwill
And your ways are mighty
Wedding vows
My vows to you play into a passion like the rays of the sun
So tenderly is my heart yearning to be one with you
On our journey together
Let’s always remember to promote goodwill In each other
And let’s never give into failure
As we walk down this road that leads us to divinity
let’s always hold dear our God who made us one
And lets us always cheer for each other
as if we carry the tune to our destiny
Drifting in the sea
I swear I will be
A unit of compromise today
And tomorrow you will Stare
at the sores on my feet
I will not judge you
I know you are helpless
Dripping in esteem
I cure my beginning
Of arthritis
In my mind
I’m so old
Can I find my last
Memory?
And will it show
Me my true
Endeavors?
