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.

Success
Success is fraught with failures,
only those who keep trying in the face of adversity.
Will overcome the odds, and are the ones who will succeed.

My Solitude
The world is creeping up on me
here in my hideaway.
If I go it won’t be far
For where ever I go
the world will find me
and invade my solitude.

Life Without Love
What is life without love?
How often I have heard it asked,
only the very lonely,
can really answer that question,
the rest of us can only guess.

Early Works - The Secret Agent
The secret agent
His passport is courage
His name is invisible
His wit is high
His ears are big
His eyes are sharp
His end is a harp?
Date unknown

Cooperation
Cooperation is joining together
to help another
to believe in something
they might have thought
they could have never have done.

Cinderella Shoes
The party is over,
the last dance is playing,
and soon you’ll be going home,
and once again hanging up,
your Cinderella shoes.

Love And Friendship
Love and friendship
are the most precious gifts
than anyone can have
we must treasure them
less they slip through are fingers
like grains of sand.
