Morning Moon
Bhill Apr 2019
The morning moon was so very present
The brightness of its glow was incredible
The desert morning sky allowed it
The sky was absent of all things
No clouds
No jet trails
No anything
Now all that is there is its memory
Beautiful things
Need to be
Seen and remembered!

Clouds of life
Bhill Jun 2019
The clouds of life are many, they come to change your day
They float around as if invited, creating chaos, and that's not okay
The storms, they bring, can be cleansing, if that's the way you feel
Allowing the storm, to run its course, will often help you heal

Clouds of life, are really not different, as clouds creating weather all around
From clear sky to cloudy, they're here and then gone, leaving marks that are often profound...

Sometimes the words fall on the page and all we have to do is arrange them...

Are we Blind?
Bhill Mar 2019
How do you if
How do you when
What you are your thoughts
Are they right
Are they wrong
Who’s opinion is it
Are they right
Are they wrong
This is a problem
This problem powers
It powers mankind
Knowing different views
Different viewpoints can help
Different viewpoints can help us
It can help us not be blind
Being blind is MANKIND....

Brian Hill - 2019#78

Today’s world is so filled with vast amounts of opinions..

Lost Humanity

another scattered day looking for lost humanity
look behind every rock
look behind every nook
look behind every cranny
        think, just think
where would you be, if you were humanity
where would you go, if you lost yourself
        look, just look...

Name that THING
Bhill Mar 2019
Are you tired of, that same old thing?
Tell us all that thing, then you can sing.

What really is that same old thing?

                    Is the thing
                        a thing
           that stops your swing?

                        Is it old
                          mold
                     super cold?

                    Is it dragging
                        sagging
                possibly nagging?

                      Is it painful
                        shameful
                 not at all grateful?

                What is that thing?
                  Name that thing!
                  Hit that swing....!

Brian Hill - 2019#63
Inspired by changing up that thing...
Before you can change it up you have to give it a name...

Looking Down...
Bhill Nov 2020
up in the clouds, is where we are
floating around our very own star
how can it be, we ended up here
we are so high and it seems unclear
the world below is all f-ckd up
I'm looking down and it seems corrupt
time will tell if a correction will come
I'll wait up here, till my sanity is numb....

A New Day
Bhill Mar 2019
Can you see it yet
Here it comes
It's coming up slowly
The sun is on its way
The sun has begun its slow rise
Its rise over the horizon
Over the horizon to reveal many fingers of light
Fingers reaching out
Highlighting the peaks on the opposite side
Reaching out to begin a new day
To touch each of us with it glorious newness
A day as new and fresh as any before
Have a fresh and new day....

Brian Hill - 2019#77
Mornings inspire me...
Mornings are a true inspiration for me...
Have some fresh new sun fingers today!

Quandary...
Bhill Apr 2019
The vastness of the desert is a quandary
It is a quandary of vast proportions
Realizing just how vast it is
Is a quandary all of its own
How do we get over the quandary?

Just wondering!!!

Brian Hill - 2019#102
Inspired again by our desert....
Where we live is an everyday inspiration...
It is mind mending.!
Bhill Apr 2019
Do you know when you’re vulnerable
Do you take on the challenge
Do you have the courage to accept
To accept the need for fear
To take on the challenge
When you are vulnerable...?

It takes courage to act on your vulnerability...

Life Storms
Bhill Jun 2019
Every day starts out with a brand new rising sun
Sometimes the glow is there and sometimes there is none

Planning on the glow is a pretty safe way to go
But life has storms, disrupting plans, and changing what we know

You never know exactly, when the storms of life will show
I can only suggest you plan two paths so you don't slow up your flow...

Is this true...?
Bhill Jun 2019
Did you ever hear the tale about the 2 dead boys
They got up to play one dark night in the middle of the day
It must have been dark because they were not seen
Except by some blind dude on the corner
They got up to go back to back and face each other
I heard they drew swords and then we're shot
Deaf people heard all the commotion and then,
And then killed those 2 dead boys....

What is happening today?

I'm just not sure this is true...

Deserts Gig...
Bhill May 2019
Cactus plants are amazing, in oh, so many ways
They live on little water, in fact, they can go for days

The protection they have is ruthless, with thorns as large as life
Those thorns can stick and tear you, as of they were a knife

When given time and proper rain, the bloom they share is gorgeous
Colors coming, from such a plant, is like an optical chorus

The Joshua and the Prickly, even the Barbary fig
All have blooms that will blow your mind, but it's just the deserts gig...

Brian Hill - 2019#121
Inspired by the cactus bloom
Living in the desert is so much more beautiful than I would have thought...

Life's Learning Room
Bhill Mar 2019
We are here on this earth, but what is this place?
It's home to us all, so we all have our space.

The largest room is the room called life.
It can be a breeze or sharp as a knife.

You can learn a lot, or lose a great deal.
This room is also, a room that can heal.

This room we call life, it's a wonderful room.
It's also quite scary, don't ever assume.

You will learn as you grow,
Teach as you know.
When you are done, you get to just go....

Brian Hill - 2019#69
Life has ways of moving along at a pretty fast pace.
Remember we are here on this earth and must share this space...

Time....?
Bhill Apr 2019
Time passes with elegance
It plays with our mind daily
Is it controllable
What if it is
Would you choose to not age
Would you choose to move to the future
Would you choose to recreate a past event
What would be the benefit of time control
Think about it today
Revisit it tomorrow, if there is one
Just a thought.....

Early Thoughts
Bhill May 2019
The day started out with a distant sleep induced thought
I was sure that my memory would kick in
That my memory would kick in and let me in on that thought
I was certain that the thought would remain long enough
Long enough to be real
To be real and turn that sleep induced thought into an action
What was I thinking
Was I thinking
Was I
Oh ****,
I’m still asleep....!

Brian Hill - 2019#114
Inspired by those early morning brain rants that you swear you would remember....
Great thoughts sometimes are forgotten...
Hate when you know for sure you had the idea that would change the world...
Alas, you can’t remember it...!

Lost...Or?
Bhill Mar 2019
Which way is home, I seem to be lost
Is it back here, over there, it appears I am tossed

Is it right or left, I can't seem to recall
Up street or down, do I walk, run or crawl

What's the matter with me, I seem so confused
Did I fall down the stairs, if so am I bruised

Which way is home, is all that I need
Can you fill me in, and let me proceed

Have I been here before, if so where is this
Will I go somewhere else, do you think I am missed

How will I get there, do I know how to drive
I don't think I care, as long as I arrive.

I know what this is, I figured it out
It's a dream, it's a dream, without any doubt.

Is it true, please tell me, am I really asleep
No I'm not, ***, these feelings are so deep....

Have long have I been here, will I ever return
I don't think I know you
who are you, Who Are You
WHO ARE YOU????

Brian Hill - 2019#67

Is something coming
Bhill Apr 2019
Every day you wake up, something will come along
That something will be something, and it may be right or wrong

That something might be pleasant, or it could be really bad
You never can expect it, it may make you glad or sad

It's part of life to have it, its the part that makes life roll
It's the part you can't see coming and the part you can't control

What can you do with something, as it hits you with surprise
You can take it on, with surprise of your own, and that is not unwise

Brian Hill - 2019#82

Dinner is Served
Bhill Oct 2020
the hawk waited for his meal while resting atop the fence post
gazing intensely at the old dirt road for activity
the storm, that just passed, left a muddy mess for his prey to splash in
suddenly, from under the gate, he saw movement
a gesture so slight and insignificant that only a hawk's sharp eyes could see
and see it, he does
slowly, ever so slowly, he begins a slow, engineered glide, from the post top
swooping in to gracefully capture his target
dinner is served...!

Open your eyes...!
Bhill Mar 2019
As the day starts up,
you open your eyes,
what goes through your mind?
Are you after new beginnings,
or are you staying blind?

Staying blind is fine for some of you,
let's hope, it's not for all,
Without the ones,
who can see it though,
time would seem to stall.

Don't get me wrong,
there are those here,
who really DON'T want to know.
How and why,
the world really works,
and,
what it takes to GROW!

Be not, the one,
who causes the stall,
and keeps us in the dark.
Start your day,
with open eyes,
and,
give the day some spark...!

Brian Hill - 2019#57
Inspired by just opening my eyes to see...
My mornings are spent with a cup of coffee after walking my dogs...
I open my eyes to all things surrounding me.
I fill my soul with the new day...

Who Said That?
Bhill May 2019
Some things today lead your thoughts the wrong way
Wondering what was that, what is that, can ruin your day

Stop it now, forget it, so your day can be fixed
The sooner the better, to stay out of the mix

Sometimes, some subjects should remain closed up
Don't argue about it, just leave it in the cup

Take the easy way out and keep your mouth closed
Then no one can blame you, if they really opposed

This simple thing seems, like it should be really easy
Today, with strange facts, it's not so easy peasy

Brian Hill - 2019#108
Opinions vs facts are out of control...
This is my thoughts on that..!

You can decide how to handle it.
Handle with care!
