A Creature Of Obligation
My soul has been many beings, unfurled;
beginning as a seed of gestation;
then I became a baby in earth’s world;
and a child of society’s probation.
In my youth, I was to learn many things;
becoming a being of opportunity;
challenging thoughts of
No House Is A Home
A house that was home; became the past;
I never thought that it’d come to be;
I thought that home was meant to last;
for it had become a part of me.
A place where I scattered toys and clothes;

Pilgrimage Of Love
I awaken each day in a search for significance;

A Gift Of Purpose
Perhaps I’ve lived beyond my time;
not becoming who I’m to be;
failed to accomplish my soul’s design;

The Second Time Around
Most all of us seek a second chance;
seeing how life seems to confound;
to show we’ve learned how to dance;
