Fountain Of Youth
Time as we grow old
is what we battle against
always seeking the impossible
our own fountain of youth.

Fences
Sometimes
we build fences
to keep things out,
other times
we build fences
to keep things we treasure in.

Love Came To Me (Fun Poem)
I’ve danced with stars
And raced with the moon
Across the milky way
My world has turned upside down
Because love came to me today

Whistle Down The Wind
There are days when I want to
whistle down the wind
just to blow all my troubles away
so that I can forget them for another day.

Sad Poem 1 (Someday Soon)
They came in hundreds to read my poems yesterday
But they all faded away today
I hope they will come back
Maybe tomorrow or someday soon

When Hearts Are Afire
When hearts are afire,
the passion burns bright.
There is no winter
of discontent there.
Only loves shining pinnacle
for all to see.

Early Works - Serpent In The Sky
Strange is the serpent in the sky
whose tail blots out the sun
and reeks the wrath of the gods
oh, this sly elusive one.

Darker Than Amber
Her eyes were
much darker than amber
as she beckoned to me
to come to her open arms
and live within them
for all eternity.

Helping People
You try to help a lot of people,
but only manage to help a few.
However, helping a few
is better that helping none at all.
