Walls That Bridge
I was emotionally stressed
The hurricane had blown through
Left destruction in its wake
My plans were all a mess
Then I looked- where were you?
Oh yes, I’d taken you down
To protect you from the storm
The walls were barren of your image
John, eventually had to admit
I was mentally distraught and forlorn
It wasn’t until nature’s fury
Days past and clean up ensuing
That I decided to replace
All that was blank
A lift in my spirits pursuing
And I thought that was so silly John
Simply re-hanging pictures of you
That it could alleviate the depression
The despair of all that had occurred
Reversing what that hurricane made me do

Where Love Happens
You set me off kilter
You set me out of bounds
I can’t seem to balance
Whenever you’re around
I want to be so silly
Kiss you and hold your hand
I can’t fight this feeling
I’m in love with a brown-eyed handsome man
You make my head all a swirl
Thoughts of lust I can’t control
This wasn’t my intention
I‘m in love and feel thirteen years old
I wasn’t planning on this chance
I don’t know what to do
Loving you, the romance
What’s next? I haven’t a
clue
So please forgive my blushing
When you know you are the cause
I need you in my life my love
No more do I idly pause
No more to hide the love away
My feelings I have to show
For you I’ve tried in vain
I will no longer stem passion’s flow
Though not poetry for the ages
By no stretch am I a master of verse
Yet know the love is honest
That comes to you across our universe
