i like to watch the stars as  they come out at night.
shining in the sky  its such a lovely sight.

twinkling just like diamonds on a golden ring.
just to watch them shine is such a wonderous thing.

forming into shapes making pictures of there own.
way up high above in the great unknown
.
there so full of wonder and such delight to see
wandering round the heavens floating wild and free.

woken by sultry rain
droplets big fat splots
upon my window pane
feeds the need
to feel your skins warmth
next to me
in nights dark pitch
knowing
at my fingers reach
you are here
closer, so near
not kept from me
by swirling vast seas
It hurts
pulling your pillow
in close
wrapping my body around it
whispering your name
is not the same
as feeling your breath
upon my skin
your touch
that I need so much
the rain falls
on and on
pushes me
through this barren night
til dawns light
breaks me apart
with it tears at my heart.

New Leaf

I’m on a new
Path today

A different kind
Of way

A way
just begun

A path
I know none

But the path
I will take today

I’m SixtySome
I’ve had my fun

But time
To turn a leaf

A side
I don’t know

But it’s
Where
I will go

I’m on a new
Path today...

Silence is the loudest sound,
It's distracting,
It wakes people up,
It reminds them what life's worth,
It reminds them of fear.

On the other hand...

Silence is peace,
It is the absence of thought,
It is you melting with the universe,
It is the softest end,
To the loudest beginning.
