Longing
I have a longing for something undefined,
Each day it grows, in my heart, entwined.
A yearning for something I cannot name,
An elusive desire, like a flickering flame.
It tugs at my soul, a mysterious allure,
A yearning so deep, so pure, and so sure.
I seek it out, though I know not what for,
This unnamed longing, I can’t ignore anymore.

Out of Place
In a world where I often feel out of place,
A constant struggle, a never-ending chase.
Surrounded by faces, yet feeling alone,
Yearning for somewhere that feels like home.

Touchdown
Excitement fills the air
Players racing across the field
Fans cheering, hearts pounding

CLUMSY
FALL
DIVE
Clive was a clumsy fool
but he didn’t pay it no mind
Day in and day out he would fall and dive
Out of people’s ways
But every time he would say
At least I stuck my landing

Stay in the Game

Deep anchor of will
Always keeps me in the game
Never giving up
Striving for my very best,
Pushing past all the limits

A slice of heaven
Sweetest delight in a plate
Sheer deliciousness.
the drippy gooey goodness
I love every scrumptious bite

Heartbreak

Sky blue you left me
Lying in an empty bed
Resting all alone.
Painful tears run down my face
For a love that never was

Embrace Nature

Green trees and bushes
Warm gentle breeze, that pushes
Leaves fly in whooshes.
Nature’s beauty never rushes
Peaceful moments, nature hushes

Diphthongs

I’m using diphthongs
To coin a phrase and again
Mean meaning or meant.
To express my thoughts so clear
In words that resonate near

Soft Winter Sunshine

Wintery sunshine
Soft pale white translucent rays
Light everything.
Sparkling radiance shines bright.
See the beauty all around.

A Train’s Tale
Poor Ted the train, chugging along,
Minding his business, singing a song.
When, out of the blue, a fallen tree,
Blocked his path, oh what misery!
With a puff of steam and a loud toot,
Ted tried to move it, oh what a hoot!
But the tree wouldn’t budge, it stood so tall,
Ted needed help, he couldn’t do it all.

Am I Just a Task?
I attend to everyone,
But when do I attend to me?
Do they see me as a person,
Or a thing to do what they need?

CHORE
DUSTER
POLISH
Chores can be such a bore,
Not enough muster to use the duster,
Dishes piled high, sweeping the floor,
I’d rather be a dreamer than auster.
But duty calls, so I roll up my sleeves,
And tackle each task with a sigh,
Hoping that soon I’ll be free to believe,
In a world where chores can’t reach so high.
