Our days together

We are but the sum of all our days.
No more no less than all our experiences,
but without you I would not stand here,
complete, in love, forever.

You are my friend, my love
as our hearts met they intertwined
and now beat side by side through life together.

Even though this moment is but a blip in time,
I know that my heart is yours for eternity.

10/13/2004

As I find my words left in journals incomplete. I also find my thoughts and motions in life to be the same. All but fragments of days past without thought or vision toward the next. Pieces of a never ending puzzle yet they seem to run in a circle. Somehow connecting together to remind me that somewhere there is a purpose for what I do or what I strive to be, even though I, not knowing what that really is, continue.

Canyons of color

Time has left you to endure, you give us your beauty and peaceful grander

Your cliffs weep sweet sorrow for ancient friends.

Your red veins flow like blood from a battle.

Your portraits of stone etched in our minds forever.

Life questions-list

How does your last breath give way to your soul

How does your last heart beat end your dreams.

Is your fait set by the ideas you wake up with

Can we really choose our future among the causes in the world

Is life really a challenge if you set your own limits,
If you choose to continue or quit?

Going off the deep end , when your reaching for so much more.

How easy is it to get lost in the motions and forget ourselves and our dreams?

WHERE WOULD WE BE

Where would we be …you …and me


Without the man in his old run down truck

With his furry companion in the middle.


Without all the acquaintance’s we met along the way

Without all the souls that have touched us to create a memory
 

Without loves lost, broken hearts mended and lessons still to learn


Without or diamonds in the rough, Our children

our gifts from heaven at just the right time.


Without the journey traveled the dreams fulfilled or forgotten

And the journey yet to come.


Without the trips down the dusty road or along the river

Without the snow or rain and perfect sunshiny days.


Without all the things that we don’t see beyond our control,

that make our world, everyone’s world go around.


Without the world and everything in it

Without you, where would I be.

Faces









The faces that grow on us
change before we see the child inside fade

Before us stands another face,
A face that grows on the world

They are with us but a brief moment in time, but
They remain in our hearts, forever

Forever giving us glimpses to the past
And stretching our dreams to the future

Remaining still,
the familiar face in the crowd.

What gifts they bring to the world
Is all that we have instilled in them



May you see yourself as a gift
To be loved and cared for.

Be all you can, strive to succeed
To fulfill, your someday.

Flight

Flight
The flight of life takes off Slow and easy,
With lots to see and learn.
Then climbs to a faster pace were
we start to glide into
The gentle, comfortable middle.
When we hit that comfort zone
We start to look higher, and so we climb.
Before we know it we are over the top,
and on the easy slide down.
Take it all in and enjoy the flight,
Before you know it we are looking
at landing.
And the flight has ended all to soon.
