life goes on

I've seen many tribulations in my short life,

      however, I've learned a great good deal, 

that no matter the pain we endure- or any strife, 

           whether love is scarce or rather rife, 

if we allow ourselves time we will heal.


I know that life is long and our time is fleeting,

        but our goal is not the mournful grave,

life will continue as our mighty hearts keep beating,

    we can live through our accomplished dreaming,

and our hearts will beat the same.

Along the shore

I. The water stood as still as tiles, The tide was scarce and shallow, Along this shore I've walked for miles, A youth of 24 and callow- Hallow was the skies above, The seagulls wailed in the sunshine, Hallow was the ground below, To allow my feet to untwine. My heart was striken by scours, My mind was a blank sheet of parchment, Along this shore I've walked for hours, but to me it was more like marching- Marking the coast with footsteps; Breadcrumbs of a lost poet, Marking the shores with memories, of a man without a motive.. The tide crept up to my amaze, The gulls cawed in my despair, Along this shore I've walked for days, and the ocean breeze danced in my hair. "Spare me, Lord, I beseech you!" I screamed to the hallow skies, "Spare me, Lord, I impeach you" No answer to my demise. II. The waves started to crash at my feet, The sky was a torrent of darkness, Along this shore I've walked for weeks, and the sun was a w...

To Mrs. Louvierre

To my dearest wife; our entanglement was quick and just, and I- I fell like a leaf in the gloom of Autumn, our love is as gold as the fields of Rye,  and my promise to you is eternally solemn.    My promise is this, as honesty comes as fair: I'll love you until death divides our hearts, and if tomorrow starts without me, my dear,  I'll love you even as my soul departs.

Smile of Poseidon

 In the cold breath of winter,  I am as unchanged as the sand beneath the snow,  Settled, but unsure if this soil,  Could, or would, ever let me grow,  My hands are dry, tired and calloused, and my feet dare to hold all of my burdens,  I'll continue to work my aching soul,  until the winter closes it's curtains, With the eyes of summer just beyond,  I'll keep my ambitions to the horizon,  as my mind floats out to the sea,  to meet the smile of Poseidon.
