This traffic jam called life

this traffic jam Called life 

When I sit in the car contemplating my day ,

Replaying all my decisions in every way,

I sit with the car lights flashing in my face,

As the night greets me with a warm embrace,

I sit reflecting on today,

Remembering nothing changes in one day,

I try reflecting on my mistakes,

Knowing life’s a test and it’s full of aches,

I’m riding smoothly through this life,

rough patches sometimes happiness and strife,

This traffic jam seems so hard to navigate,

Knowing I’m trying to relate. 

Hero’s fight For all

Hero’s fight for all.

All the hero’s who were brave and true,
Fought there hardest to defend for you,
They took their life for others ,
Lost their families and lovers ,

They fight for all,
As they stand big and tall,
Their given a chance to change,
What the world wants to rearrange ,

They fell and the flew ,
Right up to god as the world grew,
They continue to rise and fight,
So you rest peacefully at night,

They fight to the end,
To make peace and amends.

Son and father

A Veterans Day poem.

Son and father

Every year I take my son ,
Down to your grave and tell him what you’ve done,
Not just you but what they did for our country,
And that he was a hero And how much he loves thee,

Our son never met you but the world did,
And we are safe cause of him heaven forbid,
I sit down next to you and we remember your dad,
And I know he would be glad,

To see you here,
Knowing the closeness is real,
And every year I take you down to see,
The hero that sacrificed his love for you and me.

Your presence is like the air

Dedicated to my dear friend Maddi 

When the air blows to my face ,

It’s like your far away warm embrace,

When the heat beams down on me,

Your the the warm breeze that shaded my face ,

The wind the blows through my hair,

Reminds me your always there,

And when I’m lonely at home with the fan,

It like your encouragement reminding me I can,

The air flows all around me,

Reminds me that your always with me ,

I feel the air and I know your there,

As it whispers I know you always care. 

Their not like you

They don’t understand me like you,

They don’t know how to make me laugh when I’m blue,

Their my friends but it’s different inside,

I admit it , I can’t hide,

The fact that we don’t connect like we do,

I know , maybe I’m saying this cause i really care about you,

But it feels different, like the vibe,

Like the connection from two different tribes,

Maybe because I miss you and knew you a long  time ,

I feel this way and I can write this rhyme,

But it’s different and I feel it,

But I won’t stop trying and I won’t quit . 

Follow the manual of your heart

There’s no book to mange life,

Just follow your heart and experience happiness and strife,

There’s no rules to a happy household,

Love yourself till the day your old,

There’s a book of emotions ,

And a book of devotion,

But there’s no book on how to live it right,

Live life from day to night,

Follow your heart follow your thoughts,

Play it carefully so you don’t get caught,

Follow the book of your heart,

Instead of living life falling apart. 

Your Voice

when something doesn't seem right,

and you know things cant change over night,

wait till the time comes to change the moment,

vote and change their minds as you own it,

and when one belief hits you hard,

and you cant change their mind and write a card,

you wait till the moment comes where you have a voice,

make the change its your choice,

you make think one voice cant change,

but you can certainly rearrange,

the opinions of others and those around you,

to vote and believe what you do.
