Among the fields of faded dreams
When day is done, or so it seems,
I stand beside the padlocked gate
And watch the evening as I wait,
While breezes call from shadows deep
As willows hang their heads and weep,
The dreams of evening speak to me
About the things they want to be.
New born beginnings, new romance,
Scattered windblown flowers dance,
Promises on [...]

When Daddy bought a little horse,
I thought it strange; it was of course,
The thing just didn’t look quite right,
But I was small and not too bright.
Had leathery skin from head to toe,
But way back then I didn’t know,
That horses had a thing called hair,
Like puppies, cats and also bears.
And then there were those big wide [...]

When friends are gone
Family is there for you, but you feel the need for a one on one friend.
When you failed at your test, when your dreams seems far fetched, when you are alone, no one around who truly understands you.
Not a friend remained in spite of how they claim to have known you.
Not [...]

This poem is based on an actual dream that I had.
I had a dream the other day,
Its vision will not go away,
About some people dressed in gowns,
(I know how strange this story sounds.)
Each gown was separate from the rest,
With different colours they were blest,
And everyone had points of view,
And revelations that were new.
They studied scripture, [...]

I want to eat a pork chop and love to eat a steak,
But people try to change my mind and say it’s a mistake,
To eat a living creature; they say that it’s a sin,
But I would challenge their beliefs; now where do I begin?
To try to live on lettuce would leave me feeling weak,
To have [...]

Rockin’ rhythms, ever livin’
Beat is poundin’, always givin’
Always jumpin’; always thumpin’
Hear the music as it’s pumpin’
Digital is always playin’
But I can’t hear what it’s sayin’
Nerves are twitchin’; this is bitchin’
In the den and in the kitchen
Sounds are all that I am hearin’
But I love it and I’m cheerin’
Keep it goin’, never stoppin’
As I’m twitchin’ and [...]

He rode into town in the back of a truck,
A man on a mission, who, hoping with luck,
Would find the young zealots who murdered his Dad,
And vowed he’d take vengeance with all that he had.
Was late in the evening, and chores had been done,
He’d gone to the bedroom to tuck in his son,
His father was [...]

I walked upon a razor’s edge,
My feet were bleeding crimson red,
The pain was great, I slipped and fell,
And landed in the pit of Hell.
And Satan greeted me with glee,
He said, “How are you, can’t you see,
That you are in my world to stay?
I own your soul and you will pay.”
And voices taunted, visions swelled,
In total [...]

CAMP HAPPY
It was many and many
seasons ago
at a summer camp
by the name of Happy.
There was a beautiful young counselor there
by the name of Merry.
She was a child
and I was a child,
counselors
to children less fortunate than we
to children with less possessions than we.
We fell in love
with blessings from above
me and my beautiful Merry.
We married quite young
and [...]

Where does it go?
When it grows old
Somewhere over the rainbow it waits
It flies with the sun
Through the burgundy moments
Of a day
And into the night
In the perils of silence
Where does it go?
When your soul changes
Have you forgotten
Can it fly like a flutterfly
With the colors of life
Swimming through its skin
Where does it go?
When its let [...]
