WHISPERS OF YOUR SOUL

 

Hear the whispers of your soul

Of these words that you were told:

“There will come a time to die,

And only then you will know why!”

So, it matters not what you own

But God will never leave us alone!

Everyone has an appointed time

(So, let that sink into your mind!)

It all started the day we were born,

But I guess we were never warned!

Young with the world by the tale –

Roses we never stopped to smell!

Hear the whispers of your soul:

“A time will come – this we know!”

WRONG BECOMES RIGHT

 

Have you ever felt like a caged Canary?

People act like Moe, Curry, and Larry!

I know sometimes I can even be a little contrary,

But enduring stupidity – the brain will tarry!

 

Look around! Look at this world . . .

It makes your brain want to twirl!

Some weirdo named his girl Earl –

And I saw a guy at Walmart dressed like a girl!

 

Wrong becomes right, and right becomes wrong,

But remember, it all starts at home!

We should never leave our kids alone –

Absence of direction will set its own tone!

 

Have you ever felt like a caged Canary?

Our world today leaves the heart weary!

PLEASE UNDERSTAND

 

As I sit and hold your hand

I hope you understand –

I will never make a demand

I’m just a broken man!

 

All these feelings I hold . . .

You just simply need to know –

It’s this broken heart I show

I hope I’m not being too bold?

 

More than these words can say,

And all the games I’ve played –

And the times I’ve been afraid,

But darling this is a new day!

 

As I sit and hold your hand

Please forgive this broken man!

THE MOON WAS GOLD

 

 

Thoughts in my mind are stuck!

(A beautiful girl – an old pick-up truck)

The night was young – the moon was gold!

Mountaintops covered from an April snow –

The windows were tinted with fog,

As we heard the sounds from a Bullfrog!

Soft music playing on the radio . . .

Our blood was rushing from head to toe!

Was it love or lust – how could I know?

Lost in time as moments unfold . . .

Some will call it luck or was it simply fate,

But passion is always better than hate!

Thoughts in my mind are stuck!

Of memories left in an old pick-up truck!

HOORAY

 

In the throes of time

All the things that come to mind –

Reasoning hasn’t come yet

Lost emotions stuck on “regret!”

Life can be a one-way street

Where ignorance and wisdom meet!

In truth, yesterday is gone . . .

Forget about right or wrong!

(Today is a new day)

I’m still alive – hooray!

There is no point in looking back –

Open the fridge – have a snack!

I must live for today,

And tomorrow won’t get in my way!

AMBIGUOUS

 

You say you love me,

But it’s your actions I see!

I understand things are complex,

But here I sit – what is next?

Words and actions have double meanings,

And how can I tell which way you’re leaning!

Love is just a word that you say . . .

Then you turn and look the other way!

It’s hard to figure out your intentions

Your words are vague – like directions!

You say you love me,

And I just need to let it be!

“I’ll address this sometime later,

See you later alligator.”

EVEN THE WIND

 

None will be silent,

None will be silent!

Even the wind, oh wind,

Hidden in the shadows,

Beneath the gray skies,

As the ground trembles

And no one cares.

 

But the truth lies in all of us,

Our names are unknown,

Not one, not one

On our lips, words spoken,

But who understands?

 

And issues are still unsolved,

But truth still outweighs a lie!

 

(no one cares anymore

And we will live and die alone.)

 

Be still, oh soul!

Cry, heart! Cry heart!

Tomorrow will come!

God will win!

God will win!

In the silence of time!
