i went to the kennels to find some company
someone to rely on always there for me
a friend that i could rescue who need someone to
to find a proper home that he never knew

i saw a german shepard he looked straight at me
i fell in love with him almost instantly
now i had friend that i was looking for
someone i could love worship and adore

now we both had friends that we were looking for
with a lasting friendship for now and evermore
everywhere i go he is there with me
guess the visit to the kennels it was meant to be

when your love is true it is there to stay
there to last a lifetime never go away
happiness and joy there will alway be
to last you for a lifetime for eternity

with a love so strong that will never die
that will never change as the years go bye
a very special  bond  that will never break away
in your heart for ever your love will always stay
Light bulbs are redundant
When Kayla walks in -
bathing every person and surface
with the flood lamps of her smile.

She smiles when she dances
and smiles when she sings
while two grateful women
who precede her in lineage
draw their bows across the strings.

None would ever suspect
that this fountain of joy
had once wanly trembled
in the valley of shadows.

Yet no matter how vilely
leukemia fought and clawed
to claim her for its own
it never really stood a chance

for Kayla had steps to dance
and songs to sing
and millions of smiles to smile
and would not be denied.

You feel your blanket hugging you so comfy
Blanket feel your tardiness and pain
You feel your pillow like resting in the cloud
Pillow feel your tears and restless playful mind and heavy heart.
Pillow x Blanket
Knows your secrets
Knows your anger
Knows your weakness
Knows your fears
Knows your pain
Knows your dream
Knows your happiness.
Happy little space.
The rainbow’s bright colors gazed out of their prism, speculatively, cautiously, almost contrarily, with no wall to paint their patterned pictures on, fading into irrelevance as they vanished into the void .

Time ; torturous and tyrannical, toyed with the torrential turbulence, as it’s transitive tenaciousness thoughtlessly, tactlessly, tooled through the torrid tempest .

The starry-eyed girl gazed glassily across the expanse as if in a quandary over the night sky .

A half human silhouette in a sky filled with thunder heads and birds of prey rooted in a tapestry of alien galaxies and blazing stars playing a melodian .

Water glistened on the skin of the naked woman and rainbows danced in the air before her as the waves crashed against the rocks .

A young man with a pony tail in the center of the back side of his head played his drum while he danced on the grass .
When you come back
Please bring your all
Because by then
I might forget
The things we shared
Our mother
Our father
The place we grew
In secret
Our shared life space
I will wait for you
Loss of a sibling. Not me. Just Trying to comprehend.
