Powerful Feelings

Powerful feelings
potent times 
Master the transition from ordinary 
To the perfect time.

What Year Is This?

What year is this?
Is it the year
Of my freedom, my triumph?
Or just another disaster
I must and will master.

Creeping, crawling through
The sadness, the madness
Striving for some gladness
To dwell here in my heart
When will it start?

When will all this muddy
Turmoil leave, depart?
Nothing wrong
Just following along
With the throng.

Yes, nothings wrong
It’s just that
Nothings right
In this year
This year of sadness
I’m living tonight.

Solitary Sweetness

Solitary sweetness
Belief in the master plan
Smiling quietly as travelling
Down the path that expands.

Into a meadow
Full of promise and grace
Giving a chance at a life
With no mistakes.

Solitary time
Guided thru rhyme
Hearing the way
Of the master
Guiding with a master plan.

Never alone
On this solitary journey
Always there
With the master
Leading, guiding hand in hand.

My Heart Is Sad

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

My heart is sad and maybe a little mad
Not at the world but my attitude.
Who made me think I could chose
The way to travel thru this universe?

Not alone
Nor will I ever be
Able to master all this
I see before of me.

Be me humble and resolute
I will accomplish this I wish to
With a power greater
Than all of me.

This my heart must accept
For it will race with joy
As I master this
That has been brought
Before of me.

Thank you God
And the Lord above
Without your help
There would be no love.
