I watch you smile
In your sleep.
What secrets do
Your dreams so keep?
Will the joyfulness
Your rest bestowed
Remain when you see
Your car’s been towed?

Jack Frost Won’t Nip Your Nose Anymore
Chestnut’s roasting
On an open fire,
But you know all about that.
What I don’t know
Is why you thought
Chestnut was a good name for a cat.

Giver and Reciever
Bouquet of flowers
Delivered to me.
No name on the card,
And no giver I see.
I’m but an inpatient
At the amnesiac’s ward.
Sending stuff to myself
Is it’s own reward.
Follow Your Star
Follow your star
Wherever it leads.
Reap the fruits of desire
With your dreams as the seeds.
Follow your star
To your destiny’s stage.
Embrace life’s uniqueness,
Serenity, rage.
Follow your star
Into infinite space.
I just hope that it leads you
Far away from my face.

Lady in Blue
I remember back in high school
When I met a girl at work.
She was dressed in blue and shined like the sun
And never dated jerks.
One might say I bought her love
With accessories and trinkets,
But I fashioned up a love contract
And my name, well, I did ink it.
Now every time I drive to work
She’s with me all the time.
In the darkness she’s a flash of light.
In my poems, she’s my ryhme.
And sometimes we run of of gas,
If you know what I mean.
She waits for me while I fill a can
And polishes her sheen.
So if you disagree with the idea
Of marrying an object, tough luck.
Because I will always be faithful
To my lady in blue, my truck.
