  • “The Story Of Beautiful Light” – Poetry

    There once was a beautiful light, Sent down from the greatest of heights. Those below saw it all, And they sniffed and guffawed! But the light was still burning and bright.   This gift that was sent from above, In kindness and gentlest love – And they giggled and scorned, At the colors unborn –…

    “Decisions”

    Blood ties revealed, An ounce of truth to prove the farce. Neither path desired. Choices forced – what freedom is that? Beyond the dubious smile, Lies a most infamous heart.
