Dreams whisper
on the wind
Hope floats
on the clouds
Spirit calls
on the wings
the stirrings
within
the struggles
without
beating back
doubts
giving them
no clout
on a path
by design
on a path
by divine
why question
what we
can’t control
each passing
day
growing old
holding onto
dreams
on the wind
hope
on the clouds
spirit
on the wings…
One at a time
toeing the line
stepping back
stepping up
side stepping
holding on
letting go
time to grow
Dreams taken hold
can’t fold
do what you must
do you have the guts…
today
tomorrow
everyday.
No more pushing off
no more delay
Go now
Dream now
Do now
now…
Madness
in the eyes
of strangers
Madness
in the words
of friends
Madness
in the
lockdown
Madness
in the
streets
Madness
wrought
through~
what
to do
when
Madness
rules…
Thankful for
every breath
thankful for
every step
thankful for
every soul
who loves me
thankful for
everyday
I get to
try again
thankful for
trials and tribulations
that have taught
me everything
including how
to survive
thankful for
every sense
thankful for
being alive…
Dreams Alive
Dreams Thrive
Dreams Drive
Dreams Glide
Dreams Slide
Dreams Lie
Dreams Phoenix
Dreams Rise
Dreams Die,
again…
To soar
through
the sky
To land
on a
dime
to preen
my feathers
and
sing my
heart out
In the
blink
of an
eye
I rise
and
fly
if
only…
Little
Bird~
In my life
I’ve traveled far
I’ve stayed close
I’ve had lovers
they come and go
I’ve had friends
they come and go
Sometimes you
get blessed that
the most important
souls to cross your
path return to you~
Time passing
No regrets
I’ve got dreams
working on wings
want to soar
every sunrise
every sunset
a gift~
Every soul
that loves you
a gift~
Treasure them
laugh every chance
cry when you have to
recover from battle
keep fighting…
Grandpa
you were always there
you always cared.
You taught me
what a man is.
Your work ethic
your family devotion
your faith complete.
My Father
since I
didn’t have
mine…
you raised
me well
with love
and strength
compassion
and passion.
I watched
your struggle
you never
complained,
you laughed
through your
pain.
Your love
for Grandma
bright and true,
you took care
of your family
the way a
man should.
In so many ways
both big and
small
you made me
who I am.
You were
always there
when I
needed you~
You never
let me fall
You helped
give me
wings so
I could fly.
You’ve been
gone a
long time
but you are
ALWAYS
with me,
you were
all heart~
I miss you,
I love you,
I remember,
Gramps…
Hell takes
many forms
pain oozes
many sources
life throws
hard balls
crack the bat
every step
determination
it is
relentless
trauma that
soak the skin
test the spirit
Endurance
Stamina
Perseverance
a bottle of whiskey
a gallon of ice cream
walk
write
fight…
Time to change
time to grow
time to hold on
time to let go
time to accept
time to challenge
time to step forward
time to step back
time past due
time is now
EQUALITY~
complete-
for ALL.
it’s about TIME…
