Now
Today I went walking across an open field
in hopes of finding solitude and a mothers
endless will, I noticed the ground I was
walking on was an honest ever green And
the flowers growing wildly along an open
stream , the sky was the deepest blue with
a subtel hint of green as the clouds
floated wildly as if it was a dream so i bid
the day good bye and slowly take a bow,
for i have found a friend and the friend i
found is NOW..

Awake Darkness all around me, what does it mean? Could it be real; or only a dream? Blue all around me, angels in flight, is it a dream; or could I be right? A good feeling around me some would call bad, my family I left if its true would be sad. What should I do? Take hold of my time, or should I go back, and take what is mine. I want to go home, I dont know what I,ve done I want to live my life that I have just begun. Is it true is this where I am, a life in the clouds that immortal land? This can't be my time, a trip I should take oops too bad i guess im awake

October The yellow leaves nestled in the bright Reds,and boring brownstiny little Pumpkins carved in smiles , Angry faces,and delightful frowns. A hay bail in the distance on A hill just before the sun goes to sleep Casts a shadow on my window Is a memory I will keep A fire place crackling as my Dad stokes the flames and the wind Blows the sun out,father time is to Blame you can here the birds Sing as they start to find a Roostwhile day and night struggles no More to a quiet solitude..the morning Comes in thesame way nite had to Begin with the sound of birds,the Peeking sun for nite and day made amends...

Today TODAY IS MY DAY,TOMORROW IS YOURS
FOR I FEEL SO BAD I NEED TO SOAR.
I'VE LIVED MY LIFE,TO THE FULLEST SOME SAY
NOW ITS TIME I MUST PAY.
FOR THE THINGS I'VE DONE AND LEFT UNDONE
FOR THE PEOPLE I HURT ,HIT AND RUN.
I DON'T REGRET THE CHOICES I MADE
I LEARNED LESSONS FROM THE DEPTS
I PAID...
I COULD TELL YOU I TRIED MY BEST
BUT IF I DID I WOULDN'T NEED REST
I COULD SIT BACK AND SMILE AT LIFE,AND EVERY THING IT GAVE
BUT INSTEAd IM HERE IN THIS COLD DARK BOX
BEING LOWERED IN MY GRAVE... Clint Brown Copyright ©2006 Clinton Brown |
