To My Mom...
Let me count the ways you make me smile.
The way you brush my bangs with your fingertips....
My heart so fond of you, don't leave me in ruins.
Cradle my head when I am tired and weak.
Bless me every time I awake, and go to sleep.
Emah, I love you!
(Emah in Hebrew means Mom in English)

Appearance versus soul
You can change your hairstyle, add some color,
Put on some highlights to hide away the gray.
You can emulate your heroes when looks kill to be noticed.
But rest assured there is no accounting for the real thing.
There is style and humility for someone feeling undervalued.
Don't waste away in someone else's dreams, someone else's persona.
Shame to plague your life on what someone else has.
You have to find yourself and find interests that are your own.
Brave the storm of past mistakes and current ridicule.
No one has your special qualities that you've forgotten.
Give yourself the energy boost to honor the happiness so richly deserved.

Talent precedes us
Pictures give insight to the artist's vision, creation, and truth.
The binding of the book so intrinsic in its material and style.
Abstract visions of the world identifying strong personalities through architecture and color.
Beautiful cityscape only in my dreams of experiencing.
Rays of color burst off the mural of a famous painter.
Lets not be ungrateful for the talent that has lived before us.

A new light
A new light that shine bright as the glowing sunlight.
Everyone is changing in their own moment and time.
Let's dance the reign of joy.
Recapture the lost soul within.
Heed the advice of your closest following it through.
Nurture the experience and claim your destiny.
Ward off the unkind, the damaged, and furious.
Negativity be gone, a new light to fight.

Reign of sunshine
I reign in the sunshine out from the birth of the day
Illuminating and creating memorizing the bay
I do not fade at sunset
I do not wither in the night
Dare you blow the candle out
I still want to flicker when its so dark
Illuminating and creating memorizing the bay
I do not fade at sunset

fearful darkness
Night!
I got home before the downpour.
Hours later I got a fearful fright.
Thunder rapes the sky with volatile
Blinding flashes of lighting through my window.
Alone in the apartment, I build a cocoon in bed with blankets.
The cold rips through me so much so I cannot sleep.
Cannot wait until morning for the retched storm to disappear.
Streetlights blocked by carport roofs, the only light is my soft sounded TV.
Echos of 50mph winds crash against my bedroom window.
Not the safest place to be 2ft from the window.
The cycle comes again, I feel it is coming.
I shudder in fear, damn me being alone.
Newscaster reports tornado watch and deets of what to do.
Remarked a tool to help follow the storm patterns.
Count the number of seconds between lightning and thunder, divide value by 5,
this calculates the miles of distance between me and the storm.
Paralyzed from my first tornado and no shelter to go, I pray for the light of day.
My heart races its purpose, tired eyes close and re-open quickly.
Fingernails bitten near to the core.
Frightful to see what comes next.
I breath and release tension and follow the steps.
The sounds diminish and before I calculate its evident the
havoc reaps another unsuspecting area, but I am safe tonight.
Hug my pillow in relief.
Dream a little dream on the beach on the San Francisco coast.
Easy slumber, now I am safe, well aware of my lucky fate.

too tired to function
My eyes are getting weary
My back I getting tight
My fingers and hand are cramping
My mind is growing dull
All my energy and focus into you, computer.
Oh why, oh why, do I suffer like I do?
To come home to emptiness.
A box of stale pizza and beer.
Traffic irks me in the most fantastic way.
And the bank teller lady yaps like I friggin' have all day.
Strange to see that I am me, carrying the weight of others.
Do my duties and wait the satisfaction, tick tock goes the clock.
Rolodex of fish to bait for leads, a task that's worse than drilling teeth.
I ache all over and steal a few moments in the boss's ergonomic chair. Got a call from boss with ten more requests and the time clock strikes 5pm.
Any shred of hope to end this retched day, drives me further into a cocoon of disappointment.
Can I sleep right here and waste away in my dreams?
Back to my desk, Red Bull in hand, pop the can open, splatters in my face.
Fizz tingles against my redden cheeks and closed eyelids.
Quick reaction thankfully leaves me with sight.
Crack my knuckles with no satisfying relief.
Sighs, the work week surely isn't close to end.
Slumber feels like light years away.
Gripping to stay alert a few more hours.
But as my eyelids close, the images of darkness and faint colors appear.
I am faced with an embarrassing poke.
In all my life this never would be true.
But yes I painfully kid you not.
Dismissed for the day before I can say 'Hey, I boss I am so sorry'.
'Power down, we got this, charge up for the next phase.'
Shocked by the attitude, I took my time and my internal battery got charged.
My back I getting tight
My fingers and hand are cramping

Eyes
My eyes see the world in many perspectives.
My eyes see the truth you are blinded to know.
My eyes express beauty in those who don't believe that beauty is only skin-deep.
My eyes see the wonder, the destruction, and the solace.
Tainted Marriage
He tainted her with his deception, lies, and forcefulness.
Unknown at the time he claimed to love her but was not true to her, monogamously.
He was wrong to be unfaithful and desert their vows.
Now destroyed beyond recognition as the “incidents” occurred more than once; now ends in divorce.

Wisdom on the First Day of School
A daughter of 5 yrs old standing at the front door in a raincoat, pants, and a sweater waiting to exit for the school bus on her very first day of school.
The mom wants to give some encouraging words to her youngest on this big adventure day; the first day of kindergarten.
She gives her daughter a hug and says: “Go to school and treat your days there as if it were your job.” Hugs her again unwilling to let go. She continues; “Be true to yourself and don't let anyone change that. Work hard and you will succeed at anything and everything you do. You probably do not understand my words. But mommy knows best. So listen to her.”
Their tight embrace is released and the daughter runs off to the bus after seeing the neighborhood kids climb onboard the bus. The daughter looks back through the window and smiles.

WHITE KNIGHT
Have a lost myself in the upheaval of my life?
What is my great escape?
I hold on waiting for something good to come to me.
Unknown to me of what or how.
My desires are surfacing in the air you breathe.
You know what I want, what I need.
So please, White Knight...
I bow my head and pray dearly, for my white knight.

Writing is my Strength
Writing is my strength and although it has been a hobby all my life,
it is the most stable thing in my life and it gives me great pleasure to do so.
My biggest failure in my life, is my passion for procrastination and never
accomplishing the simplest tasks that are made with love.
The errors of my ways are not unique to me and this is why
I am reaching out to my readers to find ways to get out of what comes “too naturally”.
Just because something comes easily in life,
doesn't justify not doing it all or waiting until a better mood strikes.

Believe in me
believe in me as i see you.
faith that together we will grow.
grow together and not far apart.
our lives collided in the most pure way.
you saved me from myself.
so many frightening episodes that could have led us astray.
the gravity of lifes ins and outsides bonded us together.
bended knee you ask me to marry you.
but with our hearts together there is breakage in our hope.
can we love even when our bodies dictate love for another
will the strength and bond weve shared for years last us until the end of time
how will our futures spell out for individual happiness
vow not be scared or fearful of the many impossiblities.
vow to love, honor and trust to the best we can give to each other.
doubts will rise, and stages of life might not be all too fruitful.
know that no matter what is faced we will surely know that its temp. and can overcome it.
challenges satifies the changes in life that will validate our choices, and love for one another.
