When time is running out...

If I could live out
but one dream
before I die
my life would have been
worthwhile...

All the trials and tribulations
choices made for me
regrets I had a few...

No matter what the path
in which I aimed
a greater power
steered me
other plans were made...

So now I'm here
with none of my dreams
proclaimed
Some of which
are now in vain...

The worries
never ending...
no time to fantasies
If not on this plane
I shall upon another
beyond what I can see.

You changed...

I listen to the silent sounds
around me gathering
momentum...

Signs portraying
indelible verses
once promised
forbidden of character...

Has the love not gone
though clearly damaged
the reality of no one changing

Believing in the spoken words
my soul has yearned...
and my heart proclaimed

As quiet as a flowing breeze
once upon a dying breed...
I cast my caution
into the wind
only to reel it back in

Warning Signs

Do you know your inner self?
When your gut is telling you
somethings not right...
the tightness just won't go away

The intuition if you will
that most of us ignore...

Seldom do I judge it wrong
It guides me as a warning strong
sometimes it remains knotted
inside my throat...at other times
my stomach aches..

At times I would prefer
just not to know...
perhaps I'm hungry and nothing more
when access to approaching news
reveals itself slowly due

I apologize....

It's that time again..
we are slowly starting to anticipate Spring
and the shedding of winter armor.
I have to admit here, I have had a
slow start to this year.
It feels as though I've been moving
at the speed of lightening everyday,
but I seem to not be accomplishing much.

Yes, my blog has been suffering for it.
What else is new right...the truth is I
miss my blog. I miss my friends.
I haven't even been able to visit them on
their sites. My content has been sucking...

Okay, there's only so much truth that can
come out at once. (lol)...

You know me, I always bounce back!
I will make up for this lack of 'WOW FACTOR'
that's been missing. In the ole days, I used to just throw
a party and invite all my friends..
Have a beer ready at the door and a meek smile
to greet them in.
Then we were all back on the same page!
How easy it was then...
I know I have my work cut out for me here...

With all this new technology going around, one would
think I'd be able to offer that beer right through
the screen as you logged onto my site...it's probably out there,
I just haven't caught up yet I suppose...
Until then, here's a cold one! sit back relax and I'll be back!

The promise of change...

I believe in change
no matter how scared it may be
the final outcome is usually for the best

And when it feels like it is not
It is usually meant
to be proven with time

When you look back to see
just where you would have been
had change not taken place

I believe that change improves our lives
and without change
we remain stagnant
unaware of the cycle ceasing to turn

When you hit that wall
that brings us down
screaming for change
has already begun...

Tunnel Vision

Sometimes the ticking of the talk
erases clarity throughout
my thoughts...

Confused and dazed
I shuffle about
managing tasks of
mindless aims...

Sometimes the ticking of the talk
reminds me there's a lesson taught
focus on the task at hand
forget about the chattering plans

Sometimes when there is plenty
to say
controlling your steps
are the course you should pave.

Burrrrr.....

I'm sitting here freezing....
thinking of Spring
basking in the heat of
the sunshine
planting my flowers

So close, yet so far away
as I am chilled to the bone
contemplating another heat source
while I type away...

Part of me is glad
that I need time to sort my way...
close out the Old Year
before the New takes it's claim!

There's an Island
calling out my name...
changing residence
might be my new campaign.

When Time Runs Out..

I think of all the times
I knew...
that what you chose
to tell me
wasn't true...

I couldn't face
that my heart was
compromised...
Better to know the Truth
that breaks us apart
than the lies that bond us...

I think of all the times
I knew...
that emptiness
that I'd been screwed...

How hard it was
to watch the smile
that plastered your face
with untold grace

I think of the time
I shut the door
and walked away
I knew this scorn
would resemble
my everyday...

A different point of view....

I can see beyond the squint
of my eyes
thinly focusing
upon the images before me

Preventing my sight
of clarity
skims across a veil of film

I cannot speak
I don't know how...

When I was inbound
I was big with just me...
Now all around me
giants prevail
and their poking at me

When out of the blue
I screamed out loud!
someone has slapped me
from the bottom of my crown...

Congratulations!
you have a son...
and into my mothers arms
they placed me...

Unrecognizable, but certainly undeniable

I have seen
the passing of flowers bloomed
I have seen
recurring seasons change its' tune...
I have seen
my friends of times gone by...
I often wonder where am I...

When I look in the mirror
I see my face
it certainly got misplaced...
it appears to resemble
someone else
I can't remember
I've lost the trace...

I value the time
I live today...
for each is a passing day
at speeds that seem
to accelerate
I record it all along the way...

It seems disruptive
although I'll say...
all this time
I thought I could play...
and now...I can only pray.

I have Become....

I have exceeded
my estimated well laid out plans
without thought of 'added'
activity behind the scenes
of an offshore land...

Waiting and waiting
not by my command
has threatened my threshold
of patience and unmasked
demands...

It's only the beginning
preparing for calamity
breaking down my doors
seems mildly
unconscionable...

For I have
executed
down to the moment
when I take them off guard
how well I perceived
and made bread from their crumbs...

They're Back! I'm Back! hope your Back!

Hi my friends!

Whew! it has been a long journey...
I have been out in search of my 'Little Friends"
the fish left my blog awhile ago for a second time,
and I just had to find them!

Time has flown by already into this
New Year..I didn't realize that I was gone for
so long.
They're not easy to catch these little guys...

But I'm back! and so are my little friends!
Thanks goes out to the people, and you know
who you are that rescued them yet again!

Everyone has become so attached to them.

Well, New Year and the race begins!
So much to do in so little time...
I just 'Do' right now, I can't even 'think straight'
But it will come together my friends..
It's always a challenge, keeps the blood flowing!
The first couple of weeks is always crazy for
everyone.
I'll be back!

Happy New Year

Hi my friends!

We will be counting down soon
to the New Year...2010

I would like to take a moment to thank
my blogging friends for their patronage
to "Visions" in 2009 and for some before...
You have enlightened me with your
dedication and contributions to my site,
which I now like to refer to as "Our" site.
Without you, there wouldn't be a site worth
mentioning!
You make it feel like my home away from home.
Your all so special in your own ways. Even
if you never leave behind comments to
announce yourselves, I know your there...

I look forward to getting to know a lot of you better
this New Coming Year. I hope that I can meet your
standards of delivery with my poetry. You keep that
part of me alive with a sense of purpose.
I wish for all of you the Best New Year Ever!
May we all succeed to our highest expectations!
And fail just a little to keep us well balance and
aware of our accomplishments...

Happy Holidays My Friends!

Hello Everyone!

Just wanted to wish everyone a
Happy Holiday Season!
As always, I hope that you all have a
warm place to go and friends and
family to share it with.

For those of you who have no one,
please remember there is someone
out there somewhere who is thinking
of you. They may not know you personally
but their wishes for a warm and safe
Holiday are with you. It is a very difficult
time for a lot of us, for many reasons.

Let's not forget the spirit of Christmas
for those who celebrate it, or for any other
Holiday others may celebrate at this
time of year. Don't get all lost in the hustle
and bustle of things. The gift buying etc.
Stress can be yours and others worse enemy.
And for what? time still goes by, it stands still
for no one right? a new day will take place of
this one and the next...

So remember my friends out there...
we all wish we had more, and some just wish
they had some, but we all share a common
thread, we wish everyone a healthy life
instead!

My thoughts are with all of you!
Wishing you a very Merry Christmas and
Happy Holidays to all!
