Soaring High
I wish I were an Eagle
Soaring high in God’s blue sky.
Effortlessly flapping its wings
Taking it ever high.
Surveying the earth beneath
Sharp eyes taking all in
Searching a likely prey
A tasty meal for him.
Swooping swift as a bullet
Feathers fluttering in the wind
A hare, a fish, a bird
His talons soon will win.
Back to the aerie
Three hungry chicks to [...]

THE DAY YOU WERE BORN,YOU WERE A STAR
LIKE SOMEONE ISOLATED IN A VACANT CAR
WHETHER YOU MAKE OR YOU MAR
OR YOU INITIATE A HEALTHY WAR
ALL THESE THINGS ARE WORTHLESS SO FAR
LEAVING ASIDE YOU AS THE SINGLE STAR
THE DAY YOU DIE,YOU ARE JUST BORN
YOU CAN BE KILLED,YOUR SPIRIT CAN’T BE TORN
SURROUNDED BY HYPOCRITE FRIENDS AND ENEMIES HYPOTHETICAL
MAKING [...]

80 Summers,
to bask under the sun.
Experience,
before all is undone.
Limits of life,
are to open your eyes.
To let you see,
beyond your current dreams.
Breathe in the day,
soak in the rays.
Listen to the rustle,
watch the tree sway.
Passion for life and love,
for everyone.
Be who you are again,
a single day.
For a single day now,
forget your pain.
Free yourself from life’s strains,
and let [...]

Love ..
like a saloon door you crash open
not to know what you’ll see..
If it’s hidden or if it’s free.
Attractively inviting with all the choices.
Softly whispering in loud voices..
They say,
what would you like?
I say no bitters please.
What you soon discover..
Is only loves tease.
Luring you sometimes with silent looks
Feeling like a cheap paperback book.
Still..
Stubbornly
holding on to your [...]

Someone Else’s Crime
I will grow tomatoes
When you’ve set me free.
I will live at home in peace
Where all will let me be.
I will wake up cheerful
In the morning to the sun.
I will feel at peace at last,
Once my Freedom’s won.
I have been imprisoned here
For someone else’s crime.
I have lived my life in fear,
And I have done [...]

I love a parade
The Memorial Day parade
Happy, yet a somber day,
Honoring those who gave their life
So all may
Enjoy
Basking in freedom and liberty
Free from strife.
The rat-tat tat of the drum
The toot toot toot of the horn
Brings out the innate
Love of a parade
To which every man was born.
The rod straight sight of the [...]
