Left To Lament

Left To Lament

The world is floundering; our agony grows;
our silence has become assent;
reaping the whirlwind; a generation, sows;
the righteous are left to lament.

paying little or no attention to the masses;
while the war mongers, love to sabre

Kiss Of Dreams

Kiss Of Dreams

I looked into your eyes of yesterday;
lovers; many lifetimes, ago;
my thoughts slowly became today;

The Unkindest Cut Of All

The Unkindest Cut Of All

What is it that brings thoughts to a boil;
placing our backs against the wall;
what feels like a stab; from sabre or foil;

Persistence

Persistance !

Our greatest temptation is to give up;

God's Greatest Gift

God’s Greatest Gift

I believe that all are destined for good;
supremely gifted in life;
very often, our destiny is misunderstood;
and failures cut like a knife.

Many are given great physical talents;
that most others wish they had;
life must be lived with a sense of balance;
