SLICES OF MY LIFE
In a journal on my table
Beside my favorite pen
You will find revealing verses
Where only lines had been
I’ve filled the pages with the muse
That touches deep inside
And you can read what’s written there
When the book is opened wide
There is verse about my children
And some about my mate
There are even [...]

HER ESSENCE
After she was gone
I found scraps of paper
everywhere.
Each piece torn
from whatever was at hand
when thoughts possessed her mind,
or touched her heart.
Little reminders
jotted down when senses
stirred her to capture
a piece of beauty
or a [...]

You Are A Poem
If I could make my life a poem,
There’d be a verse for you
Because you are a special friend,
With credits overdue.
And I think YOU are a poem, my friend;
I see it many times.
There’s beauty in your heart and soul,
One finds in songs and rhymes.

HEAVEN IN A CHILD
I caught a glimpse of Heaven today
When a little child of three
Danced around my flower beds
With a look of blissful glee

When she giggled while at play
Sounds I’ll carry in my heart
Forever and a day
I felt a bit of Heaven today
When she wooed [...]

A MOMENT LONG AWAITED
He came to me last night
to tell me he was sorry.
As he held me close
he kissed away my tears,
and I could feel his heart
beating in harmony with my own.
He whispered assurances
of undying love,
and I whispered mine.
Then from out of nowhere
came the soft strains
of our favorite song,
and we danced as one,
lost in deep [...]
