Let's play and run and skip and fall
Let's see how long, it takes to crawl

The grass is green and it's on our pants
It's on our shirts because of the plants

Check out that dirt that's waiting for us
Can I get there first or will it be Russ

I have a new bike, it's a Sting Ray
High rise bars and a banana seat that's gray

Flying kites is fun if the wind is just right
We fly them so high they go out of site

The creek down the street sometimes has some fish
We can't seem to catch em, no matter how hard we wish

The tree at the corner is a blast to go climb
The highest and fastest changes all of the time

Hide and go seek is something we play
If we could, I think, we would play it all day

For some really strange reason, the street light, we hate
Cause when it turns on, I guess that it's late

We hurry and scurry to get up and get out
So we don't get in trouble and nobody shouts....

Brian Hill - 2019#87
Inspired by remembering playtime...!

Do we really have time to get it all done
With so much to do and nowhere to run
The path that we took, turned out not so good
Yet somehow we managed, the BEST that we could
It's time to turn and go a different way
The sooner the better, let's do it today

The fact here is this, we at least took the shot
We learned from the journey, and that is for naught
There will always be, more than one path to take
Never fear, the way chosen, could have been a mistake
We chose, we learned, and that stands above it all
That one little outcome, is never, ever, small....

Brian Hill - 2019 # 308

Talk about timing
Without it, we would be late
Late to everything

Who wants to be late
Do you desire to be late
That's what timing is

Be on time today
Surprise everyone you know
It will surprise you

Brian Hill - 2019 # 191

Watching my ever-present life go by
Going by, just wondering what's next
Next, is so important to, well
What's next....?

Brian Hill - 2019 # 175

The intentions were
To guide you through life's pathway
Where did it lead you

Did it guide you well
The pathway seemed to be bright
You brought love to all

Brian Hill - 2019 # 182

What is anxiety
Why does it occur
Who does it affect
Can you get it at school
Can you get it in your car
Can you get it in the park
How do you control it
How do you function with it
How do you, how do you

Well, you take a deep breath
Look it straight in its anxious riddin eye
Than spit at it

Oh, and then sing “Over the Rainbow”

Just saying...

Brian Hill - 2019 # 212

navigating yourself along the corridor of decisions
realizing and executing are not the same behavior
viewpoints from the passageway have to be rearranged
choose wisely and make it a meaningful decision

Brian Hill - 2020 # 47

Why is it so hard to be ones own self
Where did we lose our identity
Is it in the back yard of our own mind
Is it playing with other lost identities
Is it recoverable

Looking forward to being
Being the one I know best
Being the one that got me here
Being the one I can rely on

Can that one be found?

Brian Hill - 2019 # 214

Pieces that are broke
Pieces I can't renovate
Pieces are missing

Passion for spirit
Passion for being myself
Passion for sharing

Bring back what's now broke
Bring back the passion for life
Bring back simple love

Brian Hill - 2019 # 246

Chances of a lifetime come more than you think
Some arrive so fast that you can't even blink
Without any warning, you have to decide
If this chance is worth it, or just let it slide

If you put your desires out into life's space
The chance it will happen, increase with great pace
Try it and see, but patience is required
Sometimes the results are not really desired...

Both sides of chances are running around
Be careful what you wish for, it might just be found...

Brian Hill - 2019 # 163

bliss anticipates
does it need to be needed
is bliss happening

Brian Hill - 2019 # 265

how long has it been
where have you gone
was it worth all the grief
being gone for so long
it will never be the same
no matter how hard you try
where have you gone
do you have NO reply
now that you're back
the change is quite clear
you're not who you were
you’re something to fear
what did you do
you were gone so long
what did you see
you really moved on

  Brian Hill -2020 # 56

Is the star too far for you to behold
Is it out of range in the vacuum untold
Will it ever be something within your sight
Or kept in your mind choosing not to take flight
If it is too far and untouchable today
Keep that star in view and there will be a way

Brian Hill - 2019 # 319

Live every day the best that you can
You will never know, how long it will span
Take on each day, with a new and fresh view
See how high you can go, how far you pursue

Don't be afraid, of the scary things in life
They're there for a reason, that reason is strife
If it all was green, you would never know red
Would you even know blue, or just be mislead

Live each day the best that you can
You will never know, how long it will span
Remember this note, it's the same for all
You live many days, but get only one fall

Bran Hill - 2020 # 36

There is always time
Time to let your mind wander
Wander to your soul

Brian Hill - 2019 #260

Pursuing a thought
Seek, think, understand
Believe in the thought

Brian Hill - 2019 # 264

appearances continue to be the decision-maker
we as animals need optic sensitivity first
what is next

Brian Hill - 2020 # 64

I can't do it all
Did you ask me to do it
I can't do it all

Brian Hill - 2019#96
Inspired by people who appear to be able to do it all..

Drama is one word
That one word takes over life
Can you control it

Brian Hill - 2019 # 316

Starting out the new year with memories going back
Reflecting on just what I did or what it was I lacked
I find myself being quite surprised and really sort of dazed
To have the memories that I have of all the changes made

Moving from the mountains to the desert of red sand
From the snow-covered hills and the pine trees oh so grand
From having all four seasons to only having two
Sometimes can make you crazy but never feeling blue

The skies here in the desert, are always very clear
When back up North the skies are gray and tend to make you tear
Moving down has given me a new look at my life
Another chapter, another poem, having coffee with my wife....

Brian Hill - 2020 # 2

There is always a way to gain in life's joys
It's not just about the noise and the toys
I think it's what you can learn and unmask
To be able to use what the world has on task
You must have eyes open to see what is there
See all that you can and always, always share

Brian Hill - 2019 # 320

New Thing Haiku

Thinking of new things
Controls the wants of old things.
How do you stop it?

Brian Hill - 2019#62
Inspired by thinking about new stuff...!

Uncover yourself
Do you see
What you have become

Brian Hill - 2019 # 282

I see the sunrise
nature never disappoints
such a simple act

Brian Hill - 2020 # 134

Can you recycle
It's the same as repurpose
Improve with your change

Brian Hill - 2020 # 21

Pain is hard to see
Imagine how hard it is
Why does hurt soooo?

Brian Hill 2019#97
Inspired by my senior dog...!

I recently loved
I loved everything I could
Was I wrong in that

I believe in love
I believed everyone loved
Was I wrong in that

Do all creatures love
All creatures need to exist
Are they wrong in that

Is love part of life
I believe love needs to be
Am I wrong with this?

Brian Hill - 2019 # 261

How many chances
How many opportunities
How many failures...

Brian Hill - 2019 # 158

People Haiku

People do their best.
At the time they do their best?
Do The best you can...!

Brian Hill - 2019- February

There is sunshine where clouds once were
There was rain and now there are clear skies
The skies are once again showing us the simplicity
Simplicity of nature is the sophistication of life today

Brian Hill - 2019 # 268

What is it about
Does anyone really know
Does anyone care

Brian Hill - 2019 # 311

We can’t see the problem because we’re too near.
Step back and review, it may get more clear...
I’m sure we all know this, but we often forget
We have to believe it, so we can re-set....

Brian Hill - 2020 # 15

Do you find yourself needing
Needing things that don't make sense
Sensical things that don't need to be needed
Needing is a human need I think
Thinking of things to un-need is a goal
A goal that I shouldn't need....

Here is the time where my brain exploded AGAIN!

Brian Hill - 2019 # 184

hello
this is him
no I don't need a burial plot
what's wrong with you people
how did you get this number
what
the obits
no way
I'm not dead yet...

Brian Hill - 2020 # 65

we dream so we can SEE past what's real
we dream so we can GET past what's real
we dream so we can REACH above
we dream so we can STAND outside of ourself
we dream so we don't DWELL in despair
we fantasize existence, unlike reality...

Brian Hill - 2020 # 102

Can you make up your mind?
What?
Why, oh why, did you decide on that?
What?
Oh, I get it....  
Not really but...
I have to admit the end result is pretty good
Remember life is a series of decisions..!

Brian Hill - 2019 # 248

It's not crazy,
wanting life to be more.
What really is more,
How do we explore?

I think it takes time,
to really decide.
What's more, to one,
may not be the guide.

More, is more,
this is a fact.
Do you need it for sure,
to stay on track?

Can you do, what you do,
without finding more?
Are you stuck in the mud,
can't find the door?

That door, is often,
shut and it's locked.
Is more, just a key,
to unlock the lock?

Before you can tell,
if more, is a need.
Take time to review,
then slowly proceed...

Brian Hill - 2019#61
Inspired by a song about MORE!

After the sun sets
Darkness comes
Pure total darkness

Brian Hill - # 24

Is it understood that time is of no value
It's wasted
It passes
It creates aged elements

What if time ceased
Think hard about this
Hard, I mean think heavy

What if time sped up
This needs to be considered
In all quirks of the natural world

Time is unexplained
Time possesses numerous undertakings
Time, is it on our side?

Brian Hill - # 223

immersed in fear and new challenges
the green, green grass of yesterday is still growing
still developing in all of our minds
our minds are the advantage that overtakes the fear
do not underestimate this truth
you will get it wrong...

Brian Hill - 2020 # 90

My eyes were opened
Many clouds
Sunshine will follow

Brian Hill - 2020 # 23

It's tough to inspire
Tell me what inspires you
It might be simple

It could be something you see
It could be something you feel
Each day brings on new whispers
The whispers come from within
Softly speaking to your mind

Inspiration comes
Inspiration leaves quickly
Listen to whispers
