I loved my gardening but as well the oldies
Nothing much went to the tip filled it so
My favourite Bearded Iris loved them
But always the old Snap Dragons to grow

Buckets old boots wheel barrows too
Jonquils and Snow drops loved my roses
Fragrent always strong in masses where ever
At times annoy delicate and touchy noses

Merigols pretty and very useful where they
Buttercups loved them throwing then around
Handfulls of wildflower seeds I'd throw about
Digging in wet newspaper for worms in the ground

My garden my home outside  loved as much as any
Little nooks to sit and read think awhile under trees
Magnolia's port wine pink and white I loved ever so
Even upon a lovely springtime night and breeze

Anything no longer useful I filled it up with Azalias
Loved blosom on the fruit trees where ever I could
If I still lived in the Snowy Valley I'd still do these things
Planting mosses in any old piece of rotting wood

This Beautiful Morning

This morning still calm flying ever slow
Glancing at the many views so far below
Sunshine lighting early dimness of day
Gentle breezes among clouds find a way

Mountains to the left valleys to the right
Sloping pines a glow with dew from night
A new day born still free from any plight
Natures kindness with love a beautiful sight

As lone bird glides high with peace of mind
Bringing gentle feelings for hearts to find
Flowers wild upon falling slopes every kind
Nature painting pictures of colors to bind

This life being a class in a very big school
University life if you call it anything at all
The further you go the harder the lessons are
Treat it as a joke ..... Well it's your call

Those without legs .. Or very often worse still
Are way further than the healthy wealthy here
Have come back to perfect lessons harder to pass
While so many take time to not be all that sincere

So many full of themselves with little respect fo aged
And endless who've done that longest ever mile
So many even younger this day and age much to learn
And think lifes a joke but karma takes away that smile

Never mind others your the one with homework to do
So many drive don't know where the carburettas belongs
Time more worked harder on the within sincerely
Life is not the latest clothing and much loved songs

Good Samaritan
Courteous to the stranger
Let us act
Tortured for days
After the fact
Kindness is a virtue
It will never try to hurt you
But consequences come around
Least expected
No good deed ever goes undetected
Karma seems to be counterintuitive
The good are punished
And evil has become imperative
Of the utmost significance
And extremely necessary
The dark age of man has
Marked its territory
Humanity is torn apart
The cost of the soul
Is a broken heart
Look to the world to find some meaning
The only solace we have is while we’re dreaming...

In Australia there is an old story
About a big monster in a lake~
It apparently is good eating
But to catch it patience it takes~
The only thing it will bite on
Seems as told is real hot beer~
So if you go Bunyip fishing
Always have a few cartons of it stacked near~
You put a hot beer onto a strong line
And place it in the best spot~
Then wait for the Bunyip to bite
You have not got to wait a lot~
When you think that the beer might be getting cold
You pull it in again~
And put another hot beer on the line
And then you do the same~
Each time the beer gets cold
Pull it in and throw out another~
As bunyips they dont like cold beer
But never take your mother~
I once showed this Bunyip fishing to a friend
And he asked me sitting there and looking puzzed~
Well .... What do you do then with all the cold beer
Oh .. I said .. I guess it just gets guzzled~

I've learned all teachers of life taught me
I have always walked a strictest lin
Did all those who are my equals said to
And might I say did them better more so fine

But before my soul decided another lesson
To be born to free to be the captain of my soul
Way over time I researched few things sublime
And listenened to this very own soul of mine

Who gave any the right to instruct their way
Upon my soul since it became myself long ago
Its time I let go and its  time I flew to feelings new
Its time I listened to my souls experience to know

Time I undressed time I confessed its simplytime
That I took over inmy own souls fields of clover true
Well over time I ignored their oh so holy advice
Loved life more hell to heaven all things old and new

Time for a time I knew moments so fine ever sublime
Time I undressed confessed and by passed this mess
Well over time I loved more this soul of mine
And with a likwise thinker spent time and flew

(( I'VE  NEVER  BEEN  TO  ME  ))

Early yet I wondered in morning sunlight
Down along the garden stone created way
Naturally and beautiful delights they grew
Welcoming this gentle early garden way

Then I saw an exotic bloom I'd forgotten
I'd given up on it performing some time ago
Facing myself from within a protected spot
As if  saying softly  life's not all that bad its so

Life goes on as if a gentle song if only all to sing
Theres always heartbreak pain to find in life
Almost all of  it could be decided over a table
Sadly  many get kicks out of causing others strife

Theres never an end to destroying others lives
Be it religions politics or I'm king of castle game
With as much positive effort the end result of it
Might allow  blooms like this one sun and rain

Simply and naturally it bloomed undisturbed
Giving what comes naturally be it day or night
Allowing other blooms to do likewise peacefully
With love as it was meant to be without any plight

To think such wisdom comes from an exotic bloom
Distpite what endless others think it should be
Bring love peace of mind and such sublime beauty  
Giving credit to all things positive and naturally

Today I heard my mummy yodel
I never thought she could~
I thought that she never liked that music
But she really sounded good~
So I ran out to listen
And she was laying upon the floor~
With the biggest cockroach upon her dress
That I've ever seen before~
I thought that she'd gone country
And that she changed her mind it's true~
When I got out there she was'nt yodeling
But yelling things that were true blue~
Then she got up and started dancing
Steps I never thought she knew~
Because she could no longer find that cockroach
He must have been effected too~
I thought my mum had gone all country
She sounded pretty good~
I think she should go country
I really wished she would ~

Please help me to build my self esteem
And please be patient with me in some areas
For I maybe according to some a late bloomer,
I need my sense of dignity
So please do not belittle me in front of others
For I will take far more notice of you if you
speak to me in private in an understanding voice,
I need to feel good about myself so please do not
ridicule me in front of others or imply my inopropriate
behaviour means that I am bad as it wears down my sense
of self worth,
When you experience somethen annoying within your day
please do not take it out upon me,
I am far more capable than you could imagine,
Please help me to blossom and reach my highest potential
by giving me lots of encouragement and understanding
as the more I feel safe and protected the more my inner self will risk being shown,Please remember I thrive on love and understanding but surely I do not have to tell you that do I ,
Please do not ever compare me with others or anybody else,
I just want you to love and like me for simply who I am,All you have to do is know that I love you far more than I ever could say .

To Far To The Ground ( part1& I Am Now Still ( part 2 )

A write about f a friend I helped once
in a time of dire strates .. TRUE ..

To Far To The ground .. Poem 1

As I watch the leaves falling.....
Falling....sofly ... gently
Dying ... Landing down upon the ground
I feel a breeze upon my rough face
And as I look back upon my life
I think .... Yes thats my trouble ..
Always thinking~
And as I walk along a country track
I see two birds flying Together
Side by side ..Slowly
And I wonder
Do they appreciate being together
Yes ... Thats my trouble
Always wondering.....
Then .. I reach for a smoke
A drink
And I recall an old dream
Oh God ... I silently cry
Whats this life all about for me
As I then feel at the end of my teather....
Life... This life of mine
Have I like an apple remained upon the tree
Way too long...
Is .... It .... time .... I fell
But ..... I have not at this point in time the courage
It's way too far to the ground~

AND POEM  2   .. I AM NOW STILL

When I thought all was indeed lost
When all my very dreams seemed as if
They all had died and faded away
When i could no longer find the answers
To problems I thought  had no way
To get my mind around
And no way they could be solved
And there seemed no way out.......
When i was about to throw in the towel
Give it all up as a bad joke
For thats what it all then seemed
Then ........Only then .......
Did I find
An outstretched hand....
A friend ...
A true friend ....
One who offered me a way out..
And as if shelter from my storm...
And .... All because ..
A true friend .. Right then existed ...
I .... Am .... Now .... Still ....

Not the poetry I wish to write each day
But this is now not going to go away
As long as the insane run life their way
Weighting minds for awhile here to stay

Where is the natural contenting dawn
If today  was run by children the fawn
Lifes woe would go away thus to yawn
But children taught from being born

But from birth parents how they insist
The rest grow thus to live never kissed
Bad news world wide happiness missed
The joys of life almost a  dream wished

It never should be would be this way
If endless followers got a life today
And a world if ignorance to go away
Natures anger instead would play

Raised in the strictest family ever
Everything had to be just right always
So much time alone in her bedroom
And school during all the week long days

It seemed life was going passed so quickly
And her family never seemed to ever care
No proms no dates no boyfriends no fun
A life she mostly could not handle or bare

A very beautiful young woman growing older
A mother thought she was the best in town
With a father ex army major with attitude  
And life was more than just getting her down

One day a young guy moved in next door
And of a night he'd watch hoping to see
A glimce of this attractive young woman
That alone always she to him seemed to be

One night she caught him watching her window
She closed the curtains as soon as she could
Then she whispered oh to hell with all of this
Ripped open the curtains naked full view stood

Between his and her room a big widest tree
Limbs that formed ever so A highway to cross
She pointed at it as to indicate him to use it
Thinking of my soul I am captain and boss

They spent more time together after that
Than her and her stuffed old teddy bear
Each and every time learning more of each other
Appeared to kept her values plus a few not to share

It's really a shame nobody to blame
But not being able to add a pic to explain
A write a poem upon this site HelloPoetry
Mostly why I use www.etastic a lot again

If that was possible it would be grand
Many would know why you say what you say
But I've looked and tried to find a .immage transfer
But no luck so far as it goes without cost upon this day ..

TO  THE  MUSIC  OF …..

Long ago its all so true
I just wanted to be like you
Now I'm older right through
My songs poetry as well too

After all of my life still do
Share my words with all of you
Wishing I'd have met you too
All to read here red white and blue

This song I adore ….
https://youtu.be/1o4s1KVJaVA


Guess I'll write till my pen runs
out of ink
Then they'll flush me down the sink
Smile have a drink and give a wink
But my poetry and songs forever I think

To Thine Own Self Be True

( With due concideration of and for others )
  I sent this to a poetic Angel I admire
  but thought I'd pop it on anyway .. )

When you think you've reached a dead end
In life .. simply choose a new direction~
There's a million doors yet to open
That need no effort for detection~
To quit is not the answer
Choose another way to go~
Therese a new life waiting for you
People who will love you so~
Its all a question of truth and destiny
To find the reasons you were born~
What you've to do within your lifetime
Every day from dawn till dawn~
Don't ever be discouraged by the quitters
Know in your heart you deserve the best~
Search for it honestly and deliberately
Know you've got what it takes to pass the test~
If you need to calm the restlessness
Take a long look at your needs~
Walk out from the swamp onto life's highway
And never return again to the reeds~
Once you lose sight of your dreams in life
And your deepest emotional needs and feelings within~
You know then that its time , yours and mine
To think of yourself and that's not a sin~
If you've no tears left to cry then who are you
When you no longer care your as good as dead~
Then a whole life of love and destiny
Wasted ...ended ...put to bed~
All the answers to life's questions are waiting
For you to press on , seek and find~
And if you lose interest in searching
your chances of happiness then left behind~
Creation and creating never ceases
As we all create every day~
And know you do too , Your needed its true
So go get it , do it in your way~
But one things for sure you do matter
And your loved by just more than a few~
So keep it in mind , never leave this behind
always , To thine own self be true~.

( The most STUPID thing I've ever heard said / Read / Or became aware of as if ..
ALL THINGS ARE FAIR IN LOVE AND WAR ..
THEY are NOT .. NEVER WAS .. NEVER WILL BE ..

I TRUELY LOVE MY FISHING

Sitting alone in a quiet spot fishing
A meditation all upon its own
Listening to the sounds of nature
The mobile in a draw in my home

Early in the morning or late night
Upon the turning of the ocean tide
Line in the water just in case
I might hook something of pride

Seems of late the best of conversations
I have is talking to myself of late true
Everybody talks some English if want to
English one of languages here of a few

But getting away on my own for awhile
Has me not have to deal with religion
And their concentrationg on its fantasy
Just being alone awhile as if a pigeon

One in the Philippines can be among many
And still feel it seems so very much alone
Not a lot here know or trust anyone at all
Except those they have within their home

Seems so many being a walking contradiction
Partly truth and as well partly fiction
Which is more often ever at best so confusing
And courses a lot of un=needed daily friction

Thus I spend much of my time at home alone
And when can and if fishing I love to go
Away from hard to understand attitudes that be
And some peace of mind hopefully to know

If the sun did never shine
And we had not the rain_
We'd never know the value
Of life and love and pain~
These things they need each other
To even simply be~
But even they'll not know about
The bliss of you and me~

Can the flowers in our gardens
ever share as one~
With glory , grace and pardon
And the caress of both rain and sun~
Will they ever grow together
Sharing life this way~
lending beauty to each other
As they travel through each day~

She is a flower within my garden
Delighting come who may~
She pleases all who know her
As she goes through each and every day~
Beauty indiscribable
She brings ecstassy , the best~
standing higher than the sky
the very answer to my quest~

( I WROTE THIS IN THE OLDEST ENGLISH OF LONG AGO )

Twas to be that thine alone twood stand
Twile moon and star and wind twood be~
Twen shiver twood endure thus so
Failing the likes of time and thee~
Shawled in stance beyond the brush
Two shadows the night produced~
And thy meeting became a meeting thus so
As oneness from twosome reduced~
Walketh thine twards yonder hut
Twere fire burnt there brightly~
Twas there alone twithin this home
Twood love exist so tightly~
Twen moon it slept and clouds they wept
Twith water from heaven it fell~
Holdest thine in arms entwined
And dwell in the home of hunters dell~
From a being of wealth ye came from thus
To a being of both fur and gun~
Twere true love could be forever free
Thus no more eyes of jest in fun~
Twas there that thine chose to be mine
Twen moon and star it shone on high~
Love twas then born as night owl yawned
To vow love till time to die ~

The spell check after my writing this will
malfunction but I wrote this after a long ago
traveling experience and it was so real and
so very long ago in oldest of English time ..
As I spent time where Shakespear lived ..

Twile moon and star and wind twood be~
Twen shiver twood endure thus so

Twere true love twould be forever free
Thus no more eyes of jest in fun~
Twas there that thine chose to be mine
Twen moon and star it shone on high~
Love twas then born as night owl yawned

Before I too thought of walking upon it
A beach new sublime to be seen
Not a fingerprint of man or bird
Nor of where the waves have been

Unmarked natures gift before my eyes
I searched  but not a single thing
Indicating new born natures creation
A perfection only nature it could bring

Looked for a stick anything at all to be
As if nature had not long had it pressed
Absolute complete perfection to view
A moring beach just awoken from rest

Waves small all in uniform performed
Air with oxygen no doctor could prescribe
Feeling guilty that I might walk on it
A brand new morning beach natures pride

As smooth as a virgins lips unkissed as yet
Not a grain of sand out of place to see
A breeze that had a soul feel years younger
A view that was mine alone to view that be

A coming together as never in life ever before
A knowing so new to a soul-
A being as one has never ever known
An experience as if from earliest days of old-
A riddle almost hidden in clouded mystery
A falling golden leaf as if from heaven above-
A moonbeam so heart penetrating to a soul
Unexplainable feelings of real true love-
An embracing as hearts have never known-
A smile sent from the most distant star-
An unexpected answer to true loves fulfillment
A depth of desire to carry a soul so far-
A purity to win that heart and a soul within
A blessing from God in all from above-
A becoming as if being born once again
Unexplainable feeling's of real true love-
A gentleness of first signs of an autumn dawn
A warmth of a welcoming winters open fire-
A goodness as good as goodness can be
A positivity as the most positive of desire-
As beautifully captivating beyond all debating
The most precious of feelings in life ever to call-
Almost the most potent ingredient of all things good
That's as loving as true love can possibly be at all-
A knowing , a going , an almost mind blowing
A real blessing in all divine destiny-
An unbreakable vow to last forever and how
The one thing that have two souls know ecstasy-
A being within , Heavenly with out traces of sin
A souls blessing that becomes so a part of same-
A feeling of beautiful ease contentment and tease
A never wanting to ever go back ever again-
All a souls heart could ask as in it it basks
A very reason for being born from above-
All an entity ever needs to feel as whole as can be
The many unexplainable feelings of real love-

It really is the smallest world this day
In a strange city my hotel room taken
Never knew just what to do its true
All plans here both costly and forsaken

Went to a bar as to think awhile of it all
Ordered a beer and the bar maid said
I know you , You lived next door it's true
In my home town back then I was wed

A girl I once went to school with long ago
Thousands of miles across oceans were we
Where are you staying she asked me softly
I then explained to her to some as if degree

Oh she said I have a place with spare room
Your welcome to come with me and to  stay
Not only saved all of my woe but friends too
Turned out to be one very pleasant holiday

It's a small world we live in that's for sure
And it all turned out to be ever so very fine
We became the best friends ever so far away
An unplanned convenience almost divine

I know there's no way I'm the only one there is
That life has tested ever so
But in reality I feel just so protected by
Over time powers of which I really do not know
I've had my share of broken bones
Fell off a two story building once but into sand
I've been shot and stabbed and months in a coma
But thanks to God and whatever I still stand
I've experienced an NDE long ago it's true
They say I died and was dead eight minutes long
My mother stood nine years after she died at my bed
And she looked extremely well and very strong
I've lived with a real ghost in an England in a house
And though she was the very most loving oldest soul
She always gave all in that house a welcomed feeling
And yes she was real and from the very early days of old
I've gotten to travel this entire world a few times
And learned ever so much from university life
All of life's education has me knowing but humble
As so many others still on earth are so very much in strife
There I have to believe are so many that still take care
Of souls that are upon earth and very still much alive
But not knowing all about the after as some say they do
I to this day know such love and in this life I thrive
Now though this may appear to just be another poem
Every bit of it in Gods name if it's a lie than may I die
But I wish in Gods name all could be as sure as I am
There's powers that'll watch over us until the oceans dry.

UPON A CARPETS OF GOLDEN LEAVES

Ever deep upon the ground among the trees
Turning over within a gentle autumn breeze
Some dancing upon the way to the ground
Children playing and them laughing with ease

River near by as its finding its gentle way
Slowly to the ocean upon this ever sublime day
Birds they in the trees how they sing away
Wild flowers growing with such natural display

A picnic in a most beautiful river side place
On a carpet of golden leaves with natures grace
Such face lit smiles upon every single face
Only natural peace on mind in this natural space

Bluest skies and a high cloud or two looking down
At all nature has provided all naturally true
No noise to be heard just natural music the sound
Upon a carpet of goldren leaves under skies of blue

WAIT  A  MINUTE  I  HAVE  ME

I was feeling ever so lonely
Not a real friend I could see
And then it hit me and I knew
Wait a minute .. I have me

The only soul thats never lied
The one I could trust with life
The one who's never let me down
Regardless come the worst strife

The one I've spent my life with
Never took advantage of me at all
And when I needed a hand that one
Answered every single urgent call

When I needed help that one alone
Was there for me in every way
No matter the situation every time
I could depend on that one to stay

That one will always be my friend
When others could not be found
I have this one for all my life
Has always been there for me around

WALKING THROUGH AN AGED HOSPITAL

I was on my way from one place to another
Within an aged hopital one day
And as I did I could not but hear
Will someone give me anything to take the pain away

I turned I looked and saw a once dedicated mother
Who had raised a family now just dumped in here
I walked over to her took her head in my hands
And kissed her as she'd not been for many a year

The look of pain vanished and replaced by a smile
Saying softly oh I've not been kissed like that
Looking into my eyes whispered anther please
Of such I can not within remember or I'll eat my hat

I kissed her once again as this angel earned the right
To be appreciated for all she'd done for home family
She lay back with a smile closed her eyes gently
The pains all gone now dear one how I thank thee

On the way back her bed was empty i asked how come
They said she just passed away smiling ever so
They don't have drugs that can do that anymore
Walking away with tears in eyes and no pain to go

Born as such inbuilt romance so much
In a world of many ******* closed mind
Seldom are there any this day and age
Ever few knowing  of such to find

Not allowing themselves the ability
Feeling its only within movies to be
Never having ever been there at all
Petrified virgins mature  as didability

Gone romancing unknowing seductivity
Religion to blame bibles under pillow
Never have so many made love at night
As full moon shone through the willow

Boldness now replaced with coldness
Hearts minds souls ******* with a vow
Living the words of mans written book
Scared to think outside of same somehow

Blaming world for soul depth frustration
Within knowing has to be more than this
Never missing such as this in all existance
Never known of this the andon of this kiss

Slaves to the word of man who abuses child
The as if holy than thou dictating instruction
Locked up many a beautiful soul doing as told
Saving themselves for none existing construction

Like dipping the toe in water not diving to know
Unexplainable feelings they'll die not knowing
Like robots programmed to follow faulse rule
While young enough to appreciate water flowing

Wasted lives age and all from lust to romacing
All gifts thus for learning as within souls cry
After all said and done feelings never to be won
Waiting for the inevertable one day we all die

I was in hospital because of an accident
A minor one I thought~
But I needed an operation
To fix a few things of a sort~
When I woke up after it
I lay thinking all the time
Could not believe the kind of things
That were still within my mind~
I asked the doctor when he came
Did all go alright while I was under~
Nothing happened did it doctor
His answer was no was not a single blunder~
Still I worried about what I thought
About the things I seem then to recall~
So early in the morning a sister came around
And gave her a call~
What happened during my operation
I asked her sincerelly~
She sat down and turned off her torch
And she began then to tell me~
This is just between us
She said softly but for sure~
We lost you in there for awhile
You died and stopped breathing don't know what for~
We tried and tried to get you back
But you had gone away~
It was a good six minutes and all over
But then you started breathing better than before-
And much to our surprise you rolled your eyes
No way you were gone then anymore
We thought for reasons unknown
We'd lost another on the day~
Well I told her while I was out
I stood in a room of mist~
It echoed and though I felt at ease
It was a place my soul had never kissed~
A person came towards me
And soon a surprise I had~
He looked at me in both joy and sadness
It was the face of my own dad~
In his own way of speaking
He said what in the blazes are you doing here~
It's not your time my son at all
And he held me oh so dear~
No way I wanted to return
I have never felt so grand~
I felt him brush my hair as he used to do
And then he took me by the hand~
You'v got to go back my son
You have so much more to do~
It's not your time to be here yet
you must go back it's true~
And then a voice that came from everywhere
Echoed in this place of misty cloud~
He has to go back right away, right now
It was compassionate but deep and loud~
I saw my dear Dad fading away
And as he did he replied~
I'll be here when you do come for good
Son take all you come across with love and pride~
I woke up in the recovery room
They said I would be fine~
I had all of this within my memory
And it was so clear within my mind~
The nursing sister told me I had been gone
Longer than any she had known in the past~
That they had done all they could for me
Then you started breathing fine and so fast~
Gasping for breath like you were under water
And just came to the top~
The doctor almost she said had a fit
And could not believe his lot~
Nobody can hold their breath that long
Your heart had stopped and simply died~
For reasons unknown to all that day
She said I myself almost cried~
We checked you over and over again
You were can fine as fine could be~
No way any would have said a thing
But now that you asked me~
I held her hand and she held mine
And said if you had not of asked my man~
Nobody would have told you at all
What happened in that longest it seems time span~
She sat and asked so many questions
And I needed to talk it's true~
As the place I went for awhile
Ive never ever remember of being to~
But I do know my very own dad
My best mate ever in my time~
And he told me so lovingly
To go back for awhile and Id be fine~
That I had so much more to do
And now I know the reasons why~
After all this time he is still with me
And still it's not my time to die~
But at least I've seen that other side
And I fear death not at all~
For I know what it feels like after
I receive my final call~
( May I be struck dead if theres an
   ounce of an untruth in this )

We at any age through life sometimes
Have a feeling we know all to know
Not stopping to think length of a wink
We have ever so far yet to go ..

Never been in a gym but worked hard always
And at my age of 76 still as fit as any my age
But I never use the word believe only I know
We never stop learning until life's last page

If I told of lives I've saved things I've done
Experiences I've had people I've met in life
You''d say He's read way too many books
To comprehend it all you'd be in strife

But one day at a time I lived this life of mine
All my poetry would tell of my life's history
I'm here to learn as my life's candles burn
After all said and done I am only simply me

The body is only a tool the soul uses on earth
Or like a car the soul drives to get around here
And when it gets too old its of to the wreckers
As theres no need for it after this life so dear

Around our bodies we have amagnetic aura
I knew a guy that once lost his left side leg
He got then a wooden one as a replacement
And at times he'd scratch it being itchy instead

Ghosts are spirits not wanting to leaf for reasons
Being all aura can be seen during usually at night
Someone or something just keeps them here
It's the living here and now more reason for fright

All of us are as if a souls spirit tool to use on earth
The better we take care of them longer they last
Their mechanics are from doctors to heralists
Not taking care of them shortens future diluting past

We do not lose our loved ones
Not at all when they die~
They only shed their earthly bodies
So to greater heights now they can fly~
They .. Just as we one day
Have way further yet to go~
And after all is said and done
Upon this earth this time as we know~
We will never forget them
And they will never forget us it's true~
We love them and they love us
As we all do as we must do~
They for time are watching us
And beside us in ever so many a way-
They know of the love within our hearts
And their love for us will always stay-
We do miss them but of cause
And yes they miss us as well~
But they are doing as we will one day
So closer to God .. we can as well dwell~

Wee ***** Waggles was the whitest whale
And from the day he was born he was a wiggler ~
He wiggled and waggled so very much
His friends called him ***** the wiggling jiggler~
You could always find ***** in a crowd of whales
As he would make the wildest waves as he was going~
Wilder waves than any whale could make
Most of all when he surviced to do his blowing~
Other whales loved playing with ***** Waggles
And they would swirl around in Willys waves so wildly~
Willys mother would always be watching him
As she wondered around swimming mildly~
And Wee ***** Waggles was so easy to watch
Because Wee ***** was so wonderfully white~
For Wee ***** was so wonderfully white
He could even be seen at night~
All the fish in the ocean how they loved *****
When ***** would wonder their watery way~
And they all loved Wee ***** so very much
They'd cry out "Oh ***** stay with us and play"~
Wee ***** Waggles was the whitest whale
The most popular whale in the water~
Mrs whale , Willys mum wondered just what
Would have happened if she'd had a daughter~.

We go from sky diving to bunji jumps
We climb mountains swim the ocean blue
Work our entire lives away not a chance
Anything wears out till that call your through

We can make love to strangers from some bar
Give birth to babies maybe more than a few
But as long as you are enjoying your oxygen
Live each day as if its the last one for you

You can pray your very knees off  if you like
But don't hold your breath its so very true
Because Gods still looking for the Titanic
Or an air line some place under the ocean blue

You can play basket ball football beach ball too
Come home simply worn out but after a wine
Your as good as ten years ago endless energy
Proved simply so often anything less in the mind

Go to disco shopping all day a shower good as new
Eat well excersize sexasize have a drink or two
Age is all in the mind of those that know not
In time to come not far away you'll know **** true

We never wear out in any shape or form at all
life is a ball a dance and an education too
Every beautiful flower in the garden one day dies
But in the mean time its all very up to you

After the earth had already been wiped clean
Five times before billions of years after  we came
Man way more interested in past than future
Once more a lost civilization man alone to blame

My own soul has told me if it all of what it knows
Once more to come we the longest time ago
And from a place still above his comprehention
He'll ask how was I back then suppose to know

Sadly badly it shall be once more be the same
Life a most precious gift we allow equals to rule
I've no doubt within my very mind woman will
Be the last remaining soul using a rock as a stool

Mans sexist racism egotisticle war loving attitudes
With half a brain he can look back this to see
But like achild bold he cannot be at all told
Cutting all just above ground and still up the tree

Families only wanting peace of mind to find
I fear not myself lived my life but children dying
Brain washed many all by religions politics
So many innocent heartbroken and crying

Nobody takes uncountable wealth with them
Not when comes the time oxygen is no more
And they'll blame their god from deep in sod
When they alone karma visits them for sure

Our planet has been in a mess before
With religion politics behind of war
Born during ww2 seen it all for sure
When powers that be opened that door

Australians were at korea many died
War is not the answer another egg fried
Then Vietnam was not our war in any way
When Johnson did as he did so many died

Now weve a hidden agenda lips sealed tight
Russia USA telling all they'll save plight
But in reality they have secret in their can
While convincing all everythings alright

But its all been before seen it years ago
Started happening finished over its so
Political ego's let loose to run a muck
Eve In the middle innocent souls die as we know


Weve been in a mess before lost all we adore
Endless children died families by the score
Money over population and way lots more
Empoyment as well so they tell us for sure

Those older than fifty remember so well
All younger they know stories others tell
But now this mess now how it rings a bell
Politicians always right religions tell of sin and hell

My feelings are just plant a tree a garden free
Allow the growth to grow and be
Adore the high mountais oceans and the dea
Weve been in a mess before all older will agree

What goes around comes around
You've heard it said many a time
Sure build the wall to last not fall
That sides yours this side is mine

We'll spend time making our home
On this side  butfrom now keep in mind
No USA comes over here same rules
From this on in your doing none of mine

At the entry gate from now no debate
Be legal here as well our new rules
Build the wall strong thick and tall
Illegal entries on this side for fools

What goes around more-so comes around
From here on in let it all simply be it's so
Your side USA and our side all ours
Legal only allowed here in Mexico

Its a fact of life ..Mand greed and need for more
Will one day be his failing himself ever so
His religions almot equal pigeons closed minds
But the many outcomes are out og his hands to know

Its true its been said put to bed in the back of his head
Plus comes a day everyone ages and dies moves on
Man wating his time with his games ever so fine
After whach another civilization neve to hear his song

As its said ... So far the Earth has had four aeons and we are now living in an epoch ... “wise life”) in which the thoughts, deeds and creations of human beings will ... even smaller asteroid could have disastrous consequences for humanity.

Well over time to show love for one another

What so many fail to see is the alility
To look within and see whats there
The outer shell can be ever beautiful
But the soul within matters to be fare

How often I hear of hes so handsom true
But deep within could be an inherited blue
Even your worst nightmare waiting for you
Not doing your homework a bad choice through

Learn to look within for signs of pure happiness
And ask of inner feelings if they care to confess
Follow your vibes voices of your very inner soul
Real love might be but even disiples wear a dress

Its your life but choices don't come forever free
Snap decisions often the wrong path that be
Making love ever beautuful and evil does it best
It never hurt a soul enjoy but remain your destiny

If two are really sure than the blessings are many
But you belong to you never sell yourself to anyone
Your heart has so much further yet to go in life
From birth until your whole life is thus over and done

Your ability to look within is born deeply within you
Your vibes are of advice from souls that sincerely care
Listen to them you won't go wrong for most of life to be
And loving yourself is no sin it allows a good life to bare

Equals preach but they are humans also wealth in mind
No better than yourself and only one of you to find
Be proud of whom you are and be that ever so well
Be yourself and to yourself always be ever so kind

( A sad but real reality of love and life    
    we all learn over time )


When you've found all you've ever searched for
All your whole life long~
When you've heard the very words
To your very own souls song~
When you've found the very reason
That you yourself was born~
When love remains as brilliant
As nights first sensual touch of dawn~
When the words total ecstasy
Replaces all you've ever known~
When you know love better than sheer perfection
As if it came to you on the most seductive wind ever blown~
When you are feeling with your fingertips
The very angel you've waited a lifetime for~
When she alone is in your heart and space
And has opened up loves every door~
How can you have her really know that
Its her alone that fills your being~
How can you prove to her in hours
What it is that you are feeling and seeing~
With her exactly as she is without changing
In every single sensual beautiful way~
And she s everything you've ever dreamed of
For now , for ever and a day~
This is when you've found love
And yes this is how it is for you~
But its not worth a solitary dime
If she doesn't feel that way too~

When ever others have to know all your secrets
The only thing that you really have to do
It's called feeding the chickens
Give them some crumbs maybe a few

If thats all they have in their life they have to do
Just tell them enough to keep them satisfied true
Give them a make believe don't tell will you
And feed their empty minds with a crumb or two

One has to show pity for such a lowere I Q
So throw them a few crumbs of don't tell will you
As long as they live their lives won't change true
Chicken after all just chickens and do what they do

They'll take those crumbs adding a thought or two
With fowl like imaginations the hens roosters too
But thats who they are like some humans so blue
Some get laid some don't some get hatched it's true

Replying .. You got laid ? goodness have'nt you too
Never thought you would .. But even chickens *****
Along came this rooster and it was all far from blue
Then he told the whole farm yard with a **** a doodle do

When I came home thought I was alone
Darkness only no light on at all to see
And then walking to my bedroom quietly
Frrom shower you appeared in front of me

I thought of you several times during this day
I pictured you being with me alone this night
I wished how I wished you could be with me
Wishes are dreams and prayers don't show light

I knew I'd boght that wine just hoping sometime
That as one we'd both have it in a bucket of ice
Somebody somewhere read my mind it seems
I stood looking at you you at me love has no price

You ventured to turn on the light no leave it off
You were still wet sone within the window moon
You reached for the towel I then threw it away
Stay as you are I whispered softly in a musical croon

Surprises are such magic things in our lives always
Most of all when as pleasant as some can surely be
Our hearts and our souls sang songs I've never heard
Special magic moments then became all of poetry

You call in every now and then
It's always the same over again
If you could ever read my mind
It'd always be saying the very same

I think what upon earth I would give
A different time a different place
I'd give anything to just know you once
If in  dreams you my thoughts to trace

But there you sit and I sit too as we do
Age don't mean a single thing it's so
What I'd give oh what I'd surely gine
To just one time you to one time know

Away back when poetry began long ago
It was told read and written how they talk
Different accents of whom they were then
Of love war life most gone like wiping chalk

There was no academic come grammer then
The voice of the soul using its owner to tell
Of feelings situations life as seen upon the day
Often over a pint of *** where thus poets dwell

It was back then seductive destructive constructive
Imagination allowed to express its freedom when
And today in many a way they try likewise to play
But real once poetry never to be heard of ag'en

Many from souls dressed in rags luggagage in bags
Who within knew romance dispite the hardships true
How they'd entertain to many knowing of pain
And thus having them see one day hope was due

And so good to know how it once would thus flow
It healed and had many look further up the track
It was a powerful thing how their words would sing
Never quitting in any way or looking back

True we are here to learn but as well
Here for a good time not a time long
Life slips away every day in every way
Of this must be some where a song

At times one thinks this is no good
Same thing every single day it seems
Reality getting harder to handle of late
No time to even think of ones dreams

They say lifes made of choices I say
Some's choices are just too much true
How can any live a decent life when
Others choices often .. I'm fine F..You

Then pressures rise and it hits the fan
Not in any nicest way at times its so
When others ignorance all that matters
Some souls lose it and simply lets it show

Those of little consideration for others
We find the apple falls close to the tree
And this adds to already stresses and strife
When pressures rise the victims set all free
