Overcoming the Storm OVERCOMING THE STORM
Into the storm I must venture, knowing that any attempt to flee only prolongs the ravages.
Like any storm, it is relentless and destructive, just as a well-organized group of savages.
It rips and tears at the flesh with sharp talons, trying to gouge deeper into the muscle.
Perceived as high and lofty, it disregards...

Through Cosmic Dust, a Guiding StarIn the nebula of your spirit's vast despair,
When asteroid fields of sorrow wildly flare,
Stand like a celestial beacon, constant and bright—
Let your laughter be the starlight that conquers night.
Though cosmic clouds may swirl, a dense eclipse,
Your radiance can pierce the dark abyss's lips.
For every void surrenders to a solar birth,...

Grabbing a StarI grabbed hold of a star today
And held on with all my might
The brilliance was magnificent
So I closed my eyes
As I was determined to savor this light
I grabbed hold of a star today
And pulled it to my heart
The energy was amazing
So I tightened my grasp
As I would not be torn apart
I grabbed hold of a...

Why?
Tears compel my heart to scream, then sigh
still as the winter's breath who inspires
Listening to my soul's grief, I search the sky
glistening stars, moon and dream admires
Grace grows in the heavenly realms, oh why?
Everywhere I go I feel the glow of love's fire...

Camping With The FriendsOnce upon a time, it was a good day to be camping with the friends,
We stroll into the campgrounds, put the logs into the firepit,
Light the fire in the fire pit, get out our marshmallows,
We sit on the makeshift benches, we have the ingredients,
To make our Mountain Dew glow in the dark,
We exchange ghost...

Paris, the tiny starIn a world too big for one so small,
You walked with pride, stood ten feet tall.
A heart of gold in a dainty frame,
Paris, sweet pup, we still say your name.
Your paws once tapped across the floor,
A rhythm we won’t hear anymore.
But echoes linger in every room,
A light that cuts through even gloom.
Wrapped in bows or...

Sequential Star Light DanceSequential Star Light Dance
Form: Ottava Rima
The stars align in steps we cannot see,
A waltz of thought, of time, of soul unrolled.
Each shimmer sings a silent symphony—
A coded tale in light and spiral told.
They move as one in timeless unity,
Though split by myths the ancients dared unfold.
Each star a pulse, each orbit knows the trance—
The sky...

If Wishing Makes it So
If only my wishing could make it so,
I would humbly ask for just two things...
To touch a star and set its light aglow
and hear an angel's voice when it sings...

When You Wish Upon a StarThere will be days, I know not when
When thoughts of you will once again
Revisit me and fill my mind
With movie scenes of love, the kind
That sits on laps, or better yet,
Fades into a big sunset
Another place, another time
But I can always dream, can't I?...

Sparks of a dark nightThe glow in my life can’t dim,
It kindles as starlight,
Revealed as sparks of a dark night,
But consumed by great heights.
Still shines when the twilight deepens,
When the sun no more shows,
And carpets of darkness are laid,
The moonlight just then glows.
At dawn, the new day births the sun,
Its brightness in the sky~
A light that clears the darkest...

Heart RhythmsWho am I?
I'm that star in the sky
that remains
when all the other stars have run away
I'm the last raindrop
that dances on the rooftop
at the end of a stormy day
I'm that leaf that clings
to the tree
when the other leaves have accepted their fate
I'm the last second
of that minute of that hour
that urges the...
