You Decide

Standard

A red cardinal over there,

A mesquite tree over here.

Mother Nature shows me many creations.

The smell of wet saltgrass and dirt

Fill my senses.

This oak tree I am under,

Her leaves shine as if coated in silver

As raindrops sparkle setting delight afire

Within my heart.

Nature presents herself

As is,

The individual decides whether she is beautiful or not.

I Knew Him

Standard

I knew him then.

The boy.

The child.

I knew him when the sun played on his shoulders.

When a glance at the clouds above would set him free.

When nothing could stop him from

Dancing

Or

Smiling.

It is as if another lifetime now.

I do not know what happened out there in the world.

I do not know who stole

Delight from his veins.

But I do know

Whoever

Stole it,

They did not take it all.

For

I see it in his shadow.

Delight

Standard

Insatiable delight.
Once you take a bite
The taste will leave you
Wanting more.
Lingering on your
Mind.
You’ll close your eyes
And shut the door
To any other existence.
Any other way
To satiate your appetite.
The craving will keep
You up at night
Tossing
Turning
Yearning
For it all.
For one more
Taste.
One more
Luscious
Bite
Of
Delight.
