Underneath the pain
In a Country by your side
Underneath the suffering
That so many sleep to hide
Underneath the tremors
There’s no Mother for a child
Underneath the rubble
Is what’s left of broken smiles
Underneath the bridge
Is a man without a home
Underneath the moonlight
There’s a child who cries alone
Underneath the remnants
Children played without a fear
Underneath the blanket
An infant clings to life [...]

Tomorrow I will be brave,
speak the words,
I want to say.
Tomorrow I will be bold,
moving forth,
in ways untold.
Tomorrow I will stand up,
make a change,
in many ways.
Tomorrow I’ll speak the words,
once held inside,
I will not hide.
Tomorrow I’ll move away,
change my home,
no need to stay.
Tomorrow I’ll help you too,
finding ways,
to start anew.
Tomorrow I’ll change my life,
learn new things,
forget [...]

If I take a shred of 1980s time, and clutch it tight
(From when optimism shined, and felt no need for second sight);
And contain it in the formula, that I’m preparing now,
I can climb the trees in modern woods, and never break a bough.
Should I snatch a scrap of Paris, clasping firmly with my grip
(So the [...]

I was well prepared to build my house on firm foundation rock.
I had gathered each material and every building block.
I’d seen many things, that life could be whilst imitating art.
I could cull the very best of these in each component part.
I’d explored all possibilities, and worked out all the rules,
As I stood beside the ocean, [...]

By Heart 4 poetry on August 6, 2009
Watching through her
own little window.
She’s unseen and unheard.
Her world is a pool of
thoughts and ideas
but no one wants to
hear them.
She has visions that
could change the world.
But she’s too afraid to
speak out. She knows they
will not listen or care.
So she keeps her dreams
of a better world locked
in her heart.
And every now and then
she peers through
her distant [...]

Can you hear my voice calling in the night
Do you see the tears I cry till the morning’s light
I long to tell you all that is in my heart
Yet I fear I don’t know where to start
And so I sit back as you walk on by
Never saying a word or even try
I watch you walk [...]

Mokeeta, Mokeeta; the soft winds are calling;
Oh where are you sleeping? Oh where can you be?
I miss you MOKEETA, when twilight is falling-
Oh why then so SILENT? Oh why then so far?
I miss you MOKEETA, Oh where can you be?
Far in the twilight your brown hair is gleaming-
I see your bright eyes in a faraway [...]

Here is one to “old man dreams”
that we just wrote today, Grandpa
And I and the “Guardian Angel”…….
Dreams, Old Dreams, is a funny old man-
For you never, never can tell0
Which of his dreams, when the night time comes,
HE…..IS BRINGING TO YOU……TO SELL!
It may be a dream, of the “Hellava” time
When Herrman crossed the divide-
Then…durried home….tho no [...]

To my love while where’re apart
I wake up nightly in the dark
I reach to find you… but you’re not there
Your beautiful smell has left the air
Now my room is dark and lonely
I start to cry for my one and only
I close my eyes to see your face
Then back to sleep with no embrace
My dreams are [...]
