I See

I see a pretty picture But it is not complete The park bench is empty Where two people should be ~ And where are the children Laughing as they speak One counts aloud In their game of hide and seek ~ And what about the dog Splashing in the pond Sniffing out bullfrogs While staying… Read More I See

Fickle

Fickle wings flutter From one to the next Never satisfied Too busy to rest ~ But having found The sweetest of them all With just one kiss In love they will fall

Melody

Guardian Angel

Among us They lay in wait Eager to help Slow to hesitate ~ A friend When one is needed A corrector When a warning’s not heeded ~ Stepping in At just the right time To make things straight When they’ve gone awry ~ A personal protector Who’s got your back One who’ll hold you up… Read More Guardian Angel

Stepping Stone

Stepping from stone to stone Turning down an unknown road Eager to know where it ends Pausing to find a way back again Pushing on to take another step In a direction not traveled yet Never knowing if it’s right or wrong Going in the dark ‘til the dawn Struggling to carry The weight of… Read More Stepping Stone
