A collection of poetry and thoughts. The Timeless Race: I fly on velvety wings and balmy wind/As fingers with purpose caress my skin/I forget to breathe and slip through time and space/As my heart joins yours in life's timeless race

A collection of poetry.

A collection of poetry. Strolling along these serene, grassy banks / I bow my head in wondrous, grateful thanks / For these peaceful, still-moments of grace / From life's hard and rancorous footrace / Where hard knocks follow closely on my heels / And the devil slides up offering his cunning deals / I realize there are few who care about my pain / But walking here I appreciate this day's gentle rain / It's not that I don't see the mud below the flowers

Friends never ask how or why/ They never steal, cheat or lie/ They're just unselfish deeds/ And unspoken cross-our-heart creeds/ The rest of the world may have deserted you/ But real friends stay faithful and true

Every now and then I flash back to a simpler time / Where pain was a stumped toe from a failed climb / Heartbreak was losing your best doll or toy train / Joy came from running and dancing out in the rain / Your best friend sat with you in the corner when caught / True love came from the heart and couldn't be bought / But then I open my eyes and look around at this world / I think somewhere along the way I may have lost that girl.

A collection of poetry.

A collection of poetry. Memories. Memories are often disguised and veiled/As snatches of feelings and thoughts inhaled/But with each and every telling and repeating/These collective truths take a gallant beating/They become our unique and jeweled prize/Of made-up reminiscences and treasured lies.

Not an amount. Just how long is forever? What happens when time ends never? What will we do without watching a clock? What will we do after eternity has lost its lock? Will we use it learning to use our new wings? Or will we stand around praising the King? Will we spend it holding the family we had missed? Or use it to learn the names of the angels in our midst? Forever is ticks of time we will never have to count. Forever is a gathering of moments and not an amount.
