When I'm not with you I'm with you

When I'm not with you I'm with you.
I think that's the definition of love.
I never saw the angel coming from above.
Our paths crossed like meteor showers.
The fruit of our union is beautiful flowers.

We're like two soldiers, battle weary.
But combat tested.
And both of us bested our enemies and demons.
And now that I'm with you I forgot all the reasons.

You are my amazing miracle
That I can't wait to claim.
God really came through
When he put us together.

Babe you are my soul mate.
I never thought those words
Were more than confection.
But now I see you are my only direction.

Every part of me screams,
I'm so glad I waited.
Because now that I've found you,
I am so elated!

Thanksgiving Poem

I am thankful for the bountiful food.
I am thankful for the festive mood.
I am thankful for family and friends.
I am thankful and I make amends.

I am thankful that I have my honey.
I am thankful that she thinks I'm funny.
I am thankful that the planet is not ruined.
I am thankful that love is brewing.

I am thankful that the sky is still blue.
I am thankful for every flower that grew.
I am thankful for she who understands.
I am thankful to take her hand.

I am thankful that there is no worse threat.
But sadly we're not there yet.
There is chaos and mayhem.
Can I get an amen?










I am thankful I live in this country

 This must be the place

This must be the place.
Where it all makes sense.
This must be the place.
Where we all belong.

This must be the place.
Unaffected by dread,
This must be the place.
That we lock in to the real.

This must be the place.
Where we remember to feel.
This must be the place.
Yes there's chaos and mayhem.
But still there is a firmament.
