if i
continue to write words
that warm hearts
enlighten souls
move spirits to dance
to my lyrical song

if i
give all that I have
to those in need
doing deed after deed
over a lifetime—expecting nothing
in return

Terry a O'Neal

to pick up shattered pieces of me
|
an indian summer
deep in the heart of texas,
tyler—
home where my daddy was born
sitting on some old woman’s porch
I remember yesteryears
and sad realities
that dropped by unannounced
and departed on a whim
without warning
they ask,
“what’s......Read More

upon my chest and weep
your soul into a deep,......Read More

You might as well

without choice—
a muted voice

color......Read More

Ceremony for the Dreamer
|
deep-seated dreams float
through the breeze with the dust
and leaves of the trees
Waiting for an old wise man to have and grab hold
from this day forward
till death do them
