Hearts Hearts are home, family, friends that haven’t met yet When you realize opportunity has met preparation The joy when you win, but don’t remember your bet All of the simplest things with the greatest relation Hearts are the goodness that we all carry deep within Random acts of kindness, a gentle word, opened door […]
A Price Too Heavy
I hear you say your life has been harsh, cruel and so unfair Everybody’s got it in or out for you, can no one really care Yet when you walk down your street, the one most familiar All the people, everyone you pass or meet, just stop to stare I don’t see where LOSER […]
