Things. Things are just everywhere. Not heart-felt feelings, just things. Got to buy this, got to buy that and pretty soon those “things” are off to a thrift store. Are you happy yet?

I had a little thought, it popped into my head
It wasn’t really anything, just something I had said
I said it wasn’t kind, I said it wasn’t true
I began to think, it’s neither me nor you

Just when I felt release, escape from pending dread
Reality again became the spot inside my head
You don’t know for sure, what really is the truth
The man wearing green is hiding in the booth

That’s when I decided, to my own self be true
I cannot begin to undo what others put us through
For never in our lifetime, have we felt the need to try
To determine who the liar is, as they continue to decry

There has to be some good, in learning to discern
That which is affecting us, that is our main concern
The latest news came out, it gave horrific facts
There really are evil people, hiding in their tracks

It’s hard for me to understand those incapable of love
They must not have received the gift, the gift from heaven above
It’s an elite sense of authority, they think they are better than you
Quite unable to feel the heart, the heart that is so true

Fight with me, fight with you, what a waste of time
I have an idea, I speak the thought, then I hear a chime
The chime is the reminder, that time is running short
If we intend to beat this, let’s turn it into sport

See if you can discern who really tells the truth
Look past your previous ego, become a searching sleuth
Look for documentation backed up by facts in print
Journalists have become storytellers, that is one big hint

When we reach the finish line, only then will you know
Your heart will be racing, it’s time for them to go
We deserve peace on earth, we want peace for sure
Stop listening to lying jerks, your heart with facts assure

I’m not sleeping. I’m daydreaming.
I’m seeing a vision of beauty and light, the strength from within.

“Why are you stubborn?” she easily said
“Why won’t you let me inside your head?”
Because there is no space for you
The cast is set and it remains true

Do you not wonder what can be expressed
Creativity a pocket if not repressed
It’s not for me to decide what to do
The question becomes is it really you?

I find it amusing how easy to point
To someone other than your twisted joint
You look in the mirror but never do see
The expression that’s missing, which looks at me

Again, I wonder in the dark of the night
Am I dreaming or sleeping, is it the right?
For dreams slip away from our awakened thought
Did I really dream it or is it something I sought?

I remember when, the dream of the train
Became a reality but was really a plane
The story is true and sad as I know
My heart was broken, I couldn’t go

The train was delayed, it wouldn’t arrive
When finally it came, I couldn’t derive
It was not the train it was supposed to be
The train was different, but it came for me

The very next day to the airport I went
My plane was delayed, it hadn’t been sent
The plane had a route, a detour it took
Like the train in the dream, a different look

The problem you see was the schedule of mine
Listening to the dream, I would have arrived in time
I stood and waited for a plane not to show
My father passed away, I would not get to go

The pain is still strong as I write this admission
Realizing a dream had been a premonition
Had I only believed the message so clear
The message was sent, the message sincere

And, now, to this day I listen quite closely
To my heart, my dreams, all nature mostly
Messages we get from energy it seems
Can be truths we get, interpreted from dreams

I awoke with a start. The vivid dream seemed so very real. Was it real? Did an eagle just have a conversation with me?

It’s an astonishing feeling to look out and see
The plight of the earth really begins with me
Can you feel it surround you, it may catch your eye
Make no mistake, mother earth doesn’t lie

She waits for her moment, when it will become clear
The wind just an echo for the sound that we hear
No longer a thought that makes a head spin
The natural eruption about to begin

Stay close to your heart, it will not deceive
Remember the heart is what we believe
As we look to each other for the help we will need
The love that is shared is compassionate indeed

You question my statements, you want not to know
That maybe I know something about the below
For energy works in mysterious ways
Constantly changing and inspiring our days

So, what is energy, you innocently ask
Energy moves earth, not an easy task
Check into your heart, you can hear it beat
That’s energy that moves you, even your feet

As the eagle above flies overhead
It cannot be unheard so easily said
Open your heart, let the energy ride
For our frequency generates from deep inside

As we meander through life, it isn’t without some strife

But sometimes we choose not to see it

Happiness only begins, when overlooking our sins

As sometimes we choose not to see it

I wouldn’t say yes to sad, if the choice was easily had

So sometimes we choose not to feel it

What I want to see, really begins with me

For truth is as we choose to see it

The beauty of life is quite, the time it takes so trite

Beauty is as we choose to see it

I never want to forget, the life that is mine and yet

It’s simply life as I see it
