Defeating An Enemy
We live in a world full of enemies,
or so we are lead to believe.
The best way to defeat an enemy
is not with bullets or bombs.
The best way to defeat an enemy
is to make that enemy a friend.

Dance Of Love
With tender looks
you fall into one another’s arms
the warm embrace
turns into passion there
as two hearts now beat as one.
Then the passion overflows
and the dance of love starts to begin.

Each Other’s Words
We sit around a table,
listening to poems spoken,
on different subjects.
Each one has a message
for each of us sitting there.
Each of us seeing,
something different,
in each other’s words.

Early Works - Changes
Changes
Monday sun
gilded light
heavens glow
where is time
where do we go
longing shadows
lingering
towards mid-day
disappear for an hour
relaxing
time for sun
changes.

Words Of Love
Words of love
are what we share
when we hold each other tight.
Words of love
that bind us together
each and every night.
Words of love
that will live with us
throughout our growing years.

Blowing In The Wind
Sometimes there is a song
blowing in the wind.
A melody filled with
the strings of love,
and when we hear it,
we know our time has come
to fall in love
with our one and only one.

Dance With Me
Dance with me
Through the rest of my years
Through the happiness
And the sorrows that bring tears
Dance with me
Consent to be my wife
And we’ll dance together
For the rest of our lives

Reluctantly
Love has a way
of getting you to do things
you don’t want to do.
It persuades you
that it is the right thing.
To save arguments
you reluctantly do it,
as it happens to be family.

Blue Sky
When there is a blue sky,
you know the sun is out
and there is warmth
to surround you
in everything you do.
The world is yours
with a smile on every face
when there is a blue sky.

No New Ones
I look at a line of empty seats
where students should be learning.
But where are the students
that used to fill this room.
They have all moved on,
but no new ones ever came back.
