I write

I write

when it makes no sense...

when I have something to say

or nothing to say

not to keep up

compete

or contend for the highest honor

but to be heard by that one whose life will change

because of some random  thoughts that I had the audacity to put on paper

while sitting on a rock on a Sunday afternoon

watching the sailboats passing by

never knowing what my words will mean to someone else

so I write every chance I get

because her life may depend upon my ink.

Remote…

IF I could control my life with a remote…

I would turn back the time and erase all of the haunting memories that worry my soul

and turn on all of the colors of the world that would shine brightly throughout the day

lighting the stars at night in tune with the music of the moon.

If I could control my life with a remote…I would turn off every voice of indifference,

every act of violence,

and all hypocrisy, sickness, pollution and greed.

If i could control my life with a remote…there would be only You and me.
