Our hearts
Beat in link
With laughter.

At night
Knees scraping along the carpet

Death
I watch my childhood vanish in to the distance.
A lost plan. An image. A shadow.
Pa-Pa.
You were so big.
You filled my rooms.
You laughed out loud.

Good Morning
I'm alive! Oh so alive!
I'm in a world where people walk in a trance
A state of unawareness, fragile consciousness
You only get one shot, you only get one chance.
I shall advance in this worldly dance
Don't have time to fear anything
for what ever this world brings

The Wonder of Your Color
Black!
In your blackness is a world of images
from the past, present and future.
White genealogist routinely fine ancestry links
Very few people can say they are a pure breed.

In the Middle of You
I find myself being drawn to you.
Looking at the years and feeling so siren
I like being here with you.
It is peaceful; it is comfortable; I never want to leave.
I am taken away to another place

Be Eagel Minded
As a eagle stirreth up her nest, flutterith over her young, spreadeth abroad her wings, take them, bear them on her wings.
The Flutter of Wings.
Could it be God asks us to wait and allows us to experience trials
because He is trying to teach us to fly: As eagle saints, the flutter
of God's wings makes us think sometimes that He is going to beat us to
death. But the Bibles says: Hebrews 12:6-8
For whom the Lord loveth he chasteneth,… Continue

A New World View © 2010
running into you
stirred up memories of a prevalent time
when innocence saturated a child like mind
once blind to a world with invisible rules
of social classes and pigmented hues

infinite love overshadowed by clouds of hate
a history that was, is...has the stigma passed
Today I see reflections of me in a mirrored glass
It's a different day, a different time

Thank You Friends
I sit walled by a sea of intellectuals from land to land
I am marveled by the views that are stroked with a pen
It is a sheer pleasure to be in this forum and meet one and all

Mr. Coffee
Coffee, dark or light with cream
Coffee flavors that are in between
Awakes me with his strong scent
Capturing my body and awakes me from my tent
My coffee is warm and hot
A sensual crave
I love how it makes me feel
After my morning bath
I take one sip, two or three
