Black Blood



From deep in the earth, to feed our life and growth...
Cover earth surface, roads, travel and build it both...
Help to make man richer, grow and even reach the stars...
Freedom you give, soon you will put our future behind bars...

Fuelling greed of money and wealth, you give more, and provide...
All from ancient life, animal, forests and more that died...
Turned to thick and sticky gue, some think to call black gold...
Black blood that drives our lives, at enormous price your sold...

Kill and smother all life in oceans, no fish can swim nor turn...
Thick black smoke where none can breath, if you start to burn...
Rising black lakes, kill plant and animal now, with those from long ago...
Blood of technology and human kind, kill life on earth, oh so slow...

Cry the Earth




In pain of greed and wanting more, more, more....
Cracking and braking its climate, wildlife all in gore...
The plague of man... Using, wasting and destroy...
This Eden... Garden... Earth... Its not a toy...

Our oceans deep, echo with the sounds of emptiness...
Where is the whale, dolphin and fish, swallowed in our abyss....
No more seagulls cry over the rotten carcass of a fisherman...
Bones white and dry in the desserts of ones where life began...

Storms and sharing earth, volcano ash before the sun...
All taken by you, for what... More money, more fun...
In the distance a un proud beast, stripped the rhino horn...
To feel a man you take what God has made so, to be born...

Air so heavy, you can not see, you can not breath...
More mines, more gold, more coal ..more!!! ..trees left without a leave...
Mother earth is crying, she can not take it no more...
Let us stop, look after what God has given you to adore...

Tears




Feelings to liquid it can turn...
Slowly, softly its paths to burn...
Cleaning all lands, plains from dry to wet...
Breaking the seed, growing what was to get...

Butterfly




Playing in the wind, my butterfly of love...
Adored by all, gentle as a baby dove...
From flower to flower, happiness to call...
Some want take you, to that place to fall...

Like stars glitter, crystal chandelier in the sun...
Web calling you to play, promise of fun...
Caught in sticky lines, tighter with every move...
Wings tearing, panic, moving you to a grove...

Darkness falls, brake spiders bite,... Butterfly!!!

Support and love from family, friends so deep...
Rip your wings, from spiders web that keep...
Found the strength, once never you thought...
Inside, happiness, peace no one can bought...

Again your beautiful wings, the world to show...
Suns bright rays make you strong, to grow...
To the Oriental garden, its beauty, you goes...
Butterfly of love, once again sip from life's rose...

Change




With sweaty palms and racing heart...
Not always willing, from the known to part...
New beginnings walking into that not known...
Will it be good?... Will it be accident-prown...

Most will never sit down at this table, to feast...
Like a child be scared, the new, like a beast...
Staying in a comfort zone,  always so save...
Missing all the turns, on the road that's pave...

Sharpen senses, from that zone to move...
Bring the new unexpected, to self it prove...
Learning, seeing, acting, growing the range...
Now at ease,  my heart, wanting change...

Clear days… of Summer




Fog roles back, wind dies down, all reveal…
Clear days feeding happiness, life souls meal…
Sun warming face and skin, deep inside rising temperature…
Seeing further, clearer what’s to come, my future…

A soft breeze awaken the senses to look for fun…
Pick up life’s pace, look there, come all let’s run…
Playing in waves of cool waters, feelings of love…
All together it brings new hope, cleaning waters from above…

This season that more enjoy in countries of South…
Clear days bring all, enjoy, play, by word of mouth…
Move to life and all possibilities that it can hold…
So we all love and grow, to what summer can unfold…

Travel the Road




Wheels keep moving, rolling, turning....
From deep inside life, always learning....
Outside many maps full of roads to travel....
Inside more roads, questions, clues to un-ravel....

More un-travelled paths to learn, to tar....
So to pave life's ways, make it easier by far....
With pot holes, bumps and turns not easy....
Learning to drive, to live, get so queasy....

With love growing for self from within....
Life's roads, easier and easier begin....
Happiness, switch on your, self GPS....
Never getting lost, hurrah!! success....

To say Goodbye



A thought, a deed that all regret....
Stay away from this, please forget....
Keep you in heart and mind forever....
Not to go or say goodbye is better....

Stopping time, keep you in the moment....
If only this reality was so easy to bent....
All good has to pass, you have to leave....
Broken heart, with time, it will forgive....

All slows down, as you have to move on....
Close my eyes, open and your gone....
Tears of remembering, my heart, I will try....
Let you leave, let you go ,say goodbye....

To Paper from Pen



From deep inside it brings to the surface....
Feelings to words that all have a purpose....
From days, months and years gone past....
Never spoken or said, this, not been fast....

From happiness to heart-ache, just want to live....
To every-body and only now, open can give....
Rises like the current, over flowing with joy....
Cleaning the closet, the heart and soul, no more toy....

Open to life, a new horizon, challenge await....
Is this planned, destiny, or is it fate....
Clearing of words, flowing to paper from pen....
To ears, eyes and hearts, what happens then....

Port Elizabeth


To you my city of smiles, I now will write….
Slumber in your beauty, soon away my flight….
You have changed me, made me positive….
From a deep sleep, awoken, now to live….

In every area, street a treasure awaits….
Cafés, Arts and Shops, all with little baits….
For visitors and all it’s begging to escape….
To a city, the jewel of the Eastern Cape….

Sun rising over the ocean, views money can’t pay….
You have the best Algoa, now Nelson Mandela Bay….
With the bustle of a city, but still a friendly heart….
Play of the ocean, beaches and beauty, hard to part….

The Friendly the Windy City, your name is so true…
But I know the days your smile, waters and sky so blue…
You feel to me like the city of life, of my birth….
To you I will soon return my city, Port Elizabeth….

Wind




With the voice of ghosts in mid of night....
You speak to soul and mind, with might....

Pulling on shirt and hair, jacket and skirt....
Swaying plants and trees, chasing leaves in flirt....


Inside the soul, stirring and clearing like a big rubber.....
Cleaning the soul, the land you make us feel to suffer....
The feel is bigger then taste, sound and sight....
What you do the power from inside, thats might.......


Not liked by many but needed by all......
To clean the land, the soul, we then can recall....
Feeling what blocked you, the mind and soul....
To again think clear, strive and reach that goal.....


Dying down and slowly sub dew, just playing around....
You never close by, but always somewhere to be found....
Please be here to let us know, when your not.....
We as earth need you to clean, but never forgot.....

Waves



From green, deep and cold....

To shore and land slowly unfold....

White hair in wind and storm....

In clear sun you come in any form....



So from within you clean the soul....

In sadness, anger or happiness, just roll....

Bing all that’s in and out, to shore....

Say, feel and do, so just pore....



Clean it all on rocks of ear and eye....

All that s been from days, years gone by....

Wash away all wrecks in waters deep....

Leaving waters clear, love to keep....

"NO"




No more mr. sorry, no more fear…..

Open eyes and mind to clear…..

Go the world ways of life, to live…..

Start the take and leave, the give….



One of heart and one in mind…..

Its all been to others and, to kind…..

Turn the ways that stood alone…..

Walk the road, take the zone…..



Selfish minds and pushing hart…..

Never give to thee that think their smart…..

Its all for me and that is so…..

Feel great and joy, just say no…..
