Twenty years of being taught, and twenty more of...

Looking past

A ribbon of black
smooth and cold
the sheer rock walls
and a twisting path

dark lies the clouds
that be for me lie
and the golden warmth
left so far behind

I know not where
which way to go
and the memories fade
of what lays...

Emotional Breakdown

It's been so many years ago since the pain began. Everyday it feels like the first time all over again. I always thought things would never change. Till the lord came and took our rock away. I remember it all so clear, my fathers time was coming...

Job the wise and Bible

In ancient scrolls, the tales unfurl,
Of faith and trials that make souls swirl.
Within the pages of the sacred tome,
Lies the epic saga of Job's home.

In lands of old, where faith was tried,
A righteous man stood, undenied.
Job, the...

PRAYERS OF A VET

God help me forget my yesterday
Help me to remember how to pray
God I'm there fighting them still
Peace never quite seems real

 I fear the sounds as rounds go off
I smell the smoke and start to cough
God here I am on my...

Country Pride

Dolly Parton … lay some of that country wisdom on me.
9-to-5 was a rough one; but a history maker.
My favorite song of yours was your first one, Coat of Many Colors.
I am an artist too.

Enjoy Life

There’s a vanity that takes place,
Righteous people with wicked deeds;
Considered a sinful disgrace,
Becoming greedy in their needs.

I said that this is vanity,
That compliments joy in life;
Sometimes causing insanity,
Possibly resulting in...

DIAMONDS

DIAMONDS
by Daniel Mayon 5/23/2024

They lay in wait all around a capacious sphere
Inviting hearts to view and/or peer.
Possibly imagining pure bounty here,
When subsequently a mind masters fear,
As intimacy increases his failing tears,
Be...

Elegy of Mind

In the earth's embrace, where waters flow,
Lies humble mud, where seeds bestow,
A cradle for life, where roots entwine,
In its earthly depths, secrets divine.

Beneath the sun's warm, nurturing gaze,
Mud transforms in nature's maze,
From mire...

My hidden inner thoughts

My Aggravation is buried deep down
My Sorrows bury them,so they don't make a sound
One day my sorrows will cease
But that makes me fear who I'll be
If there is no pain and sadness to bury my anger and madness
Then their isn't any hope for this

Speak

How many poems did you trash,
delete, or second guess?
Words have meaning,
They hold power,
To shape and mold,
To think and unfold,
Do not be reckless in what you speak,
For there is power in your...
