As the Bald Eagle flew
Soaring the Yellowstone
Above...
Watching as the water
Turns to ice
Than water again...
The Big Horn sheep
Walking down the Mountain
To the water holes
To break their thirst...
Cattle and horses
Grazing in the fields....
Captures of green
And of snow...
Below the mountains
Of white
Skies are of blue...
Snow packed roads
Travel at ease...
That's what I see.......

The Light of Night
The light of night
Dares to be....
It's casting of shadows
Through the trees....
The creatures of the evening
Come out to play....
I see the spiders
As they web,away....
The mysterious flights
Of the bat....
The sounds
They travel....
Making the mind
Wonder what
Or where,it is....
The sky's so dark
But beyond....
The brightness
Of the stars ....

The Walk
Tank full of gas
That dirt road of memories....
I see the dust
In the rear view mirror....
The roads of many
I have made...
Some were rough
Pot holes and rocks....
The destination
For you to see....
I will never have to say
I wish I did
Or I should have....
A million miles of memories
Are in my back pocket........

Unfold The Magic
Unfold the magic
On it's journey
Let the mind relax
Seeing the roads ahead....
May it be of people
Who you met
Nature as it lives
Objects that draw attention....
Don't journey to the past
It doesn't live anymore
Some memories,put away
As in a chest
With lock and key....
I see the rainbows
Colors of bright and far
The creeks so clean
With pebbles and rocks below...
You can see the stars
With clear nights a far
The smell of clean air
Away from cities
People and cars....
That's the magic
With my journey
So far...
To sit on a rock
Glance at the fish
In the waters below....
Hear the birds
As they tell you so...
I see the wild flowers
As they bloom
The many colors
Scented smells too...
The turtles hurrying
With the hundred yard dash
To always finish last....
I see the rabbits
Coyotes too
The Ravens flying way above
With skies of blue...
Gentle rains
Breezes blowing ever so lightly...
This is the journey
My magic
Flows through...
To unfold it's beauty
Sounds
Smells too....
The magic I unfolded
Was of words
Bringing you to a place
To comfort you ....
Empty out the negativity
The magic is there for you
Silence is not with whispers
Is this journey for you....
Always remember in life
Sometimes a short cut
Is the long way around....
So unfold the magic
On your journey
Bring it to you...........

Walk Your Walk.......
Don't walk or think in self pity or guilt!
Make yourself proud,by what you do or think,not of what other's think of you,or what you think,they think of you!
As long as it's doing something good-do it......
The human mind is the most powerful tool on this Earth-use it wisely!
People over think a problem,it's probably a simple one,but over think it and it's a full blown problem (in their mind)..WHY!!!!!!!
Live your life as you want to live and (Or) do...
Without the thoughts of what other people think!!
Nobody can think of what other people are thinking,but the person themselves..
All it is, is a guessing game,guess what-YOU LOOSE!!!
Don't put your thoughts or words into anyone's mouth or their thoughts,it doesn't work..
You haven't a clue what they are thinking,you seriously don't,give up trying..
It will make you with self pity and guilt of the mind.....
Something you started by yourself,not other people!
Get out there,be yourself,enjoy what life has to offer..
It's there for the taking,always will be too...
Be with people that have the same values as yourself,same hobbies,same thoughts about life.....
It leads to great conversation....
Don't ever hang around people that give you a low complex or single you out-doesn't matter if its family or friends!
Leave them,leave the situation,find people that make you comfortable,making you feel at ease...
They are out there,believe me so!!!
Don't ever seek self pity! Hold your head high,walk proud,speak your words,smile,laugh,enjoy life!
It doesn't matter what others think of you,it really doesn't!
Your life is yours-enjoy it,the way you see fit!
The worries are just thoughts,that are not real (As I stated earlier),they really don't exist,but just stir around in the mind,waiting to be forced in play or forgotten .... Your choice!
Let it go,get rid of those worries,cast them aside!!!
Live in faith,walk in faith-IT WORKS!!!
Life is short,you only get one try,take it,use it wisely,with no regrets,no worries...
Life is good,if you let it be that way!
Only you can change that,YOU!!!!!!!

Natures soul
Walking the trees today
It was all nature and me
All the trees starting to bud
For their spring blooms and leaves
The ice melting from the creek
Forming pools of cold water
For the birds,fish and beaver
The deer in the back woods
Running here and there
Ready to mother fawns
The winds blowing
Through the trees
A soothing sound of nature
A field mouse running
Through the harvested land
To it's nesting site
In a hole in the ground
All the trails from the deer
During their winter runs
Going through the tall grasses
Under the fences
To the thickest of trees
My footsteps
Ever so quite
Silents from my lips
My eyes are focus
My ears hearing
What nature does
To relax the soul.....

The Island of Dreams
An island of dreams
Was on the horizon....
I seen it
From the floating raft
I was on....
Was on the horizon....
I seen it
From the floating raft
I was on....
To tired,to awake
I continued to drift
To this island
The island of dreams....
With its shore of sand
Very few trees
Did I see....
In these dreams
It can be
Of romance
Adventure and horror....
Maybe old dreams
As it did before....
In the distance
I see the Trolls hiding
Laughing as they ran....
Even the rainbows
Touching the sands. ..
I've seen the walkways of money
My favorite latti,poured with honey....
I could fly through the sky
With my arms out stretched
Like a bird....
Or in a cave
Of darkness
With no way out....
Dreaming about going to school
With no pants
Being at a prom
When you couldn't even dance....
An island of dreams
Nobody wishes for....
As you drift off to sleep
Than step through that door....
I seen it happen
So many times before....
