Halloween

All hallows eve comes but once a year
A time of whispers and sometimes fear
When veils are thinnest we must beware
Since spirits walk the world without care
When a vacant soul is easily caught
With malevolence in a fiendish plot
But the good can also often break through
To mingle on earth with those they knew
But best of all for those who dare
Are the treats accorded to masks most fair

Skyward

We've grown wings
To best the sky
We've found ways
To soar up, up high

No earth-bound life
For you or me
We've got the science
And now the technology

But with the freedom
Comes the cost
Can we afford to pay
For what we've lost?

Clouds

Staring down at the clouds
From way up high above
That's where we find assurance
Of a higher form of love
With the falling of brilliant light
On the cotton-y clumps of wisp
We can see heaven's reflection
Through the masses of gathered mist

Another week

Cold and gloomy day
With rain falling on the ground
Another Monday dawns
As we drag ourselves around

@YVR

Waiting here on tenterhooks
To find out if we fly
Just too much fun to be had
Watching the world go by
Now we get to the other side
A new world to be seen
We'll whet our palates for a while
In a land both lush and green

No wonder!

When the secret is revealed
When the scales fall from your eyes
It's the dawn of understanding
Of the stress behind the sighs

Now we can move forward
And help our little bird
Knowing is half the battle
We want her voice to be heard

TIIIIRRREEED

Fatigue is a creeping villain
Who steals into your soul
And robs you of your energy
Stopping you at your goal

No easy way to recover
When this thief works his lie
Except to accept the intrusion
Or curl up in bed and die  

Epic

When food is plenty the mind races
To lands of gluttony where the only rule
Is to mix together the most decadent gruel
A wasteful combo of fats and grease
To stuff our faces with more than we need
All to satisfy our first-world greed

Week's end

Here we are we've reached the end of another week
The next two days will be our time to rest and seek
All those delights we've held at bay
Since during the week, we've no time to play


Happy Friday! :)

Broke

Living large is what we like
But here we are falling behind
Our pocket books empty
Our vaults run dry
It's all our own fault
So we cannot cry
