Loves Return!

Loves Return

Can love break the chains,

The chains that bind you?

Taken from the soul of time,

Long asleep in bosom of the heart,

Torn from an all encompassing mind,

Lifted from the cares of life,

Seeking in the darkest recesses of inner being,

The all-important breath of life.

Yes love can set you free!

An old love returned to break the chains...

The Chains that bind you!

The Trees of Winter

Nichols Pond

The Trees of Winter

The trees devoid of leaves,

Stand like stark sticks.

Lost is their flush of color,

They sleep in winter’s bedroom,

Waiting to be awakened,

By Mother Nature

With her clock called spring!

Words

Words

Words are such a sacred thing

To poets, priests, and sovereign kings

Of Romance born to man and wife

That later cause domestic strife

To children fall the pain and woe

As they listen to words in anger thrown

To cease the pain they run and hide

They cry with no one by their side

If loves sweet words are thrown so light

Allowed to fester in the night

The child will see through vacant eyes

A world that has proved love a lie
