Family Name

To carry on your family name is to be one in one and all the same
the love the life the living it's true
to love your family there you will be true
it's patience it's honor
it's a history of time
christmas, easter, summer
walkling on the beach
riding on the tractor
feeding kittens
and threshing wheat
all of these memories cloud my mind
now I have nothing to hide,
you were strong you were able,
you taught me,
to shoot, to plant, to swear, to work, to grow
if you never were I would not be,
I love you and I miss you Grandfather,
but youll always be Grandpa to me!

Travel

My Feet
My Hands
my bare body on the ocean floor
what comes up
must come down
my spirit lies intact
can you dream
can you imagine
to sit amongst the rocks and trees
and be there and now
a happy place
a calm place
your emotion controls the day
I am locked in my secret world
and I have left the real world at bay

Lime light

Over the wall into the Chelsea Gardens
my legs thud as they land on the moist grass
the air is fragrant and musky
plants of all types loom ahead above and around
flowers with their buds and blossoms closed for fear of the night air
leaves curled at the brisk weather
I am soon covered in ivy
my feet become roots my legs and torso a trunk
my arms and head become branches blowing in the cool cool night breeze
I am home in my make believe world
live with me now
