Color Bloom

Aloha,

Writers try to be as colorful as possible, but sometimes it is just a matter of "timing." It is very important to keep a journal and write EVERYDAY so you can continually surprise yourself with little "discoveries." Then you will be pleasantly surprised when a piece of your writing comes into a full "color bloom," like a Bird of Paradise. I made my "discovery" of this little guy at just the right "time."         Enjoy!

                       The Heart of the View

The moment you soared you were one of the few

With a joy so contagious your smile into view

Clearly outrageous so much life left to do

You blast and you jump into the heart of the view

Restless hearts talk and promises before sailing the blue 

So questless a start for a passionate few

Set sail keeping only uncharted water in view

Confiding in someone special like you

Out there in the heart of the view 

Do your part see your way through 

Wide worlds may wonder as you sail on the blue 

Of heart's little thunder in the heart of the view  

Down deep inside is your heart of a dream

That's the part of your story it's what makes you scream

It's the heart of the matter it's what makes you "you"

As you blast and you jump into the heart of the view

                         Just Now

A little lateral thinking, collateral drain

Couldn't we endure just a little more pain

Would you please leap, just a little sideways

A little outside of your, ingrained byways

As you pattern my image, spatter my spinach

Hey buddy does it really matter, my vintage?

Oh please don't simplify

I like those, complicated eyes

Someday I'll realize, how you...

Looked at me just now

There it is again, never knew where or when

But until then, I will endure and abide, somehow

Forever and a day, how you...

Looked at me just now

Surrealistic realism, bridges the schism

As you start to continue, you chisel my heart

I'll remember forever, and from now

When my last breath takes a bow, how you...

Looked at me just now

Hey buddy can you spare a dime?

Well OK maybe next time

Can you chime in later with some chow?

And then only then I may know, I'll make that show

On how you... looked at me, Just Now

                           Charm Yourself 

So warm in your way, so charming your day

Are we really talking global?

No harm to say yes, they swarm I must confess

I must say, we do pay, day in and day out

What's that you say, expect and convey, a drought

Charm yourself out

Something out there, holds this thing together

So slight and fluffy, just like a feather

How is your father's father? And, what did Mother say?

Sooner or later, there's gonna' be love to pay

Nature will have her say, in this there can be no doubt, so

Charm yourself out

Comes a new day, let's all get together in our own way

By the way, how's the weather? Sonny, what's that you say? 

Sunny and warm, that's what they say

The upcoming trend, just around the bend

Brings a new day, more on its way

Hey! I figured it out, here's what it's all about

Charm yourself out
