2013 - Year of Enlightenment

Imagine freedom of speech What schools should teach Open to new ideas, not preach Imagine being safe everywhere No guns, no violence No fear of being dead Imagine world leaders who embrace Peace and safety for humankind Regardless of origin or race Imagine e veryone is treated the same No religion or preten sions Working in unison is the aim   Imagine for every child Love only multiplies At least a thousand times Imagine no hate for others Embrace all humankind For only love matters

Angels

Angels are not made of wings They are made of small things   They are humble and loving Always giving and never angry   When an angel smiles You will smile too   Their laugh is contagious It always gets to you   An angel will brighten your day Help you along the way   It might take time to find one But when you do, you will remember   Angels are not made of wings They are made of small things  

Thankful

I am thankful for The Moon and the Stars The Sun and the Earth below, The mountains and the valleys The ocean, the lakes, the rivers, And the streams that flow. I am thankful for The trees that give fruit And the ones that do not so, For their beauty is all year long, Their green branches give me Shade in a hot summer day, Their lovely flowers and sweet Perfume awaken my senses In a spring afternoon, In the fall, their leaves full Of color remind me of the rainbow. I am thankful for The birds and their young, And all the living things Including the beasts free to roam, For they are all part of this Beautiful world that That I want to love and know! I am thankful for The children that cry And the children that glow, For their mothers and their fathers, Their aunts, uncles and grandparents, Who love them so? May all children of the world be loved as they grow!

Autumn

As the wind pushes me through the air I dance around care free I don't care if the end is near Or the fall for me is here   In the sky above, above land up high I change colors, I am not shy Sunny days, cool and crisp nights Invite me to tumble, each and every time I am a whisper in the wind One of many in a big tree A speck in the forest One of many for you to see   I have reached high into the sky Kept watch over a starry night Gazed upon a shooting star I was a gentle rustle in a windy night And a lullaby to a small child   I was once a burst of joy In a sunny spring afternoon Lived in a tree in full bloom Rain quenched my thirst In a hot summer afternoon   My, oh my! How time has gone by!   As you see me tumble by On a sunny fall afternoon Think of all the things I did And all the things I’ve seen!

Cycle of Life

From the time you’re born Till the time you’re old Wondering here and there Throughout this world A baby’s face so soft and smooth Crying out for a change and food A baby’s smile brightens the day A young man’s laugh at going astray Young teenager fierce in his ways Tormenting his parents for better days Young man gone into this world Only to find out, it’s all too cold Lady in waiting for a prince Only to find out, there is no such thing Love or love not Running fast to beat the clock When you become old Everywhere you go, it seems cold You are no longer cute Your crying needs becomes astute As if waiting for death The body does not seem to care Taking it one day at time No longer in it’s prime As the end is near You can barely hear Repeat…repeat…repeat Believe in love, before life is complete

I Walk Alone

The winding paths of life Bring me to realize I walk alone   For all the days in my life Some good, some bad I walk alone   Through every crevice in the hill And the strength of my will I walk alone   Through love or tenderness Love fills emptiness I walk alone   Every need or feeling I have begged, kneeling Yet, I walk alone   Every disaster brings sadness The vein of emptiness hardens I walk alone   So I ask myself Is there peace to thyself? Yes, there is, Nature is my peace! Yet, I walk alone

Nude

You might call me crazy But I feel hazy Such a sight, I can’t put out of my mind Please go easy You are a tease Going nude in an ocean bath If you want to wow me... Love me tenderly, I might just pass out! Never before have I seen... A beaufitul manly thing! F rom head to toe naked, The hot sun glistens on your body You look good, big and hard! You might call me crazy But I feel hazy Such a sight, I can’t put out of my mind Please go easy You are a tease Going nude in an ocean bath

Sail Away

Sail away Sail away Sail away Sail away into the mist Sail away into the fountain of thirst Sail away my love… Sail away Sail away to the pinnacle of the earth Sail away to where man has never been Sail away to the fountain of youth Sail away my love… Sail away Take me to the end of time Make passion burn deep inside Oh! You told me so! Love through me would flow, Through every vein deep into my soul! I want to love you till the end of time Light up your soul Like a rainbow in a thunderous sky To be in your arms When the sun shines Through a thunderous sky Through mud or sand Till the very end You are my love desperado The one and only aficionado Sail away Sail away Sail away Sail away into the mist, Sail away into the fountain of thirst Sail away my love… Sail awaaaayy

Save Face

If you must pace To save face Think of this, Your life needs a twist. Think you are the only one w ith a problem? Think again, look all around. As of late, all you do is save face, To keep up with the pace. Keeping up with the pace to  save face Gives you an ego high, Burying who you really are deep inside. Your life is the future Holding grudges Makes you a looser Come on then Be the best you can See, see Feel free All together now You and me All together now Clap your hands And aim high See, see Feel free All together now You and me All together now Let us aim high Let go of the pain Feel good deep inside.  

Heaven On Earth

Under the stars The future was bright. The moon was full, Of bright shining light! With a full mast, sailing ahead The canal was deep, It felt like heaven! More to the left, A tad to the right Navigating the ship, Was pure delight! It was like heaven on earth The more you do, The bigger the thirst! Man-O Man-O Man the ship Land Ho! That’s because it’s heaven on earth. The more you do, The bigger the thirst! Man-O Man-O Man the ship Land Ho! Heaven on earth! Heaven on earth! The more you do, The bigger the thirst!

American Male

American male Get out of your jail! You are so constrictive, Makes you so unpredicted. As you look for answers In all the wrong places, As if wanting to trade places. Every day, you ask yourself Why am I so torn inside? This is not my kind of life! It is no wonder, Why you ponder. Why blame everything on the other gender? Have a heart, Do not run away from your past. Looking only ahead, You will only feel more despair. No matter how much you run, No matter how much you despair. There is no answer, No one is there. It is a real mystery of love and hate, All of us want to proclaim. The problem is not me! But we all fail the test miserably. The answer lies in you, by trading places, Not looking for answers in new faces. Looking only through a thin looking glass, Refusing to let go of your troubled past.  

Man-o-sphere

As you sit at your desk, In a suit, freshly pressed Dreaming of work That could easily get you hooked In a man-o-sphere where men lie, Instead of doing work, of nine to five Man up, grow some beard Or you will be sent to stratosphere You got your eye on the candy lady The way she acts, is a bit shady Man up Man up This one is not fat Slim and steadfast Get up Get up Take action Forget your past Man up Man up Get up Get up Are you man now? Can you come now? Will you show her around town? Get up Get up Reverse gear and run fast!  

Oh Yeah!

O h yeah! You don’t exist anymore Oh yeah! Because now I am in control Oh Yeah! I got back my soul Oh Yeah! Your game is getting too old Yeah, yeah, yeah! I got you now Where I want you to be I got you now Now you will stop teasing me I got you now I got back my soul Your game is too old Oh Yeah! I’m whole again Your control with me is done With tricks up your sleeve Oh! And think you know me Oh yeah? I got you now You don’t exist anymore Because now I am in control I got back my soul Your game is too old I got you now Oh Yeah!

Seed of Hate

Humanity is indeed very frail To be human is to fail To feel is to be human The less we feel, The less we are understood. Humanity is being jeopardized At the seed of hate We are compromised. As humanity feels less and less At the seed of hate, we will never rest In the pinnacle of pain, we feel nothing We invoke the One’s name in despair And in his name, curse those who were there. In a manner that once was unforeseen We hate what cannot be seen We call upon him for justice Yet through the seed of hate We behave such as beasts and bastards. In the miracle of doom Somehow we hang on Day after day, marching along The seed of hate is within us We feel it, smell it, and behave as such. Every human being is happy and sad Feeling too much is good and bad In the wake of horror and despair At dooms end, we wish not to go there But the seed of hate is within us Flaring deep inside, we curse all others. For humanity’s sake let us wake up Do w...

Hands of Mine

With these hands of mine I comforted you through the night Loving you time after time Wiping your tears when you cried Caressing your soft baby skin While singing you a lullaby Why then do I cry? You have grown up, that is why! You are not the little boy that used to be Things are different now, if you only knew I miss the days you fell asleep in my arms All cuddled up, your tender skin against mine With these hands of mine G ently I covered you through the night When you were deep asleep, Gently I would touch your face Making sure the fever you had Had escaped With these hands of mine Time after time, I would reach out To guide you down a safety path While you walked Through the path of life As a tear shed from your eye I ask, why do you cry? But in a deep voice you tell me Mom, I do not cry! I just miss the days that have gone by.

UNREQUITED LOVE

Love is fitting To only some The need to love Unfit to none   Love is precious We all know Accept my love? I cannot cope! My heart felt loved But I not ready With a shy smile, I run away Scared that you, may not stay I still hold you dear in my heart Our love, a thing of the past To this day, I can still remember A loving heart, the feeling tender Forgive me, will you? That feeling, to me was new! You did not understand, I could feel your anger! I only wish that you knew My love for you, only grew If only you could accept This loving heart at it’s best!

Beauty

Beauty is upon me In the glow of my skin The flow of my hair The child within Beauty is all of me The words I speak Love I hold for you, My heart skips a beat Beauty is precious In fact, it is a treasure When you find it, Keep it, learn to appreciate it Beauty is all around In the eyes of a child In the sun that shines Even in a smile Beauty is to appreciate The good and the bad At the end of the day All things are so rad Beauty is in you, and in me If only we knew Open up the horizon To begin anew Beauty is, what was Yesterday, today, and tomorrow All the tender memories Make us feel loved, not befallen

Life After Death

In the midst of this agony Such deep pain and grief I weep so hard for you Even small steps Are too much to handle for me Living is hell for me Dead would end my agony My heart aches a thousand times If only I could look again into your eyes Out of sorrow I weep For the martyrdom of suffering I can’t keep living this lie It tears me up inside If only I could tell you A million times if I had the time To sit by your bedside And tell you over and over I love you, it is no lie And the day that death Kept us apart I tell you, it broke my heart I would gladly give up my life So you could live just one more time I embraced your lifeless body Kissed your forehead and stroked your arm Pleaded with you to open your eyes Please just one more time Please, please don’t die Without saying goodbye But you didn’t respond And your body was ice cold Nothing I said mattered anymore You were dead and gone Your heart had stopped beating You and I alone in this ...

Loving You

Every time I think of you Happens so often if you only knew I dream of you day and night I wish I could be in your arms tonight I imagine being in your arms Kissing your lips one more time Feeling your hands caressing me Surrendering to you and just be In love with you forever more Feeling your touch all over I imagine looking into your eyes Feeling your lips against mine Will there be a day that we Take our love to ecstasy? Will there be a day we never forget When we meet at my doorstep? For me, every day I am with you You are in my thoughts, it’s true I do not wish to ever leave you Is it the same for you?

Shining Knight

Once upon a time There was a knight Strong, loving, and kind Made me feel loved inside Everyday he would rise To fight and win every time He fought hard and fierce Every battle he fought, ended in peace For he believed in justice Though seldom that happens He was no ordinary knight His wisdom shined through the night His smile was bright His heart so kind His touch, firm and light His kiss imprinted forever in my mind He was the man I fell for The love of my life forever more A man that wants his woman by his side To love and to hold, and share his life This poem is based on a fictional loving and kind man who is yet to be found :)

In loving memory of Whitney Houston

A Friend in Need

Mike is his name Known worldwide With friends everywhere He fights a dark stormy night He feels so alone Yet he is loved by all So many ups and downs Are his life shortfalls   The day is gloomy outside No Sun shining in the horizon He gets up to go to work To pay the bills and keep his housing His family loves him so That he does know But life is so hard Full of demands on the go He needs power to keep going A pat in the back for the good job he’s doing Melancholic and boring, a job needs to be done He would rather be home photo shopping a bum His heart is set He does not care if he gets wet Wondering the streets on a rainy day With camera in hand, he comes across A very loving and wise man   That is the man that he would rather be At peace with himself and his artistry Taking photos of a world he knows rather well As if awoken from a dream This man is Mike Shaw Loving and c...

We Humans

We humans Looking frail and stressed Working, playing and buying Just to keep ahead of the rest We humans Strong but poorly designed Wanting to fit in but Always running out of time We humans Are a powerful machine When all parts work As a strong team We humans are no longer pure Brain washed since birth To believe in the unknown Too many worries and no mirth We humans Need to embrace everybody Believing in religion for hate Makes you look like a coward We humans, since the beginning of time Created religion for survival To bring people together Not to destroy human kind We humans believed in heaven But it does not exist Let us stop hating each other Believe in the freedom of speech We humans Need to wake up Live a full and joyous life Before our time is up
