Give a Care

I I visited a place; where no one gave a care
They didn't wear nice cloths; they didn't do their hair
They hate each other's guts; no one's ever fair
When there was a need; they they'd only stand and stare
No one tried to work; all their time was spare. 
Cars are always parked; they're not going anywhere
Content to live their lives; avoiding pain to bear
Life is nothing more than a sordid self affair
They're always all alone; nothing's ever shared
The only cards they play is the game of solitaire 
They can't experience love; their hearts are in despair
I tried to help them out, but they acted unaware 
If someone listened up; I would just declare
Where no one has concern; love is never there










Savoring

I write a letter every day
It seems there's still so much to say
Conversations every night
Just to make my heart feel right

It's not sad and I'll be fine 
I'm always staying in the lines
A void inside for a while
Memories that make me smile

Discoveries oh how I love
Savoring the little stuff
Time can still be a friend
Exposing things that never end

Seasons

As the leaves shed their green
And we lose the warming breeze
Like a kite the hammock swings 
The birds we love no longer sing
Mesquitos cease to bite
Geese begin their flight
We'll be alright

Seasons come, refreshing change
Loss and gain in full parade
If we fight and fret the loss
Joy and hope become the cost 
Look ahead, a welcome sight
Time will come for our delight
We'll be alright
 

The Cure


You're acting so devine
Gotta keep my thoughts in line 
Seeking for a sign
In the stars

Hate to be so emphatic 
But my nerves have kinda had it
Maybe I'm an addict
So they say

Your thinking I'm demure
But I've always been sincere
I'm just looking for a cure
Can we find it?

Claims

Reality claims that we'll never be
I am a dreamer and you are a dream
We're still together in some galaxy
I look to the stars for our story

Every night When I stand in my yard
I watch how happy we are in the stars
Lay my head on the pillow and visit you there
We'll hang out together where nobody cares.




























Words and Rhymes

Poetry is heart in words 
Words that pierce notions 
Words that heal and settle
Passion into language

As love celebrates two lives
Words and rhymes give hope
Raining the greatness of life
Onto parched souls

My Machines

My machines and I work through time
To do the tasks how we're designed 
When things don't go the way we will
My machines and I feel no guilt
We're anchored to the ground and stay
When things we love drift away 
The gauges tell me how they feel 
When nothing else in life is real
I speak my mind and they will hear
We never fight and never fear
Always strong through any weather 
We are wearing out together
