LOVE ME FREE

                                         Love me free

              Not because of my hair

                                                                 or the way I talk

                                          Love me free

            Not  because of the car I drive

                                                                  or the way I walk

              Not because of the way I wear my clothes

                                                                  or what I may represent

                                     I have a heart

                                            Love me free

               Because of the way I think

                                                                  and the things that make me smile

           Because of the things that matter to me

                                                          and the condition of my heart

                                       Love me free

                Because you think of me

                                                                     and feel me in your sleep

                                                     Love me free

                In a way that never hurts

                                                  Love me free

  Don'tholdbackDon'tcountDon'tmeasure

                                                   just Free

(a hungry metaphor)     

  I've been sitting here with my bib on

 waiting to be fed

Grade AAAA blue ribbon winning

( kobe) prime rib, medium rare

mouth watering melting like butter on my palette

knife and fork in hand

But, if I can't get that

I'll take some pork, lamb or chicken

or something ground up

and glued back together again

Or how about some conch salad

spicy with red hot peppers

spiny lobster tempura, raw oysters

or beluga caviar served with sour cream 

But, if I can't get that

I'll settle for krab salad

deviled eggs or canned sardines

Just a helping of peach and mango cobbler with a drop of rum

or a taste of praline caramel banana gelato

yum yum

But if I can't have that

I'll settle for some vanilla wafers

some grape now or laters twizzlers

or a piece of chewing gum.

JUST FEED ME!

Best Mom, best Nana, best Friend

Always an angel, finally got your wings

I miss you now, but I know I'll see you later

 Can you guess that I love gardening

I took these with my cell phone camera

Sometimes the heart sees what is  invisible to the eye.

Your shoes

Call me a fool

but I just wanna be you

I wanna wear your shoes

I wanna take your licks

I wanna cry sometimes at night because I'm afraid

I'll even be confused, if that's what it takes

Let me keep your secrets, let me carry your pain

Let me have your migraine

Let me be the one who can't sleep at night

and all day can't stay awake

Let me be the one who worries until my stomach aches

I wanna be the one who struggles to concentrate

Everything; dispare, abandonment, fear

sadness, self hate

I wish, I wish, I wish I could say to you

sit down, take a load off, it's my turn

now you take a break

You see, I been around for a while now

and, mostly I meant it when I smiled

I've had my ups and downs

and, I've made it this far

I survived adolesence, teens, school

parents (whew!), the army, marriage

infants, and day care

No matter if they're two sizes too small

too big, or just right

If they're ran over to one side

holey, dirty, or out of style

Even if they're soaking wet

Take them off, give them to me

let me walk in your steps

Promise me a few things

You won't give up, you'll keep praying

you'll protect and watch over me.  

(yeah, i said it!  smiles)
