Emerging Light
Do you see it?
the dying light of our generation
the dimming beacon of what was once brilliant
but under the dying light
a new color arises
whose colors are more splendid than the last
So now do you see it?
the new light that will surpass our own
and lead us through the eons
Two Problems
No! Say the Republicans
Never! Say the Democrats
Obama pleads, c'mon guys
But ignorance cries, "shut up"
The people shout, "hurry"
The country is sick
No, Justice is weak! Says Ignorance
"Ignorance is evil", states Justice
But both are wrong
Calm
She sat silently
humming softly
her red dress a contrast to her pale skin
Looking small in the large chair
staring at the front desk
waiting for the nurse to tell her about her mother
she looked as if seeing through another world
ignorant of the severity of her situation
yet she sat calmly waiting
for her mother
Soft Thunder
Into the sky the lighting strikes
its vibrant light beckons you to stare
its roaring thunder turns you away
but do not fear thunder and lighting
for its harsh sounds make good company in the night
and its brilliant light a reminder of nature's splender
