Old
Hands of wood begin to break
leaves will form to make
the sun of time light will fall
Age in winters cruel

Roots of green cry of dew
Footprints stay mud of all
Dry of heat memories will keep
woods of memories fall

Bridge will cross break the moss
Crumble the waters lost
Sticks will stay come round of told
Age of young
Age of old

I ask, for you to say
I say,  to hear  the night of show
I show, to speak the wise of know
I know, to hold the dark of day
Julie Nov 2020
If I’m to say what where or why
I see no point in life to fly
To be and gone is one wish to blow
I wonder and never ever not know

If I’m to speak inner voice
I see no world about of choice
Inside is hurting for ever a day
To know to show to grow I say

If I’m to go outside to play
The sun will shine not today
Lay forever still to silence
Not old not grey fists of violence

If I was a kid I never know what
If I was a kid I never say not
If I was a kid I fight the lot
If I was a kid I cry to forgot

If I was a kid I wonder why
If I was a kid I look in the sky
If I was a kid I see no light
If I was a kid the mighty fright

If I was a kid I never not know
If I was a kid how would I show
If I was a kid the day of grow
If I was a kid my bike would blow

If I was a kid I see no why
If I was a kid the stars in the sky
If I was a kid to paint my life
If I was a kid I’d push in the knife


I’m now grown up little and low
I’m now grown up still not to know
I’m now grown up questions I ask
I’m now grown up about my past

I’m now grown up to see what’s there
I’m now grown up to speak where
I’m now grown up inside I care
I’m now grown up begins the stare

I’m now grown up to fight the days
I’m now grown up to find my way
I’m now grown up come what may
I’m now grown up when you took it away

I’m now grown up to speak or stutter
I’m now grown up to feel what flutters
I’m now grown up there to bare
I’m now grown up to tread those stairs

When I grew
Life I thought was true
When I grew
Life I thought I knew
When I grew
Life I painted blue

When I grew
Life i thought too
When I grew
Life I thought due
When I grew
Life I thought never grew

Remember, words as you watched to laugh
Islands that flowered, glass of an eye
In between stood of time
Aloud, no words of mine

Remember, footprints  tide washed in
Bench to drown, paint what’s blue
Water to sip the stones away
Drops, forever to stain

Remember, birds open to prey
Turn of the card, magic of play
Early you rise air that you bring
Words, song I will sing
Julie Oct 2020
One step is all you need
Time will tick hands to bleed
Look out inside, what thought
Life begins late of taught

One step in front to move along
Open up hear your song
Let go outside, what hears
Life begins late to cheer

One step behind no turning back
Closed cup to spill to dry
Release inside, outside to cry
Life begins, not late to try
