Lipsy da do li la,
Spun on the wind, soft as a sigh,
Crows tilt their heads in quiet awe,
As daisies laugh and reach for sky.

Golden beams stretch long and low,
A feather drifts, a wish in tow,
Hanging light on sunbeam’s thread,
A whispered hope, a word unsaid.

Footsteps twirl in meadow bright,
Bare toes kiss the earth in flight,
The world hums soft, the air sings free,
A melody of you and me.

Lipsy da do li la,
A secret only joy can know,
A song spun wild in petal’d air,
Where hearts let go, and wishes grow.

I am Republican, do you hate me now?
I am Democrat, what do you think of that?
What will you say when I cast my vote for my cat?
Why can’t we be friends, why can’t we make it work somehow?

Let go of the distance, and embrace what’s true,
Why let differences pull us far from view?
We’re more than labels, more than sides,
In the end, it’s hearts where unity resides.

United we stand, divided we fall,
Together we rise...stronger after all.

We are all just human....let’s choose love above all.

Sweet curls of lazy dreams
wafting above my head,
whispering in hush-toned sighs,
spun from longing, soft as thread.

A wistful lover’s kiss unfolds,
in blushing pinks and shades of green,
a blue cloud dancing merrily,
through silent spaces in between.

Twirling in the amber mist,
a lullaby the night has spun,
a dance undone, yet just begun,
adrift beneath the waking sun.

And oh, they tickle through my mind,
like ribbons on the breeze they fly,
a playful wink, a twist, a turn
then vanish with a soft goodbye

and my heart follows.

Let It Shine

Let it shine
like dawn spilling gold across the quiet earth,
like laughter breaking the hush of sorrow,
like a candle defying the vast and endless dark.

Let it shine
not just in the sunlit hours,
but in the storm, in the stillness,
in the spaces where shadows linger.

Let it shine
not because the world demands it,
but because it was born to glow,
to warm, to guide, to ignite.

Let it shine
even when the wind howls,
even when doubt dims the flame,
even when you feel like flickering out.

For light is not only what we see,
it is what we are.
So rise, glow, burn bright
and let it shine.

I am no Don Quixote, but I will chase what is wild,
With dreams too big, and a heart like a child.
To dream beyond reason, to seek what is denied,
To fix what is broken, and never run and hide.

The world may laugh, say I am out of my mind,
But I shall keep pushing forward, leaving doubt behind.
I do not have the answers, I am stumbling through,
But kindness is my armor, and humor gets me through.

The impossible dream fuels the fire in my chest,
Even when the world says I am not the best.
I will fall, I will rise, but I shall never hide,
For joy and strength are something I cannot hide.

It is a promise to myself, a piece of my soul,
To chase the dream, to make me whole.
For the impossible dream is not where I land...
It is in the courage to rise and take a stand.
