Nomadic

 


Homeless 

No

The world is my home


Nomadic life

Traveling here and there

Never staying in one place to long


Meeting new faces

Exploring new places

Embracing the local culture 

Of every town I visit 

Cinnamon Rolls

 


Sang to the tune of "The Thunder Rolls" by Garth Brooks 


Cinnamon rolls

Down icing tracks

Sticky fun and tasting great

Walnuts cover it so

A tasty treat

Cinnamon rolls

Coffee

 


Coffee 

Energy 

Life

Go go juice 


Coffee 

The only way to face the day in the morning 

That little sip of pick my up

After a hatd day at work

Coffee on your lunchbreak 


Coffee  in the morning 

Coffee in the afternoon 

Coffee in the evening 

Coffee anytime

Tarnished knight

 I may not be your knight in shining armor 

But my armor is dull out of respect 

My personality shines so bright

I don't want to blind you when the light reflects

How much

 


How much pain can one heart take

Before it snaps and bleeds all over the place

How much hurt can one soul bare

Before it turns rotten from dispare 

How much can one person bare

Before they just don't care


The world breaks people down

Tearing them heart and soul

Their spirits left as rags

To be blown away by the wind 

To be thought about no more


Everyone has a breaking point

The world will push and push

When that point is reached

The world will just laugh when you break down

Dream your dreams

 


Goodnight 

Sleep tight 

Wrapped in the blanket of the night

Upon the balcony of the moon 

Your bed waits for you

A cloud for your pillow


Dream of adventure 

Dream of peace

Dream of love

May they all put you at ease


The choice is limitless 

As you sleep through the night

Dream your dreams

Until sunrise 

Red Riding Hood

 


Little Red Riding Hood

To Grandmother's house You go

To visit that kind old lady

Who lives in the forest alone


The basket of goodies

Will brighten her day

Hopefully the bad wolf

Will stay away


A beautiful day for a walk

Through the woods so fair

Birds in the trees chirping 

Here and the you see a deer


You hear water running through the stream nearby 

Fish jumping and splashing

Flowers dot the sides of the trail

Butterflies take flight


Off to Grandmother's house

She's waiting

Have a nice visit 

With that kind old lady

Trapped in a jar

 


Sometimes I feel trapped 

I don't have a choice of my own

Pulled in thousands of directions 

Yet

Still in the same place


The voices of peer pressure 

Won't leave me alone

They sound and resound in my head

Crippling me

Trapping me

Going more and more insane

Roll in roll out

 


Waves roll in

Waves roll out

Sweeping the shoreline 

Like a giant broom


The waves roll in

The waves roll out

A  constant cycle that never ends

The constant rhythm of nature 

The constant beat of the Earth

Picking flowers

 


Picking flowers

Wild and free

To yake them home

To give to thee


Picking wild flowers

Out of the field 

Picking wild flowers 

Sunflowers 

Shasta dasies

Indian paintbrushes

To name a few

Picking them all

To give to you

Headache

 


What a headache 

A thunderstorm let lose in my head

Evening stroll

 


Look a shooting star

Make a wish

My wish already came true

Because I get to share my life with you


From the day we met

I knew it would be

That our lives 

Would be intertwined eternally 


Yes we had our ups

As well as our fair share of downs

But, together we find solid ground


I don't need a wish

Mine already came true

I get to share my life with you

Sleep, slumber, dream

 


Goodnight 

The stars light up the sky

The moon shines bright

Your dreams wait to take flight


Beyond the realms where mortals sleep

A world of adventure exsit 

Your fondest wish granted


Unicorns. Elves, and Fairies gather to play

As you sleep

As you Slumber

As you dream the night away

Run Red Run

 


Run Red run

The wolf is on the prowl 

He's gonna stalk you

He's gonna chase you

Until he has you in his claws


Run Red run 

The forest is no longer safe

Go home

Stay home

Or become the wolf's bait


Run Red run

The fairytale is over

The woodsman's dead

The wolf is coming 

Run my little redhooded friend

In the woods

 


A walk in the woods

Turn into a mystery 

A glow

A light

A mysterious beam

Shines bright before me


What it is

I don't know 

Where did it come from

I don't know 


An alien portal maybe

To another world

To another universe

To another galaxy

Maybe a search light from an intergalactic spaceship far above

looking for their lost pet


Maybe it's just the moon shining through the trees

 However

It keeps the mind guessing

Good morning

 


Rise

Shine

Kick ass

Repeat 


Upon your journey 

You will meet

Many people 

Who try to drag you into defeat 


Rise

Shine

Kick ass

Repeat


The road will be rough

Life will get tough

Sometimes you won't feel like you're enough 

However 

You are loved for who you are


Rise

Shine

Kick ass

Repeat

I Write

 


I write my emotions

Spilling out onto the page

Like a mighty river

An uncontrollable force

That can not be held back

But flow


Words spill upon the page

One after another after another

Faster and more frantic I write

Words

Emotions

Life

All pouring out of me

With no stop in sight


Finally however 

After what seems an eternity 

And a single moment at the same time

I stop

My well runs dry

It seems I have nothing more to say

At the beach

 


Sitting on the beach

Watching the wave

Peaceful  easy feeling


Calm and content

With the sound of the surf

Tide in

Tide out


Just sit here and relax

Unwind 

Be at one with myself and the world around me

Meditation

 


Breathe in

Breathe out

Clear your mind of all clutter

Free your soul from all destruction 

Feel the vibe of the universe 

Vibe with it


Breathe in

Breathe out

Relax

Refocus

Let your body recharge its batteries 


Breathe in everything good in life

Breathe out everything holding you back

Nothing but a donut

 Sang to the tune of "Houndog" by Elvis 


You ain't nothing but a donut 

To be eaten all the time

You ain't nothing but a donut 

Yo be eaten all the time

Covered in glaze and Oh so very fine




Words

 


Words can heal

Words can build up

Words can give encouragement

However 

Far to often words are used

To tear down

To harm

Words that flow from our ears, to our brain, and then effect the heart


We need to watch our words

Choose them with care

Words can cause a lot of harm

If said in the wrong way

Good morning

 


Rise 

Shine

Face the challenge of the day 

Climb that mountain 

Run that race

There is no limit 

To what you can accomplish 


Even when things grow dark

Even when things grow drear 

You keep moving forward 

Until the sun shines once more


When you feel your strength is gone

When You feel you want to give up

Remember the love of family and friends 

That love will help you get going again

Star light

 


Star light

Star bright

May the dreams of many come true tonight

Loneliness sucks

I know I'm not the only one Lonely 

So I wish for all the Lonely hearts

That at some point

They may feel that spark

And be Lonely No more


Star light

Star bright

Broken hearts mend

Broken lives heal

Loneliness is temporary 

Nature walk


Take a walk in the woods

Hear the birds sing

Feel the breeze through your hair

Watch it blow through the trees

Watch a dust devil whirl up some fallen leaves


Look for animals and their tracks

Squirrels darting here and there

Deer spotted along the way

Bear tracks

Track left by big cats

Are seen as well


Waterfalls

Flowing streams

Fish jumping

Animals drinking along the edge

Beavers building a dam


Take a walk in the woods

Peaceful time spent

Get in touch with nature

You will be glad you went

Sleep

 


In the land of rainbows,

In the land of dreams

All is possible 

Only need to believe 


Your fondest wish granted

With stardust enchantment 

No nightmares allowed

Just fun and bright dreams delight


Sleep upon the balcony of the moon 

Wrap yourself within the blanket of the stars 

Rest your head Upon a pillow of cloud

Sleep until morning light

Sitting on the Dock

 


Sitting on the dock

Taking it all in

The beauty of nature

And the spirit within


Sitting on the dock

The mountains climbing high

Fish jumping in the water

As they go swimming by


Sitting on the dock

what a beautiful day

Nature at it's finest

Country Girl

 


Just a country girl 

In her long white dress

Roaming through the field

On a summer Evening


The wind blows

The dresses dances in the breeze

As the wheat flows back and forth


The setting sun

The clouds above

A sunset like no other

The Man

 


Man standing in a trench-coat and hat

A man of mystery

A man of intrigue

A man of  conspiracy


Maybe just a lonely Gent out for a walk

Maybe a spy

Maybe an agent for the FBI


The mind wonders ever more

About this lone stranger


Nothing but the best

 You hate me I can tell

You want to see me burn in Hell

That's alright for you see

I want nothing but the best for thee

Find peace

 


May your journey be light

Hope your plans are successful 

Even in life's hardness

Even in life's darkest 

Even in life's ugliest 

May you find peace

Peaceful sleep

 


Go to sleep
Rest your head
Pleasant dreams in your bed

The pillow's soft
The breeze is cool
The stars shine so bright

Blanket tight
Wrapped up right
Snug and safe from the night's harm

As I see you drifting off
Upon the bout of deep dream
I will turn 
I will leave
So you can sleep in peace

I turn off the light
Whisper goodnight
As I leave the room

Sleep till dawn
My little fawn
See you soon

Hurt

 


Angry 

Hurt

Lost

Betrayed by the one she thought she could trust

Emotional wreckage 


Good morning

 Sun comes up

The day's journey begins 

Travel that journey 

Learn all that you can


Your path today

May not always run smooth

But keep moving forward 

And the trouble you'll get through


Peace be with you

Even in the storms

Peace be with you 

Forevermore

Go to sleep

 


Wrap yourself in the blanket of the night 

Dream your dream of peace

Visit lands far and wide

While the stars twinkle in the sky


Rest your head

It's been a long day

Sleep is calling

Will you obey


Cracker Barrel

 


Out on the road and need something to eat

Cracker Barrel can't t be beat

Homemade cooking

Inside a country store setting 

You're sure to find something you like 


Not hungry

Don't want to shop

Sit in a chair out front

Play a game of Checkers

Or just talk

Get off the road and rest awhile 

He writes


Every night he is found at his desk

Writing poems after poem

He starts at sunset 

Sometimes Writing until dawn

The words of his emotions

The words of his life song


Life unfilled pours from the pen in his hand

Spilling upon the page

Like a mighty ocean tide


Little one

 


Little one oh so true

Can't help but wonder what the future holds for you

Ghosts of time

 


The ghosts of time

An ever-present force

Reminding you that nothing lasts forever 

Reminding you to live while you can

The hunt


 

America

Now divided into regions 

Or districts if you will

Once a year

Members from each district 

Is chosen to do battle to the death

Until one district remains 


The volunteers as they call us

From each district is taken 

To a secret secluded place in the middle of nowhere 

This is where we meet the other district volunteers 

The ones we will do battle against 

Then we are let loose 


For the entirety of this ordeal 

We find for yourselves

Hunting 

Fishing

Living off the land


Members from each district gets killed 

One by one They fall

One by one their names our called

This goes on for days

until only one remains

The Tomb

 


I entered the tomb

Scared of what I may find

Yet

Longing for the adventure 


Traveling into unknown territory 

Facing whatever danger comes my way

Ready to test myself to the utmost 


I have been told 

This tomb had a curse

If that's true

Bring it on

Life or doom

I'm not afraid

Pictures of the Bolivar park

 












Hamster go round

 


Sang to the tune of the Hymn "Bind us together"


There is only one hamster

There is only one cage

There is only one wheel

That is why I sing


Hamster go round and round

Hamster go round and round

Hamster go round in the wheel 


Hamster go round and round

Hamster go round and round

Hamster go round once more
