Graduate

Students ready, teachers here

Suddenly we both appear

Patience please, for both our sake

I am trying to caretake

She asks me to walk by faith

I her to communicate

Lending hand and listening ear

I can hear her loud and clear 

She sees me through facing fear

I'd abandoned my career

Thrive inside a twist of fate

Speak despite delay in rate

Love is all you need and take

Now we get to graduate

Traveling Light

I wonder what his heart looks like

A cypress tree and starry night

Like grenadine with Diet Sprite

The streamers on a child's bike

Cathedral bells and falling rice

Or ocean swells 'neath diamond kites

Like tinsel strands and traveling light?

He'll show me once he knows I'm right

The Mouse

With candy cane handcuffs, there needn't be keys 

Mistreat me this Christmas, I chew through and leave

My quips are my missiles and kisses deadly

Such insulin shock, you could drop and decease

Curled up with the kittens in mistletoe leaves

One eye on my business and cheese as I sleep

I've predators present at every degree

And ready or not, it's your thoughts I can read

So know this - I'm focused, and I will succeed 

The mouse in my house always stirring is me

God Boss

Love is my art

Heart is my home

God is my boss

Leave me alone

Jenga

Murder, mansion, mystery 

Do you know your history?

Queen of Hearts in memory 

Might I be your enemy?

Pick the candlestick and see 

Clues are in my poetry

House of cards and car of clowns

State of mind that wasn't sound

Sorry! Scrabble word not found

Back to basic starting ground

I'm in wind and when I'm round...

Jenga, all your walls come down

Show & Tell

Show & tell
Should've known

Swallowed whole

Spit up bones

Is this you 

Off your throne?

Without wings

All alone

Could've moved

Would have grown

Wouldn't you

Have rather flown?

Face your fear

Change your tone
Find your way

Phone your home

ICU (Love, God)

Whatever you may say or do

Or all you haven't gotten to

Whatever that you hurt or who

...Whether or not you meant it to

However you may think and rue

Or drug and drink into the blue

Whatever harm that then ensues 

(Although in time it's your turn, true)

Whatever you've been in or through...

You never change how I see you
