Drive
Keep moving ahead
The dreams you dream are all in front of you
The actions you take
The dedication you display
The time you take
To chart the course
All come down to the drive you have
To seek your dreams and then to fulfill those dreams
Drive your success by allowing your dreams to come true

“The poet is a liar who always speaks the truth”.
(Jean Cocteau)
The Humble Approach
Humility brings life reassessment
Which path to choose?
Can it really work as planned?
A humble nature provides the path
Seek the truth by living the truth
The rewards you seek will come
Strive to find the path that fits
And happiness will be your reward
Really?
Black Lives Matter you say
Is that real or just a cliché?
Cannot believe we have to scream this everyday
Just to be heard, seen, and protected
From the brutal society trying to stamp us out
The daily body counts continue to rise
With no end in sight, we fall
Does not matter if it is a southern thing
Northern thing or western thing
Black lives continue to be extinguished
With no end in sight
So, I ask again, do Black Lives Matter?
When will you step up to make this true?
Simply saying it with no action makes it a hollow cliché
Something woke to say?
Time for action, some type of display
Marching is fine but there cannot be additional delay
Let us put more meaning to Black Lives Matter
Do it today!

The poetry of life moves me forward
Towards the things that bring
The happiness I need
To fulfill these huge dreams that I dream
Reaching out to help the next man
Create and work towards a plan
That makes the world a better place
And one that stands to improve your stake in the race
Let the poetry of life flow
And discover the glow
Of the poetic peace of living the life designed for you

The poet knows
The time and place to let the words flow
To get the point across
To those who read the words composed
Waxing a poetic and majestic flow
Is the goal the wordsmith is looking for
How we get there is not the important point
Putting the words together
That makes you think, smile and act
Now, that’s the joint!

The storm
Round and round it goes
Sometimes fast, sometimes slow
There are days it feels like a merry-go-round
Others, things are more controlled
The depth changes at times like the wind
A howling force that seeks attention
Then the calm, as the eye of the storm hovers overhead
No attention seeking, just the process of moving forward
What has this level of depth and speed?
It is simple, the life you lead

Open your eyes
Tell me what you see
Do the dreams you dream about still look good to you?
Can you reach the heights of greatness predetermined for you?
Nothing is promised in this world
You have got to make your own way
To ensure the promises of life
Get started today
Open your eyes to the life opportunities around
Set your goals and move forward
Stop hiding behind closed eyelids
Wake up and open your eyes
To the revolving world around

The poet knows
The time and place to let the words flow
