Beats and Tunes

Do you hear the sounds?The music playing? The notes of life,Uniquely arranging? The city speaks.It beats and moves.It sings it’s songs,Some rock, some blues. Some house, some rap,And country too.Each place you go,Hums it’s own tune. Each person too,Has their own beat.A note they play,A way they speak. What’s your voice like?How do you sing?Are …

Don’t Crash

You may be able to work very hard, at a very fast rate. But like a race car that spins out of control, too much speed can be disastrous. For this reason I’ve found it best to work at quick yet steady rate. Heavy emphasis on steady movement rather that speed. Even though I may …

Intuition

I am sporadic,There’s no schedule with me.One moment you see me,Next, I’m nowhere to be seen. Fortune-tellers and mystics,Have a hard time deducing,Of the many paths before me,Which one I’ll be choosing. In the morning I rise,With an outline of the day.But plans can be altered,And outlines can be changed. The butterfly alone,Doesn’t dictate it’s …

Red Lights and Stop Signs

Red lights and stop signs,Get in our way.It’s true they protect us,But they do cause delay. Life offers red lights,Stop signs and road blocks.Dead ends and potholes,Life’s sometimes a bit much. In life as in driving,Red lights, they protect us.And a dead end may stop us,From something that wrecks us. Honor the speed limit,And reach …

Each branch contributes to the tree by supporting smaller branches, providing fruit and growing leaves. Each branch also relies on the tree as a whole to receive water and nutrients amongst other things. Some branches …

If Life Was A Video Game

If life was really just one super immersive video game, then I think death would make a lot of sense. Everyone needs to step away from the screen and rest their eyes from time to time.

Keep A Nice Closet

The best closets are the ones in which you can reach in at random, pull out any outfit, and be comfortable wearing that outfit in public.

Put Pen to Paper

It’s nice to look back,And see what you wrote.Remember your words,Revisit what you spoke. Writing is fun.It helps us let go.Helps allow clearness,Review what we know. I began writing,Just journaling thoughts,Jotting on a notebook,With little cause. I guess writing grew,Grew upon me.It grew grew and grew,Grew like a tree. I suggest writing,To any and all,Regardless …

Imagine

I like to think.I like to think broadly.In so many ways.My minds full of parties. I like to think,With symbol and story.Thinking this way,Never gets boring. I like to think,String thoughts together,Get them to rhyme,Make them sound clever. I like to think,Paint illustrations,In my mind’s eye,Vivid creations. Colors and shades,A palette of hues,Color your mind,With …
