“Enjoy your surrounding in all serenity”
                   Lady PJ

In this moment there is peace
As the wind forcefully comes
Mesmerized by the waves
Here awaiting the beaming sun

Clouds abound, sensing rain
Even the birds are alarm
Children surprised and amazed
As the gator swims along

One child points her finger
The other jumps around
The birds are on the hunt
The gator’s gone aground
















The clouds they tell a story
The day is all but gone
The waves are in a hurry
To hit the shore, what a sound

I sit here in amazement
At all that I can see
This day I took a journey
You took this walk with me
I wish to tell an ending
No ending I can see

Life’s beautiful moments captured
One gift to you from me

The day sucks!

This day sucks…

I cried today
Somehow lost my way
Got no words to say
So I fought it
And turned away

Wiped away my tears
Longing to fight 
But lost all the will
Ditched that spear gun
Something inside me
Screamed run!

I sowed up those holes
Caught the blood
Drip... dripping
From my soul

Got deep in the rut
Too damn stubborn to give up
So I’m still here…
Now what?

Had a conversation with God
Thought that maybe he’d heard
Send me a message or a word
But all I'm seeing are birds
Maybe a whisper or a chirp?

Disillusioned, I gave up
Sounding crazy but
I’m emotionally cut
Now What?
