"WE"
"WE WALK, WE MAKE FOOTPRINTS, WE SMELL THE ROSE"
"WE"
We walk, we talk, we see.
We feel, we sing, we play.
We think we saw each other.
We have friends, we have no friends.
We have people in our lives that are here.
We have people in our lives that stay.
We have people in our lives that go.
We have people in our lives that are flaky,
Like last year's biscuits, they flake off and then
They harden into pastry without any taste.
The honey they once said they had now filled with nothing.
We live life, we pray to our creator, we must sustain our lives
Here on Earth.
The light of truth,
The light of the creator,
Others are they,
Who are they?
My world is my own.
My world is not for facades.
My world is not for fakers who discard,
Who gossip and carry on about their own
Perfections and make do
About the hilarious
Precociousness of others.
They swallow, they look around bragging.
They are the ones, they are they.
They are on top.
Who is on the bottom of
Their investments,
They're who they are others are they?
The Rose is a picture of beauty.
The rose is a picture of thorns,
That underwrite the climb to the top,
To smell the roses.
Roses are a part of life,
Not just a part of a woman.
We must get stuck by a few thorns before
We smell the beauty of the scent of
The Rose.
Art is a part of life.
Art is culture. Art is a life form
Of increasing possibilities,
But sometimes life is characterized by thorny characters,
Of people who are the thorns.
We must overcome the thorns and the obstacles
That try to succumb to our very existence.
There are people who discriminate.
There are people who just do not care one way or another.
There are people who put others down to make themselves look better.
There are people and there are others who care.
There are big liars, there are truth makers,
There are others.
I believe in the universe, our creator, to help, to create.
To create life, art forms that exist in my life
And if someone else wants to tear me apart,
FORGET ABOUT IT!
"A ROSE IS RED"
A Rose in bloom
Is likened to our love,
Green grass, white seagulls,
The blue sea rushing against the shore.
The Rose in bloom,
See our love forever more.
A Rose in bloom
Is likened to our love,
Green grass, snow topped mountains,
The blue sea, the white seagulls,
The Rose in bloom
Is likened to our love,
Spreading petals outreached,
Blessed in each other's love
From the universe omnipotent and
The heavens above.
"FOOTPRINTS IN THE SAND"
Raindrops sprinkle the land
As I look into your eyes
And out across the sparkling blue ocean.
I think of our lives
And how, as of now they
Have become intertwined.
You look into my eyes,
You tell me you want to get so deeply
inside of me,
To see my secrets and
What I am thinking of
As we make
Footprints in the sand upon this mountainous land,
Footprints that are here today,
But tomorrow they will be gone,
Gone away into the deep dark blue ocean.
The breakers undulate towards the shore.
Our footprints, we see, behind,
Why can't we keep this moment together?
Our lives are intertwined today.
Our souls have met as one.
Thank you for the dream come true,
Of our footprints so deeply ingrained into
The sand,
I'll always love you.
