We excite the words on paper

Verses recently discovered reveal
Civilization’s demise, two thousand twelve
Further consternation
Stretching across cold Atlantic waters
Unknown to him, two tribes concur
Hopi, Mayan predictions
The end of time draws near; final years
Proclaimed in calendars, written in sky
Chilling Armageddon
Nuclear war; stars and planets collide
Hellish fury fuels the clash; Earth dies
Sacred retribution
When on the winter solstice, man harkens

Still Moonless Nights
when oceans were mighty our transports were tossed.
Just two days before on the grand Frisco Bay
they boarded as speakers blared “Anchors Aweigh”.
The Red Cross had served them fresh coffee for days;
they waited for orders to see someone pays
For death and destruction
that day in December when madness was dealt.
The
for those who’d survive and for some who would not.
The ocean reflected the bright city lights,
but darkness comes quickly on still moonless nights.

speak to my soul, freeing my spirit to soar.
Green fields, uncluttered by sandwiched buildings,
touch my heart, helping me to hope.
Natural fields, untainted by industries’ greed,
clear my mind, daring me to dream.
Flower-sprinkled fields, unsoiled by strewn litter,
enchant my eyes, giving me a glimpse of God.

Once Upon A Time
Once upon a time in a far away place
I dreamt I saw your face,
Beauty that took my breath away
I hoped would come true one day.
Time passed by and the dream faded
And pain my heart invaded,
A spark remained but was dimmed
I wondered if I had badly sinned.
For any love seemed a forlorn thing
Never to be worn a ring,
My hope was dwindling so fast away
As my hair began to turn to grey.
Then out of nowhere you came to me
More than a dream could be,
Love grew beyond anything in my life
You agreed to become my wife.
The reality a blessing beyond compare
Beautiful and oh so rare,
You made me whole again my darling
Now in harmony our hearts sing.

May Love Be the Light that Guides You
May love be the light that guides you,
May hope be your truest friend...
May God always walk beside you,
On faith, may you always depend.
Let honor be your companion,
Let peace settle deep in your soul...
May love be the light that guides you,
May your spirit be forever whole..
May your riches be greater than gold.

Words
Values, Morals and Honor
Three things I thought I had,
I always thought it was all about me
I was the coolest of the bad.
My father would try to tell me
"Son one of these days you will see,
To live with Morals and Honor
You have to learn some honesty".
I just couldn't see what my old man meant
To me he was rambling all the time,
20 years later and trying to grow up
His words I try to find.
When I think about the words my Dad used to say
No longer do I disagree,
I am sharing these words with my son today
Because his words had set me free.
