this whole human race is crazy
I walk upon a ground that craves me
no one ever said that this world would please you
and no one sees you

it really isn't hard to please me
but the beginning or the end ain't easy
just a due to be paid to the ground that craves you
and no one saves you
inspired by a Facebook page

If today were my birthday,
I know what they'd say
He doesn't look older,
not even a day

He moves a bit slower,
a methodic pace
And there are some new
wrinkles formed on his face

His hair is much thinner
up there on his head
and before the sun sets
he's heading to bed
  
But look at his poetry,
he writes about love
The moon and the stars
and the heavens above

He's still young at heart
and it flows from his pen
Especially when he writes
about her again

He looks quite the same
after all of this time
For age doesn't matter,
if he can still rhyme

The morning sun greets
from an eastern horizon

As smiles trickle down
from the north up above

While right here I stand
in a western direction

South of the border
that sends me her love
Stephan Jul 2016


Will you love me this evening
where moon beams are glowing
and fireflies play
under stars shining bright

Neath evergreens swaying
while crickets are chirping
and warm summer breezes
make everything right

Far beyond the horizon
as city lights flicker
enchanting our view
on these amethyst skies

Will you love me this evening
alone here together
and love me again
in the morning sunrise

Death in the streets
Sidewalks of blood
Innocent souls
Slaughtered in the name of...

Monsters and demons
Life does not matter
Panick and fear
By heartless ******* who...

Claim it's their deed
Praising a shadow
Twisting its words
Till terror becomes...

A way of life
Behind locked doors
Under the covers
Wondering why...

All our governments do is...

Apologize
Something needs to happen and happen fast. Too many innocent people are dying. My heart goes out to those in Nice and everyone else who has lost someone because of a terrorist act.

Chaliced of dreams in a drunken condition
Staggering phrases now leak from my pen
Courage is spilt from a bottled delusion
One hundred proof as all time does suspend

Kissing the floor in a faceless direction
Slurring each word that does tumble my page
Combing the gray, forceful discrimination
Cursing a mirror that challenges age

Lips painted fire, poetic her features
Low cut and staring, a phrase slips my tongue
Desired conclusions in walk away stanzas
Pour me another, the night is still young

Your beauty sings harmony
with a cantata sunrise,
euphoric melodies in viola
and piccolo lingering
‘pon a lavender haze
of periwinkle whispers,
symphonic poetry
afloat of dawn’s breezes,
ecstasy in tangerine desires,
wafting concertos of passion
as I listen quietly
to my day once again
beginning with the perfect
lyrics of your smile
