PEACEFUL SLUMBER IN THE FORREST OF THE MIND
Listen! How sweet sings the breeze, merrily off trees,
whispering wonderment, the ear quietly it does please,
nurturing souls, drifting to Celestial splendor,
beauty unfolds, as into peaceful slumber, coils surrender.
Castles in the sky, growing columns of inspired aspiration,
silver shadows flowing through all generations,
warm cocoons of mortality, linked by silken threads,
webs of lives where comfort embeds.
Serenely rests the head of time,
pillows puff by wisps of the sublime,
mellow moments spark a fusion sphere,
perfumed gardens alight, dancing nymphs are near.
Oh mindful forest flower, rivers many bridges cross,
branches leaved with neurons, invisible flakes of frost,
tender is the night, spirits lovingly caress,
sleep well my children, aware God will bless. M. L.
All I Want Is You
I'll tell it rather simply,
I'll say it plain and true.
A single thing is all I want,
And all I want is you.
There are no other riches,
No treasures or possessions
That ever could compare to you.
You are the very air I breathe,
The rations that sustains me.
You're all my thoughts tied up as one,
The laugh that entertains me.
You're all that life need ever give
The maximum that's due,
If I could ask for anything
I'd only ask for you.
THE BLISSFUL SILENCE
In the silence of my thoughtless mind,
I leave the pettiness of condition behind,
I feel the exaltation of God's kiss,
I truly am in a wondrous divine bliss.
In my peaceful harmony I am immersed,
floating weightless throughout the universe,
I feel the comfort of a glowing ember,
in a timeless world, an ecstasy to remember.
One on one, God as God in a field of gold,
an endless flowing stream, never feeling old,
worth more than all the treasure can bestow,
I rise up in an everlasting eternal glow.
In this state of mind, beauty is all I find,
this is the Cosmos gift for all man kind,
it's time to light the torch, don't be frightened,
in Silent Meditation, you will be enlightened.

dies 4 love...
He sits a girl apon his knee,
and tells her things he once told me,
then i go home and cry,
cuz he loves her more than i.
My dad came home to the door he broke,
he found me hanging from a rope,
he took a knife and cut me down,
and on my shirt a note was found...
It said....
Dig my grave, dig it deep,
marble stone from head to feet,
and on my grave place a dove,
to show the world i died for love.
do you hear that?
could it be love,
i walk towards the sound
to find a dove
the dove flies off,
leaving a trail
which leads away
should i bail?
i keep on going,
fast as i can
but find stains,
red, as desert sand,
I see the dove,
i watch it fall
i run towards
and i hear it call
it says..
" run away
keep your speed
dont look bad,
there is no need,
for in this life,
in this land
love is found
by no woman or man,
you can cross the sea,
you can walk the trails
but you won't find love
trust me you'll fail.
to find this love,
it's quit a goal,
ready..
its in your soal.

Eleanor Roosevelt wrote:
Many people will walk in and out of your life,
But only true friends will leave footprints in your heart.
To handle yourself, use your head;
To handle others, use your heart.
Anger is only one letter short of danger.
If someone betrays you once, it is his fault;
If he betrays you twice, it is your fault.
Great minds discuss ideas;
Average minds discuss events;
Small minds discuss people.
He who loses money, loses much;
He who loses a friend, loses much more;
He who loses faith, loses all.
Beautiful young people are accidents of nature,
But beautiful old people are works of art.
Learn from the mistakes of others.
You can't live long enough to make them all yourself.
Friends, you and me.... You brought another friend.... And then there were 3.... We started our group.... Our circle of friends....
And like that circle.... There is no beginning or end....
Yesterday is history. Tomorrow is mystery. Today is a gift.
Nevermore
my heart wrenching sobs,
no match for the pain that i feel.
is this a nightmare,
or is this for real?
you told me you loved me,
you told me you cared.
but now you've brushed away
all the memories we've shared.
i gave you my love,
i gave you my heart,
but with one swift move,
you tore it apart.
i can't understand,
how everything went so wrong,
i guess you grew tired,
of being with me so long.
you tell me you're sorry,
but a thousand apologies won't heal
the deep void that you've left
with which i must deal.
i don't know how to cope,
with this heartbreak from hell.
i guess i meant nothing,
you've moved on so well.
your version of forever,
is far different than mine.
you told me so many lies,
the entire damn time.
how could you go,
and do this to me?
best friends and ex-lovers,
nevermore we'll be.
