Total Failure

Total failure
Is not an option 
I’m taking 

Maybe drawbacks
Maybe roadblocks on the path
I’m creating 

Still I’ll stay
On my course, my dream
My yearning 

And
When I arrive 
I’ll realize

That I’ve been here 
From
The beginning.

I Hear The Grass Growing

I hear the grass growing
See the leaves unfurl
No clock ticking
Telling them their journey
Their time is now due
Yet each and every year
They know just what to do.

 The reason I’ve discovered
A mind
A mastermind is holding court
Creating, making things
The way they should be
And telling them
Just what they should do.

Spring Has Come

 

Spring has come and sweet blossoms blow
On a gentle breeze full of promise
Creating magic in this that could be
A nursery rhyme.
