Thin Blue Line
A thin blue line Cuts through the middle Of tragedy and loss, They continuously strive To find peace and harmony Where despair often resides. Red lights and blue lights Flash in the dark Scared cries and raised voices Split through the night Brings out the uniformed, the many un-thanked Who venture out un-daunted into the…
Clouds of Chaos

Rising higher, blazing forth Eastern sky burning bright The Sun ascentds, his glory shines Upturned faces trace his flight. Celebrate in the Solstice Sunrise Bask in life giving light With open arms…
An Unfinished Puzzle
The Legacy passed to each generation And traditions of those gone before Bestowed at first breath the very day of your birth And is heard in the cry of the newborn. From whence did you come this old soul renewed To carry on in this new life? Your destiny will slowly unfold before you An…
The Cross Roads
The Path laid out or so it seems The road unwinds in fretful dreams The way once clear the way once sought Now clouds of doubt obscure your thoughts. Which road to take which road to follow The way well traveled or the way un-named To blaze a trail to call your own Your feet…
