How special Mother dearest
You are to me
I love you so
Even when I scream
No doubt about it
Your the greatest
Treasure I could find
Even though I don't act like it
I'm glad your mine

This life has been filled with trouble
Battles galore
Sometimes
I wanted to coward and run
But I could not
For I was the chosen one

Way up in the tree tops
Is a place I'd like to be
Making my way up
I know The Most Highs presence
Will meet me
Way up in the tree tops
Like the squirrels I see
Up above the trials
And life that drains me
Way up in the tree tops
A place where I find peace

Just across the creek
I could see a glimpse of hope
As I stared at my reflection in the water
The air was fresher
The grass was greener
the flowers colors were so vivid
They appeared to dance
Just across the creek
In the air sparkled healing
You just needed to reach up
And wholeness and other good things were in the trees
Just across the creek
I pondered on the thought of going over
Although it was wider than I could jump
My feet would have to get wet
If I wanted to experience abundant health
I stepped in the water
It refreshed
When my feet touched the bank
I began to rejoice
Leaping and prancing my way through a wonderland
Of just what I needed
As I reached up and out
that which held me captive set me free
Now I'm no longer bound
No more chains holding me back
Because I ignored my carnal mind
And gave way to the supernatural
Just across the creek

Ever untouched by prying eyes
Your incandescence knows no price
No quantity of gold could wager
Your glimmering translucency

For beauty sits through frosted glass
It knows no mirror image
In sunny spells it lights the way
Just possible to distinguish

At night it sits upon the lake
Which ruminates inside your head
To change you but remain unchanged
To glow when couples wed

You are the anthropomorphism
Of waves on a summers day
You are the moment two opposing
Paths conjoin in harmony

In the instance your cover’s blown
Your reflection sits untampered
For that instant your delicate soul
Lies naked, conserved, unhampered

For all of this I sit in awe
As viscous silver streams
Carve channels at your feet
Ejecting precious molten metals

Which ignite with scorching heat
I find the strength to sit up
Then rise up onto my knees
Put out your hand and pull me up

I feel so deeply of your beauty
I cannot help but smile
When I think of your gift to me
It strikes me that time has passed

Since the sun shone to illuminate
Just how grateful I am to have an
Opposing path through frosted glass
A flower to my unkempt leaves.

Be careful who you hook up with
There is no such thing as a one night stand
That person lingers around
Their in your thoughts
You can never forget them
Good or bad
Their there    
Whether you want them to be
Or not
May have even picked up some feelings
That aren't your own
Perhaps some habits
That are unfamiliar
This is a warning
Be very very careful
You can get up and leave
But what you laid down with
Sits down
And makes itself at home

I hear the whispers of the dead
Crying because their end had come too soon
People who had no regard  took from them life
I hear the voices of the dead talking
About those who had dealt with them
In a way that did not please their maker
Killing them
Hanging them
****** them
Taking away their children
Forcing them to build up their wealth
And destroying their self worth
I hear groans of agony
Pains of what was
And what is to come
The dead knows
They hurt even still
Wishing they could help
Do something that would change things
Say something that would heal up the wounds
The dead know its all in vain
What must be
Must be
Their soul cries
For the living
Who are dead
But not yet buried
Their soul cries
