Old MacDonald had
a farm, EU EU - Oh!

Now he's on the Isle of
Sheppey with all the
other sheep farmers
and their boredom
Collies, drawing the
dole, listening to a re-
branded version of Ewe 2.

Where there's a will,
there's a wall

Where there's a pale
there's a wail

Where there's a need
there's no heed

Where there's a hill
there's a way.

.
Dust hangs in the still air,
caught by a shaft of light,
shiny sprinkles float serene,
in space a string-less kite.

A particle catches the eye,
playing tai-chi within a ray,
the stationary free dance
of a mote at indulgent play.

In a house that is not my home
On a cookie-cutter street
Battered by the sun, the wind and rain
I wonder how I got here and how I can get out.

All my stuff is scattered everywhere
And hanging on the walls in rooms
That hold no trace of me
Or who I am or want to be.

The neighbor’s floor plan is the same
I could walk in her house blind.
I push my furniture around
But there is still no sign of me.

Everything of who I was
Is boxed and stashed away upstairs.
I’ve never had a house with stairs
And that makes this more foreign.

This house is full of all my things
Shipped across the miles
But I forgot to pack myself
And I am still back there.

In a  home with character
And charm that I created
On a quiet tree lined street
Shared with other kindred souls

The one who wanders through these rooms
Will not admit to being me,
Or breathe life into this address
Nor paint her spirit on the walls.

A guest in my own final home
My name is on the deed
But it belongs to someone else
And I must find a way to live here.

I wrote this the week we moved to Nevada.  I was a lost soul in a strange new place and wrote a lot of dark verses.  I'm posting one only now and then to avoid being seen as a Dreary Dora.

~
Hold my hand and persuade the way
tell me all you want to say
~
Whisper softly in my ear,
all those things I want to hear
~
Kiss my lips and touch my skin
bring out passions deep within
~
Draw me close and hold me near
eradicate my pain and fear
~
In the darkness of the night,
shine your beacon, be my light
~
In the luster of the sun,
demonstrate you are the one
~
Offer me wings so I can fly
and I will soar when you're nearby
~
Infilrate my heart, break the wall,
it's time for me to let it fall
~
I've been a prisoner, extensively
Break my chains and set me free
~
Strip me of my armor tight
this time I won't put up a fight
~
Release my soul held deep within
For you’re in my heart where love begins

Sparkle in Wisdom
I give each name an emotion
And
Each emotion a name.

I form with each face a relation
And
With each relation a face.

I give each story an ending
And
Each ending a story..

I give each smile a reason
And
Each reason a reason to smile..

Emotions for me are each moment of my life..

Happiness is a binding emotion.
Life has only one purpose
And it's to always smile.

Be it,
Tough times
Rough times
Hard times
Happy times
Me times
Share times

No matter what the Time...

But

Smile should always Shine

Infamous one
Playing with my kiddos
Giving stuffed animals voices
Drawing and telling them stories
Things are great when we are together
Laughter is natural the real deal
Smiles are full ear to ear
Playing time lost in the moment

CRAZY

Crazy is real
Alive and kicking
Hidden in minds
Beyond recognition
So heed my warning
Before it stays
Deal with those issues
Don't stuff them away
Or crazy may last
To the end of our days!

Life last only
a short time

So few love
Can ever be shared

So few words
Can ever be said

It is not an illusion
my reason why ,
I bleed poetry

To make my life magic
Before I fade away
Let my pain now die
Grant me one wish
I ask of thee
The gift of poetry
To keep me alive!
