Butterfly visits
Momentarily seeks home
Everlasting peace

Tiger lay sleeping
Garden filled with baby's breath
Pillowed treasured cat

Breathtaking Eagle
Soars high in the cloudy sky
Eyes peering downward
Tis beginning of winter
Hunting for food to survive

Love (Acrostic) No.2
Lying beside you, watching you sleep.
Owning the moment, I began to weep.
Vigor and zest you possess with flare.
Everlasting love together we’ll share.

Love Acrostic No.3
Loving you feels like the soft touch of velvet rain.
Over the hills we’ll walk together again.
Violet eyes, ruby lips, a beautiful smile.
Every step a blessing walking down the aisle.

A Film To Sea
Far away in the distance,
a shadow cast upon the sea.
Upon arriving closer,
that shadow bled a travesty.
Hundreds of fish lay still,
a film upon the water.
A sad displeasing sight to view,
sad for me, sad for you.
Toxic waste bares its ugly face.
Progress has a dirty hand.
The ecosystem is in danger.
Our Sea, Our Land.

Christmas Eve
Tis Christmas Eve with all the splendor of
Christmas lights gleaming through crystal
Glasses placed strategically among clusters
Of soft white cotton snow.
The room is filled with a scent of fresh pine,
Enjoyed by all who sit to dine
We reach our glasses in a toast to Jesus
And thank him for his grace
We celebrate this joyous Christmas Eve
with Jesus at the head of our table

What Money Can’t Buy
You look good and you know it too
Why no one is as pretty as you
You bought yourself a new car,
Fancy clothes, going to the bar.
High heel shoes, elegant jewels
Ready to party, no hard rules
You think you’re full of class
Your money says it’s so
Always on the go, spending that money
Well just remember this honey
Money can’t buy you class, happiness or respect
Not knowing what you’re doing, be careful what you get.

You Can't Touch Me
You Can’t Touch Me
You can’t touch me
I have the strength of dolphins soaring o’re the sea
You can’t touch me
Iam the cunning tiger hidden behind the forest trees
You can’t touch me
I’am the flames that burn beneath the earth
You can’t touch me
I’am the glitter of diamonds rough
You can’t touch me
I’am the snow and the rain
I can give you health or take away your pain
but you can’t touch me just the same.

Water Nymph (Fantasy Poem)
Water Nymph come swim with me,
in the deepest valleys of the sea.
Swim through the eddies,
flirt with the sea ladies.
Many treasures here for you and me.
sirens of the sea waving happily.
Water nymph, water nymph,
did you see, they waved at me.
Come water nymph come swim with me.
Enjoy the vastness of the deep blue sea.
There are sea monkeys, sirens, mermaids and more.
Maybe we can take some treasures back to shore.
Oh cmon water nymph, don’t be shy.
Come swim with me, watch the boats sail by.
