"The Flow of Music" Musical Poem

Beat of the drums. 
The fast pace movement.
Looking into the eyes
of the people who knew 
how to do it.
Some of them are fast,
some of them are slow,
but it is very obvious
on which way their 
feet go. Bouncing around
the room to a certain 
rhythm in the air, some people 
don't understand 
but still know its there.
A word called 
music, in the ears of many
can be very strong.
Boogy to your beat where 
you can't go wrong.

Grandma Love - "A Life Well Lived" Poem

Why have you always loved me?
Is it because you are my grandma?
Why have you always cared for me?
Is it because you are my grandma?
Why have you never let anything bad happen to me?
Is it because you are my grandma?
Why have you always done everything to make sure I'm happy?
Your so special in your own way,
In and out.
But now your getting older
And even when your gone,
you'll still be honored in my life.

Without your Love - "A Love" Poem

How would I live without your love?
Without your bright smile?
Without the feel of the waves in your hair?
Everyday of my life.
Without waking up in the morning and not seeing your face?
Without having just you.
Could I just have one last kiss.....
 before you leave. 

 

When I think of Florida - "Trips" Poem

Beautiful Florida;
Bright sun, bright bright sun!
Shining on the beach, making the water glisten.

Light breezes blowing in and out.
Palm trees swaying side to side.

Smokin hot temperatures
Feet all in the flaming hot sand
Lots of swimming and sand castles.
Family, friends and food.
Shopping
It's always fun when your having too much fun!
But at the same time, my visit goes by really fast and I never wanna leave.

Which way? - "Failing" Poem

Which way are you going to take

Wandering what happened to my life
What turn did I not take.
What choice did I not make.
How did I get stuck alone?
Was it the drugs.
Was it the alcohol.
Why me God?
Why me. 

Sunrise: A Day in Life Poem

5 am.

Dreaming,  wrapped up in the covers, feeling so warm and every problem just seems to float away.

6 am.                                                                                                                                                       

A little soft voice yelling "Rise and Shine, time for school."

What happened to the short break we have each week?

...................... 

Ah, it went so fast. All the problems I had the night before seem to creep back up to me.

Just a look out the window, 

 Its still dark and I have to get up, just to be on time for my bus.  

No matter how much I dread it, there's no choice.

Its always the same routine just sometimes mixed up in different orders.                               

 Put clothes on, brush my teeth, wash my face, do my hair and there's just a little time to

glance in the mirror before my day actually begins.  

Then the last words I say to my family is “Bye"

When I'm on my way to the bus stop

And it still leaves me wondering everyday,  will that be the last time I see my family?
