TRUMP

Ok getting brave here. I try to stay away from politics but ... sometimes you just gotta say it

Hey Mr President
so what ya gonna do

Can we actually rely on you
---

All the stories 
about you Mr Trump 
bring concern

The girls
you want to hump 

The healthcare 
you want to dump

The federal agents 
you want to bump
---

What's true
is to be seen

You appeared to
be so mean

I hope it was all 
a ploy 
to get your way
---

Surprise us 
Mr President
work hard every day

To clean up the mess
we’re all in

Give the media
new information to spin
---

Make it good
we’d be happy if you would

Just saying
Cuz I am praying

YOU GET THIS RIGHT!

JUST BREATH

Life can get pretty crazy. I am telling myself this poem. Breath and show up...best I can do sometimes

Breath...

and show up
for your life

Have faith

Rainbows will come
with treasures
from heaven...

JOY GONE BAD


 My doggie Beau loves to chase birds...the birds got the best of him!

Running thru the grass
was a blast

till my paw
got stuck in the mud

down I go
with a broken toe

now here I lie
with a cast.

TOMORROW

Confusion owns me 

like the web of a spider

Life seems to have
a sense of humor

Timing so wrong
on so many things

He owns my heart
like a vice 
too tight
I can’t breath
—-
But I long for him
I shake my head
on a regular basis
trying to get clarity

I hear people make 
sounds with their mouths
but can’t understand the words

My mind is filled with him
just him

Like the air in a helium balloon
so full of thoughts
they lift me out of the room
---
My thoughts haunt me

Did I walk away from 
the best thing in my life

or escape from 
the worst nightmare
I could imagine
—-
I write to him in invisible letters
they never get on the page

Instead I tell of common events 
of the day

Afraid to say
how I feel

He once was mine
but I ran like Julia Roberts
in “The Runaway Bride”

I want to bring him 
my shoes and nail them
to the ground 

So he sees I can stay 
some day

When I learn to trust
—-
Feels like an endless book
want to flip thru the chapters
get to the end to see what happens
but I can’t

I have to let it unfold
as it will
and try to hold 
onto my sanity

Find ways to look outside of the pain
so I don’t drown in the sea of endless sorrow

"There’s always tomorrow" claims
the famous song in the show “Annie”

Hope she’s right.

BLESSED

So a bit more up lifting. Relationships are always a mystery to me

Does true love
exist?

The kind where
a man would 
lay down his life
for his wife

A woman lets 
her man be a man

Mutual respect
outweighs
who is right 
and who is wrong

An undeniable
fire burns
with desire for both

Where divorce
is a word 
never spoken
or considered

If you can say “yes”
you are “blessed”

more than the wealthiest man
in the land.

TIME

When does my heart
stop breaking
stop aching

Love is not 
for the taking
for all

Love seems 
to come and go

Doesn’t seem 
to flow
for all

Did I get in the 
wrong line

Only time
will tell.

COLORS

OK I got a bit crazy tonight. I wanted to do a poem using colors and emotions. I came up with this silly poem lol

I am feeling blue
today

Because I didn’t get my 
way

Turned purple
with rage  

When I tried to engage
conversation 

With a yellow 
coward

That said I was not
in the pink

I told him I was going
to cause a brown out

In his town

So they would have a black day

If he did not say 

He was wrong.
