First came the screams, then the ******,
      Out of the warm dark into the cold light,
Engulfed by arms, soft as a dove, yet as strong as any diamond
      Held to a heart beating my rhythm, touched by breath giving me life
A unexpected first when I opened my eyes,
      Beauty beyond anything I would ever see,
A adoring face whose tears washed away my cry,

Sleep comes with unknown truths,
      Except the truth of love and security from my gentle giant
First and always my love.
               Firewalker
This one I wrote for my wonderful Mom or Mum

The trees have out grown there roots,
        while the sky cries tears of lost memories,

Sorrow and regret for his horrific strokes with an incendiary brush,

 Life pushed forward, but couldn’t compete;
         he won the race, but lost time
              And stands alone on the podium,

 Meditations of thoughts, have no place to go
        No place to play,
               they drift like snowflakes falling on a forgotten path.

  Silence once golden is plunging every moment, into black,

  Cursed with the instinct to survive, He comes a full circle,
         with a understanding of creation.

As we passed through the clouds,
       You from the left, me from the right,
I caught a glimpse of your wings,
        I wanted to ride, but soon realized I was too heavy,
And you were meant to take flight with love greater
       I know you earned bliss and reached heaven.
Your Flight ended too soon.

One day when you pass through the clouds
        I hope you’ll remember to embrace your wings and fly!!

I have a Soul,
We’ve dance
I welcome Mercy,
We’ve cried together
My friend is Spirit
We ride
I know Love,
She Comes and goes as she pleases
And sometimes,
*** comes over with her toys
I met Hate,
He keeps me afraid
Understanding opens the door,
ignorance & indifference shuts it.
Sorrow is kind and holds my hand
I’ve rejected Faith many times,
But He is relentless and stays buried in my heart

Through endless valleys, and mountains of time, I could run,
            walk, even crawl,  but I didn’t know how to see,

   What I saw before was clouds, floating inward, laced with fear,    
            reflections shattered,

   You taught me to see, because you see me, like never before,

   For everything I am, soft, hard, kind & unkind,
          I shiver when I‘m pushed back into safe shadows.

   I’ve become creative with no intent but to see in a new light,

    A world has open up before my eyes, yet I still stumble,
          passion rumbles and shakes the glass, looking for a future,

    Perched alone, atop the highest of peaks,
          viewing the mightiest of grandeur,  
                I realize it’s time to soar with you.

    My eyes are open, my heart is open, open and cannot be closed.

    For closure again will surely leave me lifeless,
         where does this new vision take me?

   Where my Seeing Eye dog always knew where to go To You 
         Because I  SEE YOU.

Lost Child…Part 1…The End.
A nursery rhyme hides from a dreadful place, lost and scared
Folded clothes weep in a tattered dusty dresser ,
She’s the tread woven into the fabric of their Life
It has unravel, society has collapse, the world has ended
I write from a different space.


Part 2….The Middle (Gloom)
Shattered Glass, blood runs like a river,
Burn the books, we don’t need them anymore
COMFORT …GET OUT !!...YOU ‘RE NOT WANTED HERE
You won’t survive the well is now polluted
Cut me once, Cut me twice, Cut me 3X…***..I can feel
I can’t control what I write, my hand is not my own


Part 3….The Search for a New Beginning*
Find the child you must, armed with the heart of a lion,
The eyes of a Hawk, and the will of a wolf
Search every corner, run with the cheetah, swim with dolphin, and soar with the eagle
Brave the flames scorching your soul, be the Knight not in shining armor, but of blood and guts,
Everything depends on finding the *Lost Child
