I am not smart
I am not fast
I am not best
At where I'm at
But I will trust
As well I must
In God Who watches
Over all of us.

To Love and Shine in The Eye of Life - with audio
audio link
That despair and fear across the land
Between me and thee I would certainly extinguish
But my roar is like a baby’s cry
And my power to save,
Like the lame man in front of the temple
That animation may God speak
Get up and walk my loved one,
Get up and walk
O carry the young and old in Thy bosom
Now and eternally
On the face of the earth
And in the eyes searching
There are tears stored up for a day
When many a heart shall say
Goodbye for now beloved of mine
While mouthing words both divine
And also guttural passions
Against and with the hand that fashions
The vineyard’s cluster of grapes
Under the embrace of the sun
As we drink the nectar of flowers
And sit tasting the honeycomb
Upon a blanket spread about with cornucopia
Even there one may stumble and not endure
A bridge that may not be passed over
The end of which finds the soul of man
That speck of sand
Upon the mighty torrent of something deep
In the silence and shades of specters
To rise again or not,
Once more to love and shine in the eye of life
That despair and fear across the land
Between me and thee I would certainly extinguish
But my roar is like a baby’s cry
And my power to save,
Like the lame man in front of the temple
That animation may God speak
Get up and walk my loved one,
Get up and walk
O carry the young and old in Thy bosom
Now and eternally
On the face of the earth
And in the eyes searching
There are tears stored up for a day
When many a heart shall say
Goodbye for now beloved of mine
While mouthing words both divine
And also guttural passions
Against and with the hand that fashions
The vineyard’s cluster of grapes
Under the embrace of the sun
As we drink the nectar of flowers
And sit tasting the honeycomb
Upon a blanket spread about with cornucopia
Even there one may stumble and not endure
A bridge that may not be passed over
The end of which finds the soul of man
That speck of sand
Upon the mighty torrent of something deep
In the silence and shades of specters
To rise again or not,
Once more to love and shine in the eye of life
The Poet's Voice Is Reborn - with audio
audio link
The verses do not speak
When the sun is dull and weak
Words have nothing to say
When the sky is cold and gray
The intellect flees again
Eyes overflow their dam
Swirling current in the belly
Heart pumping willi nilli
Calm rolls in after the storm
The poet's voice is reborn
The verses do not speak
When the sun is dull and weak
Words have nothing to say
When the sky is cold and gray
The intellect flees again
Eyes overflow their dam
Swirling current in the belly
Heart pumping willi nilli
Calm rolls in after the storm
The poet's voice is reborn

How Love Begins - with audio
audio link
A girl and I went diving under the clear blue sky
On a pond, set round by fields, of barley, wheat and rye
She found there a family of ducklings, their little feet paddling
While tiny toads hopped across our path, brown, slow and dawdling
Gulls and hawks flew overhead and scurried away the lizards
Children’s voices in the hills nearby were like the chirping of songbirds
Beetles crept with each step under vineyards high above
The girl took my hand and smiled at me as we walked along in love
The blossoms of many a sage were orange, and white and purple
We held each other closely exchanging words and kisses special
Petals blue, yellow, and pink with the spicy scent of wild things
As we gazed into each other’s eyes reminded of how love begins.
