sometimes I wish
I were a madman
sometimes I wish
I drowned at sea
sometimes I wish
I were a holy man
sometimes I wish
I were not me

sometimes I wish
for no tomorrow
sometimes I wish
for only yesterday
sometimes I wish
for pain and sorrow
sometimes I wish
my wish away

sometimes I wish
she never kissed me
sometimes I wish
she never played
sometimes I wish
for bigger fishes
somehow I wished
our love away

Sorry I haven't been around at all. I've been crippled by writer's block which has thrust me into a pit of despair I cannot escape. Please forgive me for not keeping up with what everyone else has written.

I wrote this a while ago, one of the few poems I've written in the last few months.

Empty, devoid of creativity
my Muses have abandoned me
leaving a great sucking void
that robs me of vitality.
Frantically digging around inside
searching for something
anything poetic, a flair of brilliance

Operation Gratitude has agreed to place a copy of "To The American Soldier" in each of their care packages they send out. We are getting closer to our goal of having this book in the hands of all of our service members. The book will be ready for publication by the end of the week. When I get the final word I will place a link to the e-store where you can purchase this great tribute to our military. Remember, for every book bought, a book will be sent out to a service member.

If you would like… Continue

Each day that I awake in this jointly self made heaven,
I wonder how far I could be driven.
Telltale visions begin to open wide,
To the deep heart feelings I hold inside.

Two weeks, a month, and then a year,
Erythematic feelings continually begin to appear.
I love you very strongly as you know.
So just how far can our love stories grow?

Often I think within myself,
Just how long can we share this wealth?
Simply going to the store awakens our desire,
To put another log onto our raging fire.… Continue

Of all the places I have been.
Of all the worlds wonders that I have seen.
Even the flowers of Holland would never be.
Nothing in the universe could match your love for me.

The sun rises then goes away,
But your love grows stronger every day.
This is shown in your exuberance and faith,
We celebrate an absence of hate.

Giving your love to only me to absorb in my being,
Love, lust and devotion are the true feelings.
Playing with emotions is not our game,
To us earth is only a name.

Wanting unin… Continue

No sorry I do not follow,
“Surely you must?
Surely you should have heard?”
No I’m sorry but that is just not true.

God,
You say so little,
Yet you speak so much!
Chitter, chatter, chatter, chatter, chatter,
Fool!
For once I shall beg –
Sit there, say nothing.
That’s right sitting pretty!
“Silently?”
Good God, yes!
I shall read my sports page-
You can look antique.

...........

I have heard nothing,
I shall always know nothing,
I shall remain the fool.

Little pictures,
Distant memories,
Of who I once was,
And who I wanted to be.

Ambition was something,
Of course I once had.
I had goals and plans,
Things I wanted so bad.

It's funny how life,
Doesn't always agree.
And what you want,
Isn't what Life intends you to be.

Things change,
Fate takes hold,
And figh… Continue
