I fought for inspiration
From my imagination
And at the end of the day
I got kicked in the teeth
By a thunderfly ottermouse
Whew!
Poetry, lyrics and other words…
I fought for inspiration
From my imagination
And at the end of the day
I got kicked in the teeth
By a thunderfly ottermouse
Whew!
Stay in your lane!
Don’t micromanage others!
Your reputation isn’t going in the right direction!
Please, if you choose to walk in my shoes
Don’t you dare stray
Have a quick look around
And then walk away
It’s hard enough for me
To shuffle around in this place
Without tripping over your stuff
And falling flat on my face
So, if I find you’ve been here
And you were conscious and kind
I’ll invite you again
To walk further next time
Twisting and fighting
The demons within
Helplessly crying
Where to begin
All of the love has gone out of this life
Censured my soul
Cut out with a knife
Carelessly wondering
A desolate land
Not a mere morsel
To be found by this hand
Starved from the inside
Starved from without
The devil did win
He screams with a shout
Here is the prize
I promised my hoard
Once a good soul
Now cut from its cord
Callused and worn
Broken and cracked
Wrinkled and withering
Down in the back
Can’t see a thing
Without the aid of some specs
What did you say
My hearing’s a wreck
And yet I still smile
Every single day
God gave me this time
I’ll not waste it away
Do I consider myself lucky
No, that’s not the test
Someone faithful like me
Knows they are blessed
If I had only let go
When the anger began
There’d have been no turmoil
But pride ruled this man
Overcoming adversity
Was always taught to me
Yet, I let my guard down
And the darkness broke free
Now I sit in this cell
Awaiting the judge
I said I was sorry
I should have eaten the fudge
When the glamour faded
So did he
One moment there
The next – absentee
Why does this happen
All of the time
Will I ever find love
As myself – divine
Creating illusions
To capture the eye
Only to lose
Walk away and cry
Life isn’t fair
My mother always said
Yet I still find myself
Alone in this bed
But, maybe tomorrow
I’ll not wear the mask
Go out in the world
Take on the task
And maybe, if I’m lucky,
I’ll finally catch the eye
Of the love of my life
Well, at least it’s worth a try
Happy, happy everyday
Minnie helps me find my grace
Goofy, he’s a silly one
Loping ’round and having fun
Donald is a funny fowl
His voice is strange
My bill a scowl
And, Tootles keeps us on our toes
Solving riddles
With tools he knows
But, you all know this house of play
The name is, Mickey
Have a nice day
Be who you are
The power is inside
Reach for the stars
Have faith and not pride
Give voice to the voice
That resides in your heart
The words that you say
Can mend a soul torn apart
Speak kindness and love
And lead the right way
Smile and laugh often
Everyday
Time will soon come
And your ship will sail
Stay true in your faith
Live inside the pale
If I fall, I know the kiss of a thousand angel’s wings will catch me and set me upon the solid ground with a reassurance that can only come from God. If I lose a friend, my heart may break, but time will heal the heart and soul as our paths have been forever laid out before us in the book of life. We may not know what is written on those pages until we have ventured beyond them, but if we have faith in God, then it really doesn’t matter. Have faith and be well my friends!
