Our Summer That was our summer, Our broke paradise. It belonged to you And to me And to hope and no other. It was both one and the same, The shortest stretch of my love And the longest dream I have ever had. That dream still remains. That moment of our love Was the greatest slice, The only slice of paradise, That I have ever known. But what did we possess? The sun, The freedom of days unending? Love? Lust? Each other’s heart Or just a lingering embrace? Regardless, you are my scar, My bleeding wound.

That Day That day with you shimmered, a laughing daydream. Green never looked so green. Water glistened, And caught our smiling faces. The wind whispered, softly kissing our skin. Sunlight fell through treetops, Celebrating you with dappled patterns. As you walked, the patterns changed, And the colors changed, And you were cast in kaleidoscope light. As we strolled paradise, hand in hand, There was a weightiness, a heaviness to our steps. Our feet struck the ground slowly, solidly, purposefully. We were connected to the earth, and to one another, In a literal sense. That day was surreal, yet so real. I think that in the end When I lay down to die, fading from this world And closing my eyes, I will see you that day, Smiling in the sun.

Grandpa Is gentle and slow But he is a bear He is hairy and he shows his teeth When he smiles He growls and snores But he is like Davie Crockett He carves things with knives And he fights monsters He mows the yard and listens to sports On a small radio While the rest of the world has Big screen high definition Grandpa Will be grandpa Forever

Grandma Is like glue Holding the family together She loves all of us The grandchildren But she is the matriarch The queen Always demur And a lady With her purse and her heels And her Sunday morning church smile She smells like powder And she is timeless Full of love and stories and Just the right explanation Of why things are what they are And how they should be She is flawless and perfect The best grandma Anyone could hope for

Brothers and sisters Brothers and sisters Fight like cats and dogs They also teach and learn And grow together Looking out for one another In the best of times And through the worst In the end Sometimes our best friend Can be a sister Or a brother

"Sissy" I walk home from school And Sissy is there Always there To play with me Or to scold While mom is away She is my big sister My biggest fan Because I’m the family’s "little man" But I love her more Because she is my protector My teacher and friend And my sister forever Always "Sissy" Until the end

A poem for Mother
There was a time when I was small Not yet strong or tall When you held my hand There was a time when you sang me a song And daily Taught me right from wrong So that I could become an honest man There was a time that I was sick And you put a cool cloth to my head You kissed my cheek while I lay in bed And then I knew everything would be okay Over the years you cared for me All your love and joy was free So now I take this time to say "I love you" And Happy Mothers Day!!

Why Out of the starkness of the ordinary Comes a swinging translucent dream That draws yesterday and today Tomorrow and forever Into a tight spiral Circling inwards Always asking Why?

Childhood Friendship Poem We played cowboys and Indians, batman and robin Or speed-racer in the streets of our youth We sailed on cloudy ships through the sky of dreams Fancied ourselves pirates We dug tunnels in my back yard, Ran through fields of corn, And swam in muddy Kentucky water. We suffered sunburns, bee-stings, and lectures from almighty mom. And now, when all is said and done, After 30 years have come and gone I wonder, are we anything more than this? More than childhood friends? Are we more than hopeful dreamers, schemers; More than actors on a stage? The world is a bigger place now, a new playground. The stakes are higher, but we are none the wiser. I think that we are still just two lazy boys Fishing under a golden sun.

Life The family circle grows Smaller over the years Grandpa goes And grandma fills with tears Then dies alone Someone sold their home Aunts and uncles With tumors and lung disease All disappear Those we hold dear Drift from the earth And then from our memory But new life is born under a golden sun To take the place of those deceased The pitter patter of small feet Replaced the aged cane And the wheelchair

With great effort I push my heart blindly forward Into the open spaces of this bright world Knowing That I am alone And that this birth My birth After love This life after death Is all that I have And that no one owes me a thing

You are my mirror And I weep for the seeing Looking at you, looking into me Everything that I am Everything I could ever be Hidden in your shinning eyes Sometimes I see a man smaller than myself Petty I see a fool Sometimes in your eyes, I am much larger than myself A king, a God And I have never known unconditional love, Until I knew you With a spirit that is pure, Like Holy water In a sacred pool And when the ugly part of me speaks (The small man) You are silent Waiting for your champion And when he laughs, and shines his stupid grin You are patient Waiting for your king. And when he stumbles You extend a gracious hand Helping him to stand So you see Your mirror shows the truth of me And I could never lie When I look into your eyes

Because I miss you My pain is stretched Across a broad cold winter And the core of my heart Is splintered Because you’re gone Because I miss you But this love lingers on And there is no seperation from your memory No progression from our history And destiny Without you Is chained to a locked chest Sinking To the bottom of the sea The sun now hurts my eyes Tired of crying in darkness Because the light is not the same Without you It is a phantom sun that shines Not revealing your shadow Next to mine And the wind Against my skin Is cold without you Because I miss you I am not myself Because the me That is me Is not me without you And the man I had hoped to be Is dead without you So I become The phantom sun And the cold wind and the crying darkness and the locked chest And I am waiting For your love to return to me Because I miss you.

I miss you I miss the way you laugh And how your hand felt in mine I miss the smell of your perfume Other women betray you With that fragrance I miss the sun Because it had a special way of shining On the two of us I miss your hugs I love you And I miss you

Saying goodbye is difficult, but goodbye poems help ease our pain. They bring finality, completion. Sad love poems and goodbye poems help us express what we need, to see a ralationship through to a peaceful end.
Goodbye Goodbye my love We tried In the end we can say That instead of tears We smiled wonderful memories Upon what once was But we each know the truth that life holds And the realities that unfold So if love is a dying flame At least we can say That were warm Until the end.

A final end (Goodbye) How do you say good bye to someone you love? How do you make such a decision in the first place? Life makes it for us Reason and emotion don’t go hand in hand But our hands Fit nicely together Until life told us otherwise Goodbye Is such a cruel sounding word Like death It plagues the mind of the living And the heart that is used to giving love But goodbye Sometimes Is not a final end But the beginning of a new chapter And the creation of a fond memory Which will keep our heart company forever Goodbye my friend I love you

Sounds of Sorry Words are just noises We make with our mouth So how can these sounds Mend a broken heart? (yours AND mine) Can they ever say enough? I will try with my mouth And with these sounds To apologize Because I was wrong And I know that now "I’m sorry baby. I still love you. Please return Your heart to me Because my heart misses it’s friend. I’m sorry…"

I'm Sorry Some would say I lied. But I think that I tried To give you what you needed, And to save a love that died. I'm sorry for hurting your feelings For causing you so much pain. Sorry for the changes, And sorry for all the rain That my love poured upon your heart And I'm sorry for the stain That my love left upon your life Creating so much pain. I tried to give a love That was so real and true But after all the tears you cried I say, I'm sorry To you.

Your Fair Garden In your fair garden I found a new sun And a reason to believe again A new season of love Was growing With surprising color and stones to border The edges of my broad heart Watching you transform the earth Smiling Glistening in the sun I tried to remember why my love died I felt the warmth of your hands As you toiled Earthen hands With nails that scratched the earth to new growth Yes I fell in love again There was shade and sunlight And tiny green sprouting everywhere Sweat and sunshine Raw dirt And vivid color Such life growing by your hands Working the earth into a bright frenzy And I had fallen again In your fair garden

Sunlight fell through treetops, Celebrating you with dappled patterns. As you walked, the patterns changed, And the colors changed, And you were cast in kaleidoscope light.

We were connected to the earth, and to one another, In a literal sense. That day was surreal, yet so real. I think that in the end When I lay down to die, fading from this world And closing my eyes, I will see you that day, Smiling in the sun.

Snow Cone Lips Snow cone lips are cold to kiss. A strange contrast, Cold kissing lips, To usual warm ones. Snow cone lips are numb, And offer a rainbow smile. Red and blue and green, Like the swirled dome atop the cone. Snow cone lips are fun to kiss. They tickle your cheek like a cold whisper. Or they melt in your mouth, With growing warmth. But then another lick, And snow cone lips Once more

The Thimble Wrapped around in silk Or light Or woven love A thimble Is a beautiful thing. I’m certain that my love for you In all it’s unraveling adoration Could be wrapped around a tiny spool Then you could keep it in your pocket Or tie some of it around your finger To remind you that I love you And I do Yes Thimbles are beautiful things Thimbles are tiny symbols Of love!
