Affinity

Smiles
and the sunshine
These moments
pass the time

Grass between toes
Feet in soft sand
Letting go of woes
With the offer of a hand

Words
of grand delight
The world
turns to right

Conversations
Into the night
Laughter rings
Warm and bright

Shades
of a soft sunset
spread across cheeks
Blushing in
all varieties
of peaches and pinks

Voices low
Then voices high
To an unstopping
crescendo they will fly

Enjoyment
Comes as we share
The way we learned
to show we care

Dancing
to the beat of rain
The earth will swallow
all our pain

So hug me tight
And hug me again
For we celebrate
Us, dear friend.

Moving On

May you leave
Just as lovely
As the way you came,
In the warmth of sun
As deep as the sea
And laughing the same.

Cry Baby

cry baby cry

baby it’s okay to cry 

sometimes life can be so sad

you just want to die 

but love is greater 

miracles exist 

and sunshine pours through rain

so cry baby cry for now 

because soon 

you won’t remember the pain
