Past And Future

the future is nothing
it's the past that lives for me
as real as today it lives

the past when I was young
and my little boys were so sweet
with big blue eyes

and rosy cheeks
my angels my own
my three little boys

I remember trips to the cabin
and swims in the lake
cooking out and roasting marshmallows

hide and seek in the woods
lots of laughter and giggles
oh times were sweet
when they were young

now they are men on their own
and need me not
I miss those days

I miss the past
the kisses and hugs and long curly hair
all gone to grownup things

the past is forgotten
but lives

in my memory alone
forgotten by all but me

The Space Between Us


the space between us
can it grow any larger
days past so quickly

I long for your arms
to hold me close at night time
oh my love please please

She Left



As my mother lie dying. I knew it was an ending. I knew that my sister
and I would now be the next generation. As I looked deep into the sweet brown eyes
I had always known, I said my goodbyes. Mommy I love you. I have always love you.
Taking her hand in mine I tried to reach her. But her eyes were focused elsewhere.
She knew me not. Perhaps she saw her savior. Perhaps she saw my father. I climbed into bed with her. Holding her tight. Telling her it was all right to go. And she left me.


gone to her reward
carried on sweet angels wings
to sit with her Lord

Darkness Of Winter

darkness
of winter time
snow falls covering all
deep sparkling  snow blinds the eyes 
all dark

Necter Of Life

harvest time has come
sweet nectar the ripe fruit bears
licking fingers all

children suck fruit dry
little gluttons search for more
oh so sweet they are

The Deep

deep lies the ice cover
sold beneath the river
black ice thick and dark

all lies still and quiet
the winter has settled in
fish dream far below

buried deep within
winters sold grip
spring a dream away away
