we see the same stars
knowing somehow
the light enters
our corneas
at exactly
the same
time

yet we have such
varied ideas
about the

sky

we read the same books
the same letters which
make up the magical
ideograms we call

WORDS

yet our thoughts vary
as to meanings and
how they will
impact
us

but one thing we all
have in common

we ache to be understood
that our words adequately
describe our feelings
our hearts radiate
from the page to
enter readers
pupils like
the light
from

Thank you for taking me
out of myself
and teaching me to
capture my sadness
and be
"mindful"

ALL THE BEST TO YOU, POETFRIEND!
Whether I'm out on Military Drive
With my Ruca cruising the street,
I can't stay alive
Without that special meat.

I'm talking bout early morn,
Looking for a place for some comida,
When you need that taco like food ****,
You need it in your Vida.

Yeah, you have buevo ranchero,
Or maybe some bean and cheese,
But I need me some vaquero
To fill my Mexican needs.

So make me a taco,
Make it chorizo and egg,
I'm just a typical vato,
Cmon, please don't make me beg!

And now you know about my favorite dish,
Eating Mexican is like a granted wish.
From the San Antonio series of poems for my city.
God when I make it to the morning
It seems as though my worry
Has caused never ending night
Once I see that sunrise
I'll know about glory
Everything is gonna be alright
Let my hope become the morning
Let those first few drops of light
Reflect in your swimming pool eyes

No matter what I'm going through
I'll always be strong
To be strong for you

And I'll be strong
For you
If that is what you want for me to do
And I'll be strong
For you
Only if I know what you're going through

I pray for the flowers of spring
Its seems as though my sadness
Became a frozen barren forest
Once I see it thawing
I'll know about beauty
Everything is gonna be alright
Let my love become the spring
Let the warmth I have to give
Settle into your heart

No matter what I'm going through
I'll always be strong
To be strong for you
Holy bible.
John chapter 14: verses 1-6
(Jesus speaking)
“Let not your heart be troubled; you believe in God, believe also in Me. 2 In My Father’s house are many mansions;[a] if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.[b] 3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you to Myself; that where I am, there you may be also. 4 And where I go you know, and the way you know.”

5 Thomas said to Him, “Lord, we do not know where You are going, and how can we know the way?”

6 Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.
