For Kitty Shell
On this day
I Give thee a plant
in a silly way
in a silly hat
|
Call me “crazy”
or “weirdo” if you prefer
but call me, please
to your leisure I defer
|
For not just a plant
but my future to thee I offer
for in it, without you
lies only a tear-filled blur
|
Faults, I have plenty
but with you, progress
with time, I Know
I’ll bug you less!
|
In rhyme I can say
what in text I cannot
though mortal words,
still miss the Spot
|
A poet I am
a lover of words I am not
they lack the True meaning
in what you, I’ve got!!
|
A writer, you’ve got
but can’t you see?
without you in my Life
there’s little point in it, for me!
|
With you I flourish
I’m growing a lot
will you Share in my Future
‘til we’re filling our plots?
|
No more than You I want
to be there when I fall
nothing I’d like more
then to catch you , before you…
stumble!
|
See what I mean?
Even rhyme can’t express
how much “wo ai ni”
with any accurateness!
|
Through a rhyme
or in words, plain
it cannot be described
how much I ache when you’re in pain
|
What I’d like to try
is to see you smile every day
I’ll exclaim, “There she is!”
and Know all else, will be okay!
|
There’s nothing more Healing
than True Love, when shared
YahWeh’s example to us all
For Their Son They did Bare
|
So much Joy
in all Life to be found
with You, side by side!
To the Stars we’ll be bound!
|
Sharing with you
every down, every up
Sorry, but I am
that Love struck pup!
|
but I offer you space
and what future is mine
to share in the Home
that You Design!!!
|
So my proposal
however feeble it may be
is to Grow this plant with you
for Time and Eternity!!!!
|
Will you marry me?

I am a Writer and Poet, Construction Worker with a Union, would be Organic Farmer, Son, Brother, Cousin, Friend, and a few others. I would like to add a few more; Husband, father, .... the list will grow!
I am currently working on personal growth, publishing my first book, becoming a Journeyman in the Carpenters Union, learning more of Gardening and Green things, and embracing Life as it comes! Life and Love are only as easy as we allow them to be, but are ever present, when we are ready to embrace them!
Time is a tricky, devious thing, and Life is never easy. Nor should it be, the challenge is how we grow! While ever developing mentally and Spiritually over the last decade, The "obstacles to progress" are morphing into challenges to be met, and are ever changing. Such is the amazing Wonder that is Life, as we Learn, as we Grow!
Too much structure is at the very heart of institutionalization, and not enough is the path to chaos. Learning that balance I believe is a Life-long challenge. One of many, as balance(s) is(are) ever changing too!
All the while (and, as we ALL are...), I am, have been, and continue to be, so very Blessed!! Divine Providence, the "Finger of God", or even a reference to "Footprints"; all and more apply! The Energy of Life is all around us! Creating, Energizing, Healing, Invigorating! Life feeds the Energy of Life! Call It/Them how/by/what you will... Their presence and influence in and upon my Life has been amazing, and I could not, and would not, be who or where I am (NONE of us would/could be), without Them! Divine Providence, Creators/Masters of the multi-verse, the Spark of Life, the Energy that Nourishes, Higher Power, whatever/however you so choose to acknowledge our own smallness in the Universe! Without Their Love, Their Guidance, we are lost. We are sick, we are incomplete, when we lack the Faith to Heal and be Whole!
I am growing, and Healing, and Learning, and am greatly in need thereof. But I AM growing, and Healing, and Learning! And so the Light "at the end of the tunnel" Shines ever bright! And Day by Day, I struggle, to be better than I was the day before, and to be prepared to be even better tomorrow! Hallelujah!
Aloha! Namaste! As-Salàmu Àlaykum! Peace!
