Outpouring Of Love

I write from my feelings, deep within;
intending your sorrows to share;
sometimes, I don’t know where to begin;
wanting to show others, I care.

Strangly enough, such feelings return;
emotions travel in a circular fashion;
from such energies, I’m able to learn;

The Angelic Rose

A beautiful red bird entered my world;
a flower of a rose wearing wings;
into the world this Cardinal was hurled;
strutting with the trappings of kings.

Why he had come; no one knows;
he had simply come from nowhere;
and Perfection in red took his pose;

A Hero To One

I traveled alone down the country road,
where I’d been, so many times before.
This time I carried an emotional load;
