Behind That Smile
Those beautiful smiles
Sometimes have cried the most tears
Charitable hearts

Mother
Every heartbeat is bestowed upon,
Compassion embraces a child eternally
That uplifts a child’s soul in isolation in every way.

Mountain Climbing
I’m climbing
Above the canyon…the sun
Hits the rocks
I ascend
As I take risk after risk
UP I GO!
I’m climbing
I rely on my own strength
I’m doing FINE!
I descend
While I urgently hold on
For dear life…

Wasted
poured the wine.
These two cups
intertwined.
Eye on eye,
face to face
...lips by lips,
hips by hips.
Hot and wet.
Rocked the bed.
Cold and bare
sweet lovin'
filled the air.
Only chance
made it right,
single glance.
Twisted and turned.
One night stand,
no return.

Thorns and weeds
