Anger

can you see it in my eyes as I stand here watching you come into my home and take from me.

I am a Lion and I rule the jungle and I am not afraid of what you may think will protect you from me.

My eyes show the fire that burns inside me when you think I am just someone who will stand by and let you destroy things dear to me.

I was not born to let you walk all over me and think that one day I won’t bounce back and pounce on you.

I don’t regret any of the things I have done for it is in my nature to sense when danger or fools are on my land.

I do my best to behave but, there is only so much I can take and when I’m ready and have made up my mind there is no turning back and as you cry out no one will save you from me.

I will think little of you when you are gone and soon the earth will break down your remains and you will be forgotten as the next meal becomes available to me.

Why the Sun is

Splendid a thousand times over

It’s beautifully bright and it has the ability to

Create sunsets and sunrise.

And the ability to take your breath away, and

When the red sun comes around everyone wants

To stay up or get up early to see it and if lucky take a picture of it.

The sun is something we learn about and study for we need to understand it.

The sun can be great help when taking a photo and you want that natural lighting.

It brings light into your dark mornings of getting up early for

Work or it just shines into your room when you needed some light in your life.

The sun is splendid and just something to look forward to every day and always puts a smile on my face.

I’ll keep enjoying the sun a thousand times more each and everyday, week and month.

Poetry

Beauty come back to me!

What started off so beautiful as the sunset

quickly turned so dark, and I couldn’t stop myself from walking right into the quicksand.

Soon it was dragging me down.

How did  I get so far away from  that beauty I once got so blinded by.

On a journey all on my own, I can’t let the darkness slip in through the

cracks of my life anymore.

So beauty when your ready to come back I will be waiting with  my lights on.

Water

Sometimes water can reflect what you see in the world.

And  sometimes water is still

and your memorized by the perfection of its clear stillness.

Stuck in the moment of seeing the real beauty underneath.

Which may be rocks or fish and suddenly the water is alive.

And you love looking at it every moment you get before time speeds up and you must move on.

Leaving behind the stillness of that water and piece of yourself to shine another day.

As that water shows its calmness and beauty for all to see.

Just know you helped that water grow when you accepted it that day.
