Politician

A lilting voice is heard,  lulled by a fragrant veil

sleep is feigned, over the eyes you cast your spell

Truth relinquished, replaced with self serving pride

Your words dulled, the once sparkle put aside

Misleading rhetoric, slips away into dusk

Night falls, leaving darkness without trust



Heaven on Earth

There you are, and here am I
shades of tawny reds flood the sky

From night to day, from early dusk
the air turns crimson then to rust

I’ll plead your good byes, and ask you to stay
don’t look back, and never fade away

Look to the sky, where clouds are in bloom
lost in the heavens, pink fills this room

Bright are the colors,  a glad soul pristine
always there, waiting to be seen
