Don't let the OVERCAST keep you from BREAKING THROUGH with that said: RELEASE THOSE SUNRAYS!!!
Where has my LOVE GONE
for my LOVE has GONE ASTRAY
to the POINT of no RETURN
So DISTANT and FAR, FAR AWAY

My LOVE is NO LONGER AROUND
So, from this TRAUMA I DO PRAY
To MEND MY BROKEN HEART and
FIND HAPPINESS AGAIN ONE DAY!!!

It's about time for
a much needed VACATION!!
To CHILL, to HAVE FUN,
but most off,
some RELAXATION!!
Let go of the FRUSTRATION,
BATHE yourself into
SATISFACTION!!!
Take a BREAK, take a TOUR,
go on a TRIP, and
so much more!!
LAY ON THE BEACH;
WORK ON YOUR TAN;
snorkel in the water,
GET BURIED IN THE SAND!!!!
JUST LET GO and just Be Free,
You need you a Break,
go on a LONG LEAVE,
a GET AWAY is what
you really NEED!!
Just take off, GO AWAY,
to a desserted Island,
and have a FIELD DAY!!
Ride the WAVES,
sail on a YACHT,
Or just do nothing,
go on and KICK BACK!!!
Have time for yourself,
you need to just BREATHE;
a much needed VACATION
is ALL YOU REALLY NEED!!!

Water puddles from a heavy rain
Gray clouds above as they calmly remain,
The air is fresh, the temp is so cool,
No signs of sunshine or skies of blue

The Rain is Pouring from the clouds of gray
Splashing all over, what a Rainy day,
So, wear your Rain gear, coats and rubbers,
Please try to stay dry and avoid water puddles

Like a box of crayons,
We come in many shades, and
in many different colors,
Shades and skintones, we
Precede one another.
We have the reds, and
the Oranges galore,
and the rest of the colors,
that we certainly do adore.
We are like crayons,
We start off as perfect, but
When we're worned down,
We are tattered and broken,
We are still useful, although
our essence had faded,
We're used less and less, and
We start to feel degraded,
We are like these crayons,
We are still around, but
Our purpose becomes useless,
as we are dwindling on down!!!

If we could
walk together
hand and hand,
On one accord,
like-minded,
with the same
thoughts of Unity
As in oneness,
togetherness,
wholeness every
race, creed
or color Red,
Yellow,  
Black, White,
Charcoal Black
Snow White,
Ivory, Olive
complexion
or whatever
UNDER THE GRACE OF GOD!!!
AS IT SAYS: ONE NATION UNDER GOD!!!
THEN WE ARE ALL UNITED!!!!
NOW CAN I GET A AMEN!!!!!!!

If we only do this our world would be a better place!!!
When a POET DIES,
There WORDS LIVE ON,
They KEEP US ENCOURAGED,
MOTIVATED and STRONG
There WORDS DO INSPIRE,
To LIFTING us HIGHER,
When your DOWN AND OUT,
THEY MAKE YOUR DAY BRIGHTER,
A PEP IN YOUR STEP,
you FEEL MUCH MORE LIGHTER,
When a POET DIES,
There WORDS they will STAY,
THEY'LL CONTINUE to INSPIRE US
to this VERY DAY!!!!

There are many Great Poets that have passed on and to this day, we still read There Great works.
When Loneliness is your spouse,
You two can lounge around in the house,
Be bored, say nothing and just be still,
Don't interact, just kick back and mainly just chill.

There's no talking back, no nagging, no sound
The House is so still that there's no one around
The lonely sets in, its just you alone,
Being in SOLITUDE is what is now shown

No backtalkling, nagging or even arguments,
Just a quiet still calmness
that is heaven sent

There's nothing wrong
with ISOLATION,
To be by yourself and
have RESTORATION,
It allows you the time
to be with one's self
Recooperate yourself
minus everybody else

There's nothing wrong
with having guest, but after
they leave you settle and rest,

So, happy to see them,
but, now it's time for them to leave
You finally unwind, relax
and can breathe

This one just came to me, IDK what do you guys think???? I'm just letting the words flow. I think it sounds crazy!!!
There is a PLACE WHERE
the FREE can GO RUN and PLAY,
FRESH AIR, SUNSHINE, and
HAPPINESS ALL DAY!!
JUST FEELING so FREE, and
FEELING SO ALIVE,
In the OPEN OUTDOORS
where we CAN FROLIC and STRIVE.
HAPPY-GO-LUCKY, FREE and WILD, No BARRIERS are HERE to HOLD US DOWN
To BE ENERGETIC, WITHOUT no ARRAY,
FANCY FREE, and LET LOOSE where we
CAN RUN and GO PLAY!!!

Things of Yesterday
are gone like
Whispers in the Wind,
carrying them away,
To never see the Light of Day,
To be Blinded by the Dark of Night,
To never see the Sun Shine Bright,
The Whispers of Yesterday,
Have fluttered away, and gone astray,
The voices that were heard,
The speaking of soft words,
You barely hear them,
Just under a breath,
Upon a Whimper,
is where they rest.
Whispers of Yesterday,
Are all now gone,
Now, Turning soft whipsers
into a sad Love Song!!!

It was a
DARK and STORMY
night of
ALL HALLOWS EVE,
Where the spooks
roam the night,
and have you quivering
in your knees,
Such Cold chill in the air,
Is a creatures
delight,
To run up on you and
****** you,
is your biggest fright.
They do it with force
and they do it with ease,
To seek what they want
and to chase who
they please.
As you Shriek in fear,
The creature is near,
You try to run and hide,
TOO LATE,
COS, IT'S HERE!!!!
Your Teeth start to
chattering,
and your knees are shaking
hearing WHISPERS in
the DARK and you are
suddenly awakened
You look around,
for the frighted sounds,
But there's no one around,
SO YOU START TO WIND DOWN.
THIS HALLOWS NIGHT HAS
GONE TO YOUR HEAD, BUT
YOU'RE SAFE IN YOUR HOUSE,
SO YOU GO RIGHT TO BED.
The COLD and the STILLNESS
of a STORMY NIGHT
Brings chills
down your spine
and gives you such a FRIGHT,
of a fate of your PLIGHT.
The WHISPERS in the DARK
of MYSTERIES ARE UNSEEN,
The hunt is on

So:

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!!

The air is breezy and
blisteringly cold,
The wind chill is high,
The temperature is so bold.

The trees are swaying in the wind,
It's cold outside and its time to go in,
The winds are cold the day is Chilly,
It's so cold outside just call me Chilly *****.

The Sun is out which is such a thrill, but
The Winds are crisp and
it's bringing us the chills,

In lieu of a cold and windy day,
I'll trade it for Sunshine to warm me today!!
The wind is cold but that's alright,
A nice warm comforter will bring me delight!!!

succeed in Life, and
if you're feeling down,
they will always be there!!
Someone out there
