A night on the town
Oh, no, not for me
I’d rather stay in
Catch a flick on TV
Kick off my shoes
Recline in my chair
No make-up at all
Nor care for my hair
Grab a bag of chips
Munch til I’m content
Next, find the ice cream
On this, I’m hell bent

We are merely sheep
Languishing in the teardrops
Of a weeping Earth

An air settles
Upon the Earth
The subtlety
Of spring’s rebirth
That gathers round
Expands its girth
Anxious to let the breeze in
Flowers bloom
In vibrant form
Wakening now,
Tis their norm
To feel the rain,
A nurturing storm
This is their only reason
To decorate land,
In pastel hue
Add in vibrancy,
A pinch or two
Looking forward
To what else they’ll do
With the changing of the season

A home built high
Upon a tree
Once held the young
Now sits, empty
They’ve flown away
A world to see
Oh how I wish
They, were me
I’d fly above
This world, unrest
A silent tear
Shed on my quest
Then cry aloud
At my own behest
Won’t someone join me
In this nest?
Where we can heed
From one, above
The somber coo
Of a mourning dove
Who fears humanity
All hate, thereof
She prays that Earth
Will find her love
Where once a man
Was born, so free
Taking pride in all
This majesty
Let’s fly away
Perhaps we’ll see
Just how beautiful
This world could be

Though rain overwhelms
The spider never gives in
She climbs up the drain
