Sitting back with low lamp by fire
My holding you a book of desire
I turn each page you turn one too
Our hearts beat as ifin  a quire

Ripped off the cover reading on
Imaginations running wild a first  
This book I hold so closely still
So great each poetic ever thirst

As book and I become more-so one
Trying so not to entertain speed
Sensually who cares of coming sun
Our souls they need this poetic feed

As book and I we two learn to fly
As eagles ever higher still above
And book and I cannot ever deny
This book and I now one with love

Never to regret or thus ever forget
This happening as we both as one read on
Gently turning every sensual page that be
This book and I become loves very song

BE YOURSELF ONLY BE THAT PERFECTLY

Starlight crystals .. Moonbeams bright
How you shine within my night~
Higher than thought are you there
Shining silently beyond compare~
Going in time , turning so
As in your space time and light years you go ~
How you came to be so far back in time
Sublime creation within my mind~
Lasting forever,having been all of my days
As you shine so you show me the way ~
Should I ever dream of more than your light
I would still always admire you within the night~
Far more about you , how I wish I could know
But for now I will watch you , As upon earth I grow~.

We at any age through life sometimes
Have a feeling we know all to know
Not stopping to think length of a wink
We have ever so far yet to go ..

Never been in a gym but worked hard always
And at my age of 76 still as fit as any my age
But I never use the word believe only I know
We never stop learning until life's last page

If I told of lives I've saved things I've done
Experiences I've had people I've met in life
You''d say He's read way too many books
To comprehend it all you'd be in strife

But one day at a time I lived this life of mine
All my poetry would tell of my life's history
I'm here to learn as my life's candles burn
After all said and done I am only simply me

When I came home thought I was alone
Darkness only no light on at all to see
And then walking to my bedroom quietly
Frrom shower you appeared in front of me

I thought of you several times during this day
I pictured you being with me alone this night
I wished how I wished you could be with me
Wishes are dreams and prayers don't show light

I knew I'd boght that wine just hoping sometime
That as one we'd both have it in a bucket of ice
Somebody somewhere read my mind it seems
I stood looking at you you at me love has no price

You ventured to turn on the light no leave it off
You were still wet sone within the window moon
You reached for the towel I then threw it away
Stay as you are I whispered softly in a musical croon

Surprises are such magic things in our lives always
Most of all when as pleasant as some can surely be
Our hearts and our souls sang songs I've never heard
Special magic moments then became all of poetry

That old wind mill just keeps on turning
Never stops at all no way~
Only gives a little squeak now n then
Guess it has little to say~
The sunsets play games with its blades
As rays of sunlight divide~
And that old mill shares them with
The shadows that are slowly made~
Tall and elegant rusty some
Never seems to fault at all
Working not stop day n night
Never needs a breakfast call~
If that old mill could tell stories
I know for sure there'd be a few~
As a few good memories have been made
In that tank below over a year or two~
Just round and round with no complaints
Never seems to cease~
And the only wages that it ever gets
Is now n then a little grease~

Sitting under a tree in my back yard
Suddenly the wind how it blew~
And in front of me fell a small nest
With in it a baby bird part light blue~
I picked it up gently
With baby still within~
Placed it up on a water tank
Protected by a bin~
Twenty minutes past by
And a Robin flew down
To the nest and the baby
And she flew around and around~
The next day I returned there
To where I sat under that tree~
And a Robin and her baby
Flew around and around me~
She sang to me for a good while
With her baby in tow~
Singing the sweetest of songs
Her baby now safe to let me know~
I thought she'd never leave there
As she stayed and she sung~
To me for saving her baby
Thanking me for deeds done~
A beautiful Robin
Gods creature so small~
How she demonstrated appreciation
How blessed I felt and all~
The heart of a Robin
The love for her own~
She came back to thank me
For saving her own~

A TRUE STORY

https://youtu.be/Oy_ArpznZUs

No matter where you ever wonder
No matter where on earth you roam-
God he promised me so long ago
You'll never ever walk alone-

Well over time I kept him to it
Though the going often it was tough-
But he was always right there with me
Through the good times and the rough-

I often wondered why .. With I
Why on me he would waste his time-
But regardless never could I shake him
His dedication lovingly divine-

Upon my way tripping and falling
And always learning as I'd go-
All of the time when things weren't fine
His vow and light would always glow-

As if keeping me from harm’s way
As I traveled and for love searched on-
For that one love I hoped one day to find
The very lyrics to my own hearts song-

He said no matter where you wonder
And regardless of where you roam-
He had promised ever so sincerely
You'll never walk alone-

I never understood life's game
Or his always being there-
But time went on and moved along
Still his love beyond compare-

I felt so lonely most of the time
Doing things everybody else's way-
Still not finding what I'd dreamed of
That true love for which my heart did pray-

Then one day I just got tired of searching
And I asked him would he simply show to me-
The one thing I had always searched for
And to my surprise it seems he did agree-

I said to him you once told me long ago
My heart would one day find it's very home-
And that if I had faith in his word
I would never ever walk alone-

Before I knew it and soon after that I found her
No more in life the rolling stone-
For that's when he proved his word to me
You'll never ever walk alone-

Today with all the complaints of the world
And all that could be wrong I spose
regardless of it all and anything at all
Today I smelt a rose
I was walking past a little old ladies fence
And there it simply so beautiful it grew
The fragrance reached out and captured me so
Like a fragrance Id never known or knew
The simple fragrance of a sinle red rose
That caught me as I past by
And it alone gave me such a Godly gift
as it grew there under the bluest ever sky
Just a rose I suppose
But GOD it saved the day
As its fragrance for the smallest time
Took all of my woes away

If we like it or not we are learning every day
And we will do so more-so as time goes on
Never heard such fact and honsty in my life
And all in the words of a one of song

You ll Honestly Find

The shape of the mountains
Determined by the trees~
The shape of the clouds
By the wind and the breeze~
The shape of our lives
Determined by others~
By friends and by parents
People we meet and by lovers~
By those that capture and hold
Our hearts and our minds~
Not a lot is our doing
You ll honestly find~

Oh how I do adore a coming storm
The air so fresh and very pure
The feeling that the thunder gives
Is one my soul within can so endure
It fills a being with adrenalin
Giving an energy often hard to explain
Watching as it rolls on slowly in
With the promise of the purest rain
We get all the rain we need we do
But there's nothing I love like a storm
And most of all if it contains lightening
How I love to watch it so as it does perform
A natural and beautiful symphony of energy
It does something for and to a soul
I've always love a storm ever so it's true
Since back when I was but a few years old

All the answers to questions asked
Nature has them all upon view-
Every direction ' choices to be made
Nature naturally portrays them all for you-

Natures vows , then .. Where and How
Even the clouds tell of the future too-
The oceans and seas tell of destiny-
Wisdom from all of living nature true-

The trees they all tell of past and future
As do the grasses upon the plain-
Wisdom rides upon every wind and breeze
So much to learn from snow and rain-

All upon earth with natural worth
There's answers to questions that be-
All are there beyond compare to view
If only all could both read listen and see-

It really is the smallest world this day
In a strange city my hotel room taken
Never knew just what to do its true
All plans here both costly and forsaken

Went to a bar as to think awhile of it all
Ordered a beer and the bar maid said
I know you , You lived next door it's true
In my home town back then I was wed

A girl I once went to school with long ago
Thousands of miles across oceans were we
Where are you staying she asked me softly
I then explained to her to some as if degree

Oh she said I have a place with spare room
Your welcome to come with me and to  stay
Not only saved all of my woe but friends too
Turned out to be one very pleasant holiday

It's a small world we live in that's for sure
And it all turned out to be ever so very fine
We became the best friends ever so far away
An unplanned convenience almost divine

A coming together as never in life ever before
A knowing so new to a soul-
A being as one has never ever known
An experience as if from earliest days of old-
A riddle almost hidden in clouded mystery
A falling golden leaf as if from heaven above-
A moonbeam so heart penetrating to a soul
Unexplainable feelings of real true love-
An embracing as hearts have never known-
A smile sent from the most distant star-
An unexpected answer to true loves fulfillment
A depth of desire to carry a soul so far-
A purity to win that heart and a soul within
A blessing from God in all from above-
A becoming as if being born once again
Unexplainable feeling's of real true love-
A gentleness of first signs of an autumn dawn
A warmth of a welcoming winters open fire-
A goodness as good as goodness can be
A positivity as the most positive of desire-
As beautifully captivating beyond all debating
The most precious of feelings in life ever to call-
Almost the most potent ingredient of all things good
That's as loving as true love can possibly be at all-
A knowing , a going , an almost mind blowing
A real blessing in all divine destiny-
An unbreakable vow to last forever and how
The one thing that have two souls know ecstasy-
A being within , Heavenly with out traces of sin
A souls blessing that becomes so a part of same-
A feeling of beautiful ease contentment and tease
A never wanting to ever go back ever again-
All a souls heart could ask as in it it basks
A very reason for being born from above-
All an entity ever needs to feel as whole as can be
The many unexplainable feelings of real love-

Way down by the bluest lake side just me
Warmest sunshine and a gentle breeze
My boat ******* there to dock on line
Shade drifts over waters edge from trees
Sitting in the boat with book and nibbles
As the boat drifts out some on the line
Listening to the music of the ripples under
Dozing there now and then just for a time
Watching the clouds ever so high up above
Many shapes they make in their own design
Thinking of a few times and memories  gone
Upon this spring beautiful lake side divine
Ever so very blue above the highest sky
Birds slowly in formation fly over so very slow
So peaceful down by the spring time lake side
Nature and it's gifts such good company it's so
A smallest ever fish it dives above the glaze
Of the water as if supposed to view and see
As I sit back relaxing within my boat there
Nature and it's many gifts such lovely company.

Wagon train longest line a few miles a day
Seeking new lives adventure property new home..
Family loaded wagons on long untraveled trails
All together like birds of feather others alone..

So long ago when there was room still to know
Where only oldest tribes had ever been before..
Places endless later came to live and to grow
Miles of open country so many came to adore..

Populating also bringing woe as populating does
Endless land open plains mountains valleys deep..
All the while in natural ways and natures style
Wild flowers grew springs from mountains creep..

All a natural thing nature does bring over a time
The human race new places to embrace at a pace..
Nature has a natural mind of it's own you'll find
Nature God upon earth being one in natural grace..

If all could work with nature many obstacles gone
As everything else does a truth should be known..
As the highest strongest winds there are no sins
Since time began along with nature all have blown..

Nature the creator of our planet all that exists
Yet the human race feels it has a natural say..
All of woe would not be at all for all to know
Creating their own problems as they go each day..
