It’s funny when you remember
Mistakes that you have made
Moments with your past loved ones
As time moves on they usually fade
But sometimes in a dream
The mind will reflect
Reviewing the old memories
You now seem to neglect
Awaking to what is here and now
Can benefit you greatly
Being mindful in the present
We can extinguish “What have you done for me lately?”

I embrace the joy
When I see the things line up in place
Time spent together
Sharing the world as I look upon your face
Knowing there is no expectation
Knowing only these feelings that stand
Part of the uncertainty
Is built into the hand
I don’t rely on criticisms
They only detract from the moment
One can spend a lifetime
To that which is unspoken
That which is meaningful
Is better when it is said
Never leave the heart unopened
Never leave it only in your head
Life is too precious
Rejoice in what life can offer
Too many of us never act
We leave it in an unused coffer

I have my flaws
I somehow understand yours
I look beyond the surface
I’m in the club of empathetic entrepreneurs
Is this my curse?
Not choosing well with whom I may fall?
We’ve crossed this line before
Look at that, oh what a squall
Despite what should be my better sense
I forgive and move on
Still I want to fill my heart
Wanting you by my side in the dawn
I’m asking the questions
That makes me look at my reality
What do I posit?
What makes me an enlistee?
I understand my vulnerability
I understand my strong features
I may not make the right play
But I’m certain I won’t be on the bleachers
There is something more I see
Than you are willing to let on
This is why I wait
This is why I fawn
Part of me knows this as fact
Part of me knows this dance
What will become of this?
My temptress of circumstance

The universe is mysterious
Connecting to messages we send and receive
Responding to what is positive
Or that to which we grieve
Somebody living in Boise
Relates to someone in San Diego
Somehow a connection through the ether
Slips out of the shadow
I know you’ve experienced loss
But in loss we can also find our way
There is a purpose in our healing
Pain is a teacher but it does not have to stay
Even 953 miles
Does not seem far away
Something I can’t really explain
So my poetry is my X-Ray

dedicated to Julie Roberson
Thanks Jules
I have a surprise
I would like to share
For a few hours in the day
Outside in the fresh air
You told me once
Something you’ve never done
Not as a child
Or with your daughters and your son
I want to invite you
For you and I to take a ride
Out by the boardwalk
Out by the seaside
Wind in our hair
Tandem bicycle built for two
You’re with me
And I’m with you
It brings me joy
If I can put a smile on your face
It is your happiness
That I’d like to embrace
So come with me
And enjoy the ride
Something to remember me by
Along the ocean tide

I’ve contemplated my behavior
Always wanting to be on the right side of my wrongs
But this focus will also shed
Much of the error within others and where it belongs
We can only control what is in our power
We must forgive others the folly of their deceit
Exoneration is not for the sole sake of relieving guilt
But for the sake of the soul we do not want to deplete
(My reason to forgive)

I wasn’t looking
But then you came upon me
I didn’t expect what would happen
Somehow my heart is now full of glee
Maybe I was receptive?
Maybe I was under a spell?
But unlike anyone before
It was only you that I fell
You the Sagittarius
Shot me with Cupid’s arrow
The Archer and the Crab
What-do-ya-know?
I don’t think I’m crazy
What’s a poor boy to do?
I found love
I found it with you
I care deeply
Listen to what the heart will say
Having you in my life
I know now God has listened to me pray
I want only to make you happy
I’ll work hard to show you everyday
The passion we bring to each other
The passion that won’t fade away

I write to tell of my feelings
I write to try and understand
Sometimes we need to hear ourselves
Not listening to what’s in the hinterland
I wasn’t sure if I was going to make it
The world changed in the dark gloom
I was alone but I still fought for a life
I kept my faith, I didn’t presume
Taken by surprise
You brought my life vitality
Something I did not expect
But I was attracted to your personality
I was receptive
I wanted to strive
Because of you
I wanted to thrive
I seem to think that your story
Just might be similar to mine
You didn’t know what to think of me
But somehow we connected
Over these months that we have spend time
The many wonders of the universe
We have much to figure out
I have never been more certain
With the girl from Los Reyes Michoacan De Ocampo I am devout

I am a richer man
with every new day
you are a part of me
and this is what I say
my words are honest
my actions are even more true
I give you my heart
It is so easy for me to love you
I am blessed when you are near
I am blessed when we are together
I will earn your affection
In fair or foul weather
I seek to learn
I seek to grow
With you in my life
I love my girl from Mexico

I wanna be the man who makes your heart scream
