As She Sleeps

Let the rain fall down as she sleeps

 I will kiss her on the cheek

As I quietly leave the bed

Dealing with life issues in my head

Sitting at the piano or strumming the guitar

Thinking about my sleepy little superstar

How she always has my back

And stands by my side when the world attacks

 How she falls out on my chest

Whenever she puts my skills to the test

Her encouraging words and her arousing touch

How she looks in my eyes like she loves me so much

Even when I fall from grace

She's in my hair and kissing my face

How she affectionately invites me in

to bury my frustrations in her skin

She settles me down with her sighs

 Steals my heart with the tears in her eyes

And then she falls into slumber deep

So, let the rain fall down as she sleeps

Echoes For Eternity

Through time 

Through the years

Listen close

Can't you hear

It's here,

now

In your face like
 wow

Influencing generations

cultures, creeds

It's in the air that we breathe

and the moves we make

It's in the way we sleep and how we wake

And, the bond will never break

Everlasting, timeless, infinite 

basking in the sun's glow

Significant

In the change of the wind

A new incarnation of the same ol'

sin

Or blessing

whether in denial 

or confessing

It's the same as it ever was 

Sempiternal

We know this cause it was 

journaled

And in folklore

tested by science

Our surrenders

 our defiance

What we do echoes

and the ages can't let go

Fame or infamy 

What we do, today

Echoes for

eternity

The Person

Positivity doesn't always live with me

Sometimes I'm sleeping with the enemy

Anger, doubt, anxiety, stress

Plenty of ish to get off my chest

But I chant my mantra

pray on my knees

read affirmations

save lucky pennies

All in hopes of gaining that edge

With minutes to spare 

talked off the ledge

 Cause I don't wanna jump

I really want to live

But at times it seems I have no more

to give

Some how, some way
 I wanna stand tall

Be the person who gets up after the fall

Be the person
who works
through
 adversity

Be the person
that I strive
to be

 Through struggle 

  gaining strength

 Over time
 making sense

of  life

Cause I don't have to be
the hero or
the genius

just the person
willing
to overcome

 moments
of weakness

Today (is a new day)

Leave each day behind

Like water that flowed during ancient times

Be free of misery, sadness,
 regrets of the past

Even the good times don't last

Those stories have already been told

Today is new,
bright, bold

Today can bring new opportunity

If from yesterday,
 you're free

Awaken

No matter how bad it may seem

Wake each day

from the dream

Nightmare, illusion

medicating, druggin', boozin'

Cause you can't be woke

until you're awake

Reality TV is fake

You're not what you've been

taught to believe

And trust, your freedom wasn't free

or given to you way back

by a bearded lawyer in a top hat

Fairy tales are fake

You can't be woke

until you are awake

So, wake up and embrace your brilliance

Your ingenuity and resilience

You rock the world with your style

Make the meaningless worthwhile

So to doubt your talent would be a big mistake

Cause you can't be woke 

until you're awake

Why don't we help 

heal 

 wounds

instead of blaming the victims

Bring some compassion 

to a cold and callous

Give direction to the 

troubled and lost

An ounce of prevention

is surely worth the cost

Get Back On The Grind

Get back on the grind
use the meditation mind

your body's a temple

that thoughts can

define

From extremely simple

to more complex

From Martial arts

Living, moving, breathing, creating

The gifts are abundant

why are you waiting

Come dazzle the world with
brilliant feats

For the soul is revealed
where
mind/ body
meets

Your Presence

I do not own this pic

Be here in full

with no bull

No half assin'

on this watch

Give it everything you got

Your attendance is required

Your excuses have expired

Don't shrink in the moment

 Never be cocky

But you've gotta own it

Once the effort is put in

We'll have your back,
again and again

But, in order to
 live up to your potential

I gotta tell ya,
your
presence is essential

LaNae

I went to visit LaNae, today

She was upbeat despite overcast skies  

She had something dangerously sexy on her mind

stated by the gleam in her eyes

Her kiss was bliss

or hypnotic, I guess

Cause I fell into her room

The lights went out and another voice whispered,

"Welcome to your doom"

I woke to handcuffs and stuff

Our wrists were latched 

and she screamed in a very high pitch

"Succumb to my feminine wiles" 

I thought, 

"The girl must be a witch"

Leather, lace and another face

The bed was simply on fire

In a trance my soul was hitched

 as she 

screamed, 

"You've gotta take me higher"

When I came down

She wasn't around

Gone
On her merry little way

She left a note that spoke 

about our night

and thanked me
for helping her
celebrate

  Prince day

I am not what you want me to be

That fact that you don't understand that makes no difference to me

For great things are thrust upon the woman or man

Who listens with the intent to understand

not to control, manipulate or guilt into submission

We Are

The moving force

ignites healing light

Breath inspired 

 full moon night

Take her higher

Till space and stars

are just a reflection 

of who we are

Inner voice

Soothing sound

Vibrating rhythm

Take her down 

To the depth of the ocean

upon it's floors

A mirror image of
us
at our core

For we are earth, dark matter,
sea

The Fiery sun

cloaked in humanity

On The Mat (2017)

Yoga's like music

don't lose it

It bring rhythm

to body's

motion

Helps you regain

that 

magic

potion

It's there

if you dare
Become aware

Yoga creates 

So don't wait

 Build

that steady mind

 Journey 

through space and time

 It can be rough

Hang tough

Forged in fire

Drenched in sweat

The spirit of a warrior 

has no regrets

as he/she works through 

muscle and bone

Repairing the only home

 ever known

 Years of wear

some disrepair
Strength lies inside, if you dare

Work through the obstacles, distractions and cracks
To regain the true self
  on the mat

True Power Of Yoga

Accustomed to searching outside ourselves for gratification

Most of us exist in a world preoccupation

Though we know, in our hearts, nothing external can satiate the hunger within

We fall into the same trap over and over again

Doing rather than being

Focus sabotaged by fleeing

Caught in the world of the unsteady mind

Where worry and negativity haunts us most of the time

But, beloved, there's a peaceful power that lies within 

Flowing like a river of equanimity, dive right in

Delve deep into the subtle layers of the soul

Where dynamic perceptions of awareness are ready to unfold

But, we must get beyond the superficial stimulation seen by the eyes

Because that's where the true power of  yoga lies

Nubian Queen

I do not own this pic


Nubian from dark to light

You're the star of my dreams every night

You started our world 

with your hips

Lucy's discovery on

 everyone's lips

You reigned as queen

in the motherland 

From the Egyptian niles

to South Africa

forest sands

Gorgeous diva, street and well read

Straight or kinky hair

on your head

Shapely hips

Beautiful mind

Soul of the family

A love defined

Underrated by the ignorant,
 hating, class

Praised by me
 till
my dying last

Nubian Queen,
Goddess,
Wife

 I sing praise and admiration
for your life

A Blueprint To Grow

Who are we

We must accept who we are

When we accept our limits

We'll undoubtedly go far

Our limits aren't barriers

They're guideline of a sort

They guide us through intuition

and give life support

Cause there's limitless freedom

once we know the rules

Wide open airspace

And we're provided plenty of fuel

It's immeasurable,

the great distance we're

 able to go

If we know our

limits and use them 

as a blueprint

to grow

Your Beautiful Lips

I do not own this pic


The way they kiss, and feel, and part

The way they say my name
excites my heart

The way they sigh
 when we love

That devilish grin
when you can't get enough

The way they touch my ear 

when you let a secret slip

Everything about them
I love

Your lips

The way they smack

when you doubt my

words

The way they frown

when your words aren't 

heard

The way they 

look
when you

speak your mind

Or the knowledge

they spit
 that's impresses

me every time 

The way they smear lipstick

on the cup

you sip

Makes me dig everything
about them

I love
your lips

So come close and
touch me,
Bae

And in the night we
will lay

You in my arms
Me in your hips

And I will
love everything
about your
beautiful
lips

Doing What You Do

You made 'em laugh, Charlie

Doing what you do

The spirit of your life was raw and true

The connection we felt

was from your honest display

of life's absurdities during our day

And,  we all needed that therapy 

That cathartic release

That deep belly laugh

 Thank you, man

Rest in Peace

The moon is shining in the morning dark

5 AM is when I start

In the quiet of dawn, before the sun's rays

I see the world with new eyes, everyday

My Aurora ritual gives me a sense of routine

But even that,

 I freshen up

every now and in between

Cause life reconstructs

itself

in myriad ways

So, I see the world with

new eyes, everyday

Now, family and friends

 say this way of thinking is 

a little over the top

But I say, 

life gonna change all 

of us whether we like it 

or not

For better or for worse

We determine the way

That's why I see the world with new eyes, 

every single day

Evidence Of Your Character

Your attitude is reflected

in your behavior

In other words, you are the creator

of your flavor

What flavor you got

There's really no future in pretending that it is what it's not

At least not for long

Cause it comes off all wrong

So, be truthful in how you feel
For everyones sake learn to keep it real

Cause the mental becomes motion
and the motion won't have potion

unless it's settled into your  thinking

So set your intentions
No flinching or shrinking

You only lack
 what you can't back
that's just a fact

 Behavior mirrors
mentality

That's just reality

Or if you prefer

It's evidence of your
 character

Come Out And Play

Warm night

 Moonlight 

Got your text

Phone sex

 Your flirtatious style

made me smile

Now can bae

come out and play

Springtime air

is everywhere

Setting the mood

for what we like to do

A night of fun

is overdue, hun

What do you say

 will you come out and play

They say that life is quite brief

Kinda' bittersweet

So while we can 

let's make a plan

That when it's warm

Moonlight or storm

You'll find a way,

come what may,

to accept my invitation

and come out and play

A Healing Allure

Burn like the sun

 You'll get it done

 The spark will blaze

Spirits are raised

 Energy becomes light
What's dim turns bright

And, it happens

 Something fantastic 

 Powerful,

 pure

A healing allure

Strong as the fire above
As magnificent as a mother's love

A wondrous high
Of god and sky

Created not by fret
But, by the intention
you set

Torrential Rain

Storm clouds have rolled in again

Foreboding torrential rain

As an apprehensive citizenry

 quickly starts to feel the pain

Such is the lot of a people

mesmerized by fortune 

and fame 

 They end up with a impatiently peevish

emperor who only wishes to 

glorify his name

But we have no time to play the blame game,

For the emperor is diabolically strange

And if we don't restore sanity

our precious lives will never be the same

You Don't Need Approval ( From Anyone)

Pic from Daily Mail Online


Be your beautiful self

You don't need approval 

from anyone else

Your skin, your curves

your lips, your nose

Be in love with all 

of those

Then love them over again

Over and over until it sinks in

There's spiritual wealth in

being yourself

So, be your beautiful self

You don't need approval 

from anyone

else

Be your beautiful self

You don't need approval 

from anyone else

Your walk, your style,

the way you speak

are as wonderful

to behold as they

are unique

So don't feel daunted,

just go ahead, flaunt it

It's spiritual wealth

Go  ahead

be your beautiful

self

Be your beautiful self

You don't need approval 

from anyone else

At home, on the go,

or hanging with a crowd

You're one of a kind
be proud,

say it loud

Then say over and over

again

Let the realization
grow from
within

 Say it in the mirror,
 every day

In the morning
when you rise
and at night before you pray

Even now
just say

I gonna be my beautiful self
and

I don't need approval 

from anyone else

Grey Day

Grey day

She wants to play

Work days are overrated any way

She brings the munchies

I got the wine

Rainfall is an 

auspicious sign

Cause,

Pluviophiles Love the 

rain

Thunderstorms are even

more

insane

Got us feeling like stardom 

and fame

As the room flashes

with lightning

strikes

We love each other with

all our might 

Loud enough for 

neighbors to hear

But we don't  care

Nor do we fear

What anyone thinks about our

ways 

Or even what they have to

say

Cause it's a grey day

And she wants 

to play

Share Your Light

Flickering lil candlelight

dreaming of the day 

you'll shine 

bright

Bright enough to burn like stars

So you'll be wished upon

wherever you are 

Bright enough to be a 

beacon of light

To guide lost souls

on dark, foggy nights

Bright enough to make the sky 

transform

Like a lightning strike

in the middle of

a storm

But don't be envious

lil candlelight 

You must be doing

 something right

For a thousand candle

your flame

has lit

And your shine 

hasn't dulled

not 

even

 one

 bit

Inspired by fire

Rising fearlessly

In a trance like state

I mean, seriously

Accomplishing goals 

with alacrity

Her passion 

materializing from fantasy

It shows on her face

and it's felt in her vibe

Her presence is power

She won't be denied

The choice to live out

her wildest dreams

Inspired by fire

And that's a wonderful thing

April Is Here

It's the first day of spring
at least it is to me

April first is here, finally

Showers rain down instead

of snow

and winter coats gotta go

Warmer weather in the air

 Lunchtime picnics

aren't so rare

Weekend excursions or 

northern hikes

Ditching the car 

for the bike

Pick up games
in the park to play

NFL Draft and Opening Day

 Lovers emotions
begin to bloom

 Long walks to the
light of the moon

Yeah, the first day of spring
is here, finally

Or at least it's the
first day of spring
to me
