A NEW DAY Come greet the dawn Of blessed morn From sacred night This day is born. At start of day With promise bright All basking in This golden light. Come lift your head And share your smile Chat with someone And stay a while. Just know this day Is yours to take And good…

The Poet I sit and stare at unmarked page My lack of thoughts some sign of age? Or other blight upon my brain? But I will carry on and on Until what words I have are gone. Despite words driving me insane. I cannot help this urge I feel To bring rebellious verse to heel.…

So it’s April and that means NaPoWriMo is once more upon us. I wrote this yesterday, but didn’t take the time to post it. A REQUEST Hello again, my foe, my friend. That time of year, I hope, I fear. A time for dreamers, and for fighters and for those who wish to heal. This…

Just take a step, One single step, Each one leads to one more. And with each step, Each single step, You’re farther than you were. So take a chance, Take just one chance, You thought you’d never take. Then find your life, And seize that life, Go live the life you make. It’s harder far,…

I think I mentioned last time that things get a little strange once the creativity starts flowing. Well, hopefully I can finish on a slightly more normal note. A Note To My Therapist A dream perhaps and yet more real, than I have known before. How can I know the truth of it, what’s…

Sometimes when I wrench open the creative valve, the weirdest things get washed out. On Ghosthunters A figure faintly seen at night, there in the empty place. If you could gain a closer view, would you gaze on it’s face? It walks there every night alone, even when it’s not seen. Would you…

Yay! Day 27 complete. Only three more to go before bed. Or maybe tomorrow. We’ll see how if there’s anything left in the old “creative juice” bottle. Lost Youth When we were young we did not think, beyond the present day, We lived our lives just for right now, we knew no other way.…
