Raging Wolf Spirit
Deep in the night
a lone wolf cries
howling out his mournful tune
his family and home gone
lost and alone he wanders
no place for warmth
heart and soul gone, destroyed
a beast without conscience
no fear makes him dangerous
where once he hunted meals
praying on the sick or weak
cleansing the flocks and herds
keeping the whole strong and healthy
now he challenges any
who dare stand in his path
raging bloody battles
only fuel the fire within
as a broken ethereal spirit
he haunts a land once protected
until the earth claims him
and his body returns to dust.
My life and dream
They all congratulate me
passionately following my dream-
look into my life and see
how tears flow as a stream
drowning out all my fears.
Troubles I have faced in life
pierce my soul like spears;
love grows amidst turmoil and strife-
friendship that never ends-
our twice broken bleeding hearts
eternal love comforts and mends.
-expression of my soul through arts.
Childhood Dreams
Reaching deep into the heart
dealing with the pain
is often a fearful, difficult task,
but must be done
to experience the cleansing power
of a fresh outlook on life.
A new outlook on life,
and a future of dreams
bright with possibilities.
Invigorating youthful expectations
coupled with wisdom of age
creates wealth and power
to accomplish the dreams
of childhood almost forgotten.
Cry out Loud
I've talked to hundreds through the years
I've seen the joy and felt the tears
I sit alone within a crowd,
And watch the people cry out loud
I wonder why no one hears,
And why the laughter hides the tears.
For people have a common need,
That lies beneath the well-groomed greed.
We're all afraid to let it show,
For if we do we all will know,
That deep inside we're all the same,
We have the hope, we feel the pain
So next time you're feeling low,
And you believe that no one knows,
Remember me, out in a crowd,
I hear the people cry out loud.
