Corporate

They asked me

And I showed them the facts.

They asked me again

And I said what I thought.

They asked me again

And I didn't agree.

Now they don't ask me.

Christmas Love

It’s a time of year when our family remembers
The blessings of loved ones and friends.
Like the glow and warmth of fireside embers,
They light up our life with joy that each sends.

Melancholy Math of Life

First quarter is filled with doubts and fears.
Second quarter is infected with jabs and jeers.

Third quarter recoups these wasted years.
Last quarter reminisces lost smiles and cheers.

I Live for Love

I live for love, not money or power,
Remembering that during my final hour,
My merit will be measured

Not by materials treasured.
My real worth will be the pleasure
I’ve given others on earth.

Live Before Dying

Every sunrise sets
After a gorgeous day.
Each flower wilts
After its beautiful display.

All animals enjoy their existence
During a very short stay.
Sadly man has yet to understand
What all these others say.

A Tale of S

Ships sail silently shriveling sandy sun-drenched shores.
Suddenly some sailors see sparkling specks shining.

Surrounding sights singe sexually starved seamen.
Strong, sagacious sailors suffer such specious settings.

Three of Me

The one I feel in me.
The one the world does see.
And the one I could be.

My fate lies in the space
Between what I could be,
And what I put in place
For the world to see.

If this gap is small,
Perhaps there can be
Just one me.

Five Senses of Love

THE SMELL OF FRESHLY WET GROUND

AND THE SOUND OF A WREN'S SONG,

ALONG WITH THE SIGHT OF A ROSE

ARE THOSE THINGS I HOLD DEAR.

BUT SHEER BLISS...

IS THE TOUCH OF YOU, BELOVED

AND THE TASTE OF YOUR KISS.

A Special Guy

To me you are a special guy
Who has a lot of class.
That's exactly the reason why
It's an honor to be your lass.
You're intelligent and show respect.
Honesty is your guide.
You're sensitive to those of neglect.
I'm proud to be at your side.
