Another thought conveys this time

From crosses burned to carefree ways
From those of earth to neon play . . .

The boy looks out on sun splashed fields
Across from which rise blue mountains,
Above which circle lazy buzzards and raptors
Amid cottony clouds painted on blue eternity.
The heat of the day . . .

To include chemo, . . .

I sang melodies alone
To the rhythm of the rain
The flowers might have heard me
For when the rain stopped falling . . .

This poem is a result of what I have seen in my neighborhood today.

The bright sun greeted my morning
With a wink and warming smile
I could smell the roasting coffee
As songbirds . . .

No presents graced holidays

The inner feelings of the soul
Where right and wrong seek approval
As answers can't be found in stone
Reason lurks in every corner
As belief just . . .

You say you can deal with my disease, my eventual confinement
You say you will always love me more than the grains of sand
Yet the band is playing . . .

Here we go. As most know, my main writing forte is poetry. It comes easy to me to make the turns of phrase. I know for some it isn't that easy so this will be a mix of things.
