He, in a Lost World

He sits around a table
Lost in his own little space
Fondling his cold coffee cup
In a lost, bewildered place
Talks to the empty chair
That’s seated across from him
No one answers back, you see
Or wonders where he’s been
It’s a solemn conversation
About how his life could be
Do not look at him with disdain
One day it could be you or me
Sadly, this is a true story. So many people, especially around the holidays, are simply looking for a smile, a hello, recognition that they exist. Smile at a stranger…you may be the only light in a very dark place.

Nestled away in the boughs of the tree
Clutching a candy cane larger than he
With eyes as wide as the span of his wings
Hidden by ornaments and red beaded strings
Tapers of wax burn a soft candlelight
Reflections of Christmas shine in the night
Though small as he is, I’m sure you’ll agree
This little dragon, is the star on the tree

From Your Eyes

Twinkling in the cavernous dark
Across the ebony sky so stark
The colors of rainbows, against the night
Brilliant prisms of glowing light
To warm the coldest winter skies
With light that sparkles from your eyes
