Just Live II


Just Live II

Feel the passion 
as you make it happens

Here's a tip
don't even trip

 It's your time
You'll do just fine

When you live

Just live

It so fun
to get it done

Without the stress
No need to press

Roll out the tide
and enjoy the ride

 Live 

just live

See life is too short
To stay in the port

And opportunities are lost
When you don't know the cost

of not being in the game
 See, It's such a shame

when we're 
scared 
to

 live

Just live!

The Creed

The Creed

Do we really appreciate 
what we've got

Or is it more 
like dwelling on 
that, elusive,
" have not"

 Thinking 
things would be better
if we just had
 "it"

But desires of 
possessions are 
a bottomless pit

That make us 
obsessive and
filled with worry 

Impulsive, frustrated, frazzled, in 
 a hurry

Even empty
 at times

As the yearning
fills our mind

But happiness
can not be
possessed

With or without
"things" we are
not less

We have all 
we'll ever need

If we just make 
"thankfulness"
our creed

 For no one else can create
our joy

and we damn sure
don't need any
more toys

To give our spirits
that wonderful
lift

That comes from just being
grateful that life is 
a gift

Honest Effort

Focus on the good
I know I really should

but it's easier said than done

and sometimes the bad seems
much more fun

or at least kind of sexy 

you know, late at night when I'm 
texting

But oh, I guess that's a difference
subject

You know, you really gotta
love that

When the mind starts to drift

To focus on anything would
be a gift

Especially, if it was good

I guess with little practice, I really 
could

Replace my negative thoughts

or at least stay detached from them,
like I ought

Cause they say, what we think 
we become

Be it vibrant or
desensitize and numb

So

 it's worth the work
it entails

And through honest effort
there's no way
 I can fail

When The Cold Comes Are Way

Enter the cold
 There's a chill in the air

That whistles in the wind
and makes us all aware

That winter 'round the corner
Snow is on the way

Holidays, families 
gatherings
and 
What to do on shorten days

 Like keeping
our bodies warm

Making love
during snow storms

Hot toddies, snow ball fights

and did I mention,
 love making nights

Bodies on bodies
wrapped and intertwined

Heating our our flesh and bones 
refocusing our minds

On the beauty we
create when the 
cold comes our way

To warm our evening
and enjoy
cool days

The Best


What I came to say
Is It's wonderful the way

You express your point of view
you're just unique in what you do

And the appreciation's great
and I'll never hesitate,

my dear, to confess
I love your way
 it's 
the best

The Yogic Way

Grateful 
Not entitled

Humble 
Not an idol

Focused
Not flippant

Balanced
Not slipping

Open 
Never closed

Flowing
Never posed

Mindful
Never unaware

Just
Never unfair

May we continue 
to strive

With every
breath
of our
lives

To be the best
that we can 
be

But stay realistic
cause that's the 
key

And when we
fall short
and we do
everyday


 May we remember
"Grace and Humility"

is the
 Yogic way

The Brilliance Of You


The Brilliance Of You

You, of course, are amazing
blazing
a trail that is unique

I, of course, am star gazing
witnessing a talent at her peak

You, of course, are breathtaking
making
a statement with all that you do

I, of course, am just taking
an opportunity to praise 
the brilliance 
of you
