The strange thoughts, go through my head.
Perhaps I should just, go back to bed.
The life we love in these days
At this very moment, does me, amaze.

I want to tell you
What life is about.
The love another,
Will scream and shout,
To all the heavens
Of a love so devout,
While it's painfully happy,
Will never give out.

Will you ever come back to me,
So the way we were, will be,
The life we shared, with deep emotion
And will be one of loves devotion?

If I were you, which I am not,
I would be thankful, for what I've got.
Give thanks to your God, that's up above,
That you do not hate, but you do love.

You don't read
what I write,
but please know,
that's all right.
You are here,
within my sight,
as the daylight,
turns to night.

It is time, for me to try
To do some good, before I die.
It's not a compulsion, don't you see,
It's something that I need for me.
An act of offering a helping hand
And bring civility back to this land.

I hear the shatter of glass
in the street.
I see a ball, a mass
at my feet.
I look around to see who,
performed that feat.
It was then I saw you,
making your retreat.

My mind is such a crazy place,
Filled with hurtful thoughts, lacking grace.
Why's that, you may ask of me?
I'm not certain, it's OK to be,
Happy, when my life's a mess
And all I'd like is a hug and kiss.

It was some rain we needed
And it was rain, we got.
All the places I have seeded,
May soon begin to rot.
If my luck is good this day
they will begin to root, a lot.
Spring should provide a colorful array.
Of Columbines and Daffodils
To brighten up the day.

Life has been so good to me,
But not so good to you, I see.

A younger, carefree man, was I
When roaming the World, I did try.
My Uncle had made room for me,
By providing a room with the US Navy.

In the early morning hours,
Before the start of day.
The Sun hasn't risen yet,
But is on it's way.
There's dew on the ground,
I hear cars go by,
As the breeze from their passing,
Swirling around, ankles and feet,
While I'm moving very slowly,
Hearing this old heart beat.
