The choice

 

How do I make you see
how much I live you
How do I make you see
how much I care

I can't
I can only reveal to you
What is in my heart
You must make the choice from there
I can't make it for you

My heart beats with the love I have for you
Every second
Every minute
Every hour
You are on my mind and thoughts

The rythm of my life is set to you
When I wake in the morning
When I go through my day
When I go to bed at night
You are there
Always at the front of my mind

Never to be lost
Never to be lost

I have laid out my heart to you.
I have laid out my soul
The choice is now yours
To be mine
Or to let me go

That choice is yours to make
I can't make it for you

Traveler

 

I am a traveler of the world
A drifter
Aimless wonderer
Homeless
I have been called all these
I have also been called much worse

I am not homeless
The world is my home
I travel from town to town
Helping out where I can
Taking odd jobs

Some people stay away
Keeping their distance  from me
But
I make friends everywhere I go

I always have a story to tell
Stories about my journey
Sometimes I thrill people with stories about
Magical lands
Science fiction
Or whatever type of tell they wish to hear

When my time is up
And my work done in that town
I pack up and move on

Onward to another adventure
Onward to where I am needed

Truly
I am not homeless
The world is my home

Daydream

 

While taking a nap yesterday afternoon.   I had a day dream.   I had just finished fixing lunch ( a simple ham sandwich and chips)  when the crew from Food Network's "Dinners, Drive-ins, and Dives" bursts through my front door and sets up their cameras.  Guy walks up to me and we start talking about my lunch.  After a few minutes Guy picks up my lunch ( plate and all) and leaves my house.  The camera crew packs up and leaves as well.  I am left standing at the table with no lunch and the only thought in my mind is " What the hell was that?"

Dream

 I had a dream last night.   I was on the Food Network show "Chopped" but instead of food in the baskets.   There were phrases, and words.  Each contestant was then given 30 minutes to write a poem using what they found in their baskets.   After 30 minutes each contestant presented what they wrote.   One would be eliminated.   This would go on until their would be just one contestant left.  Thus making them the winner.

I am patriotic

 I am patriotic 

But I won't throw it in your face

Demanding you believe what I believe 

Waving my small American flag

Shouting at the top of my voice 

Denouncing everyone who disagrees with me

I am patriotic 

I respect all people 

All nationalities 

All opinions 

I am patriotic 

But I realize there is more to this country than just Americans

Everyone nation with ideas 

Every people with unique flavors and styles 

Yes, I am patriotic 

May dad

Both my Grandfathers 

Several uncles, and cousins 

Have all served in the military 

Some still serving

I stand with them as I always have

As I always will

Yes, I am Patriotic 

But this country is very diverse 

I respect everyone

Prayer

 

Lord

All praise to you I give

For this life

You have given me

Jesus My Lord

 

I'm gonna praise you

I'm gonna sing

I'm gonna lift up your holy name

You have saved me

From death and the grave

Jesus my Lord
