The Gentleman Who
What is it about riches and fame;
that draws us, like flies to a meal;
what about a reputation or name;
can they, true character, reveal?
I’d like to be known as who I am;
not, who I long to become;
for I am a life,

The Flood Of Feelings
Why do deep feelings flow out of control;
are we unable to stem their flow?
Can we not be master of our own soul?
Please tell me why it’s not so.
How is it that feelings even begin;
where is it they get their start?
Irrelevance
Your life didn’t start at twenty;
it didn’t even begin with birth;

although to the Source; he was related;
he was creating a new world; alone.

illusions are the only sensuality;
bodies are only ours, on loan.
A veil separates heaven and earth;
guarded by a flaming sword;
representing both death and birth;
and the place of final reward.
Truths of life
…Retreat
Sometimes when we go on vacation;
we just want to get away;
we don’t wish to travel across the nation;
we just don’t want life in our way.
Our mind, filled with troubles and worry;
we need some inner protection;
so all our thoughts seem to scurry;
Only The Strong Love
It’s oft been said, “Only the strong, survive;”
it holds deeper meaning than most know;
you could be, physically, the strongest, alive;
and, not know how, to make love grow.
Love is a most mystical, eternal power;
its force is required to make us grow;
