MY DAUGHTER POEM
in the cluttered chaos
of a busy city
kissed by God
i conceived
all by myself
unlike
the Virgin Mary
a little poem
named maia
girl-child maia
momma's baby madonna
blue eyed girl
with untamed hair
untempered spirit
in her bones
inside her eyes
willful child
that a mother
is afraid for
but proud of
i nursed her
greedy guppy mouth
she
starving to get going
on this road
called lif...

God works in Mysterious Ways,
we just have to look around and find the reason why.
For myself, I guess it was my calling.
I never thought in a million years I would get the virus,
that my 3 brothers and boy friend, had contracted,
then in 2000, I am diagnosed with it.
I knew there was a reason, but why,
then I started towards getting the necessary treatment,
got rid of the virus,

Why is love so hard to bear,
When it hurts so much that you care,
When they hurt you so bad that you wanna die,
and yet somedays you feel as if you could fly,
Right up to the sky safe in their arms,
How easily you succum to their charms,
Why does something so good have to hurt,
Sometimes it feels like they're only after whats under your skirt.
Why does love have to hurt?
When you're happy everythi...1 Recommendation16 Comments -
God
Every single evening
As I'm lying here in bed,
This tiny little Prayer
Keeps running through my head:
God bless all my family
Wherever they may be,
Keep them warm
And safe from harm
For they're so close to me..
And God, there is one more thing
I wish that you could do;
Hope you don'...1 Recommendation11 Comments -
Girls night out
My sisters and friends are going to see a Rock Concert
&
Took a chance on asking me,
if I would go with them.
Knowing I never go out, especially places with many people
well I decided to give it a shot.
I am feeling much better this year,
besides you'll never guess
who the band is...
It's the Eagles
They have always been a big part of my younger days,
along with,
The Who's, P...1 Recommendation11 Comments -

The Last Time.
If I knew it would be the last time
that I'd see you fall asleep,
I would tuck you in more tightly
and pray the Lord, your soul to keep.
If I knew it would be the last time
that I see you walk out the door,
I would give you a hug and kiss
and call you back for one more.
If I knew it would be the last time
I'd hear your vo...3 Recommendations9 Comments -
I'm through with standing in line
To clubs we'll never get in
It's like the bottom of the ninth
And I'm never gonna win
This life hasn't turned out
Quite the way I want it to be
(Tell me what you want)
I want a brand new house
On an episode of Cribs
And a bathroom I can play baseball in
And a king size tub big enough
For ten plus me
(So what you need?)
I'll need a credit card that'...1 Recommendation8 Comments -
A Ode to Arthritis
I’m not disposed to hysterical bursts or emotional crying,
but since I’ve had this damned disease, to deny it would be lying.
Doctor sent me to a rheumy specialist, a master of his field,
“I think you have Rheumatoid Arthritis” he said, your future now is sealed.
I’ve had that many X-Rays, I’m amazed I‘m not glowing bright green,

"The Last Resort"
She came from Providence,
the one in Rhode Island
Where the old world shadows hang
heavy in the air
She packed her hopes and dreams
like a refugee
Just as her father came across the sea
She heard about a place people were smilin'
They spoke about the red man's way,
and how they loved the land
And they came from everywhere
to the Great Divide
Seeking a place to s...1 Recommendation6 Comments -
