Poetic musings
Grounded in truth
Connected to your essence
Divine by nature
Completion the goal
Magnifying glass, focus
Tunnel to the light
Fabricated reality
muted dreams
mouth sewed with
black thread
so caught up in routine
you’re dead
Doubt the assassin
Capped potential
in the masses
Talent transcends
social classes.
Take ownership
break the social
script
because life goes by
too quick
just flow with it
Chase your destiny
defeat monotony
fulfill your purpose
be a whole person
awaken
in this life
not the next
breathe
give it your best.
Sinatra Sunday
Coffee brews inspiration
Strangers in moonlight
If hearts
could sing
it would sound
like her
seamlessly going
through the highs
and lows
velvet sound
notes like tear
drops, but in
command
bouncing on
the scale
speaking a language
you can’t understand
universal love
whispers that
break glass
cries that fill
the blackholes
of the universe.
But maybe
its like his
pain and strain
yet beautifully
dancing in the rain
truth, every emotion
it’s own hue
reflection of where
your thoughts roam
warm home
tenderness of the soul
Dedicated to all my fellow teachers, who work hard. Don’t get recognized as they should and live in an era where we face constant scrutiny. We fight the good fight. Justice for the Newark 7!!
Teach to reach new heights
Minds ignited, powerful
strength, patience, wisdom
My cry into
the world, my
vision to leave it
better than before.
People paint
with the color of
their dreams.
things are
what they seem
Everyone living in
harmony
Love
descending from
the trees
Streets lined,
with mobile libraries.
Knowledge sought
everything free
And poetry
poetry
poetry
sheet music
to every scene.
Intuned with
the world
soul ready
to soar
No longer
walking the
tight rope
feet grounded
Signs like
constellation stars
map to destiny
to be revealed
Thoughts clear
anticipating a
bright future
that’s near
Find my inner peace
Climb a sky kissing mountain
Only new heights to reach
Divine source finds me
Protective embrace, asleep
Nourishing my soul
