And slowly I drift
Away from the one I know
To find me again

One Step Closer

I am exhausted
The sheer thought of moving
Devours my being
Sends my mind on a whirlwind
Unable to stop the spin
Like an autumn leaf meeting its demise
I continuously spiral
Downward, toward the earth below
Watching as the distance between
Disappears, and I am one step closer
To the ground, where I can rest
For eternity

Awakening with the new day’s dawn
Breathlessly unfolding in the morning light
She softly whispers to your heart
A secret only she can tenderly reveal

I don’t understand, when you argue and say
A memorial for the fallen, should not be displayed
A field of white crosses, eternal rest for the brave
A symbol of thanks, our flag on their grave
For ones who have fought, for your freedoms, your rights
Protecting your country, unafraid of the fight
Valor and courage stood tall, hand in hand
Remember, they gave you their all, they were proud Americans!
Always give thanks to the brave men and women who have given their lives so you can remain free. ~Memorial Day 2016~

Let your imagination run wild
Romp in a glistening tide, feel
The cool waters splash, as you
Run along the shores, under
The shining sun, feeling the
Warmth caressing your face.
Til at last, in the setting of the light,
When night sweetly kisses
The day goodbye
You can continue to dream………
