So I will write
A love letter to the flower
That withers not.
Or send a rose to the love
That dies not.
Beauty lying in perpetuity.
My tender passions fulfilled
For everlasting.
Desire turned inside out,
Heaven still lewd.
I will hold on,
I will still love
When all melody stops.
When the drought ends.
In the coldness of hell.
You are the flower
That will still blossom.

The sane say
Time is just the wake of the arrow as it flies
in the direction of increasing entropy.
In the order of chaos, we move outward
along the spiral until we can't hold on anymore.
And then we die.

The sane say
Life on Earth is a system of self-sustaining matter.
The carbon from the ooze that learns how to learn
That opens its eyes to sing in canon and
hold on tight to one another.

The sane say
The one begets the other.
Ashes to ashes / Dust to dust
The neutron star collapses and the eye turns to watch it explode.
And so the universe creates the instrument of its own destruction.
Order-makers in the chaos made.
Watchers in the dark.

Lift resists gravity. Drag resists ******.
Passion resists apathy.
And we all resist destruction.

The sane say
Smile.
The sane say
Dance.

The sane say it all pulls it all apart so
for life's sake,
hold on tighter.

The sane say,
Live.

A small little outstretched hand, cradles the big finger, clutching on. The mother looks at her child and smiles brightly, how this bundle of joy came from her she would never understand but the love she had for her child was so abundant and clear.
Softly humming a lullaby and rocking back and forward, a man walks in with a brightly smiled face and adoring eyes.

He whispers to the mother “Now this, this is us starting our own little family.”

The mother looks up and plants a quick kiss on the man's lips, she looks back at her child and says “It's gonna be one adventure after another, with our bundle of joy.”

The man embraces both mother and child and they all fall asleep one after another.
Today you were born
And I wasn't there
I wanted to be

I wanted to hear you first coo
I wanted to tell you
Welcome to this world
I love you

I wanted to capture the beginning
To put pictures in a book for you
You are my grandson
Your daddy is my son

He has made me so proud
He has grown into a amazing
man
I am so excited for you
Your life will be filled with love
With fun and adventure
You are my joy
Your grandma loves you
and just know
I will always be here for you
Happy Birthday Rex Emil Bear

It's good to make you smile
by simply being myself

You too make me smile
effortlessly

Let's make more time
together
and make less effort
Here's to easy

A poem is like a tickle,
it gives both joy and pain:
with blissful tears and tearful giggles,
you'll read that poem again.

A poem is like a damaged heart in need of surgery:
a cut that heals,
a line that leaves a scar
along your heart.

in the wild, no one would spare a glance.
no part of you is a flaw in nature’s design.
please, continue to dance with the wind
and let fire rage in your heart.
I wish, I was a Rainbow Colour.
That defined My Life, at Night.
One that made Me look, a lot more Fuller.
One with which, I'd shine Bright.
Yellow is a Colour, that's Contagious,
It has a Smile, that's on a Boil.
It's the centre of Joy and Happiness.
A Life without Work and Toil.
In Red, I would look Bold and Handsome.
I would stand out, in the Crowd.
Warning all, When there's danger around,
I would move around, like a Cloud.
Green is a Colour that matches Nature,
I would be ready to Jet, Set....Go.
It is Zealous and has lot of Passion
Sky is the limit, l can Grow.
I would look Suave , if I was a White.
But actually I'm Black and Blue.
Life has painted Me with these 2 Colours
and I'm stuck to them like Glue.

In life's vast tapestry, where shadows loom,
Amidst the storm, within the gloom,
There lies a beacon, small yet bright,
A glimmer of hope, a guiding light.

It's found within, deep in your soul,
A radiant warmth, making you whole.
A simple curve, upon your face,
Can brighten any somber place.

Through trials and tribulations, you may tread,
With burdens heavy, and dreams unsaid.
But oh, dear heart, don't lose your way,
For a smile can turn night into day.

When sorrow knocks upon your door,
And doubts assail you to the core,
Let your smile be a steadfast shield,
Against the darkness, it shall wield.

Let it dance upon your lips so true,
A testament to all that you've been through.

For in this world, so vast and wide,
A smile can be a soothing tide.
It heals the wounds, it mends the soul,
And makes broken spirits once more whole.

Remember, dear friend, to smile bright,
For in your smile, lies endless light.

It can make even the coldest heart feel.
