Roses are beautiful
Roses smell beautiful,
But to pluck one, you risk being pricked.
Same applies to all good things,
To get them you have to risk getting hurt somehow,,
Beautiful things are all about sacrifice,
You never really know if it's gonna ***** you but you try to pick it anyway.
Dare to take the pain and enjoy the benefits later.

"Keep your eyes closed, love. sometimes all you have to listen is to what the sound of the waves tells you to do."

When I was much younger, beaches were my second favorite places. I still love watching waves as they go by, crashing against each other and the whole process repeating all over again.

A troubadour I be.
Playing my musical pen
for those who gather.

A balladeer be I.
One who parades cross page
to sing to readers ears.

A troubadour am I.
The minstrel of written word
who performs my hearts music.

A jongleur be I
gathering events from journey  
to birth a poem
I am a self taught musician /poet
playing from life’s experiences.

You may not be
The moon or
A star or
The sun
Beaming vision to the world.

But to me
You are
The cute little
Firefly
Casting hope in me.

LIFE

Human life is like a book...
The middle being birth.
The end death.
And the middle
a souls adventure of expansion.

Human life is like a book.
A grand story
unwinding with feelings as words
and moments as footmarks.

Once concluded it’s bond
in spirits core memory
to take one then
to a new book-cover of spirit.
A new beginning of
chapters where a sequel begins
with a beginning, middle, and end.
First poem of the day.
You're thirsty?
Here.
Let me offer you some of my tears!
(I've got plenty)
