Just shooting the poop with Lori
He travels the world on the backs of others
Insignificant in his stature and size
His journey carries no mission
Randomly roaming at the will of his host
Sated enough to never question his trek
Life is an open adventure without worry
If the excitement of his dusty trail dulls
Another bus awaits to grant passage
With a furry friend to carry him home
Ah the wonderful life of a flea

The Bridge

A rickety wooden path of someone else’s making
Swings lazily in the breeze over the rivers edge
Buried in the hillside, a pulpit with views breathtaking
Inconsequential by design, camoflauged by God’s scenery
Conveyor of souls, hearts, and time, a melancholy ledge
Blended amidst the earthen sod, hidden in nature’s greenery
Stands the proverbial bridge, gateway to destinies beyond
Haven of all the heart’s desires, the lyrical voice of happiness
Life’s aqueduct, where never-ending dreams are spawned
Hope blooms hardy, and aspirations of youth are ravenous
Passageway of mythical tales, and fabled childhood yarns
Bridgeway to untrue castles, realm where reality seldom lingers
Skip the cobbled walkway of unicorns, and the prince of charms
Instead build the bridge of personal horizons, erect it sturdy and strong
Allow for a bit of fantasy to dwell, but give vision to the path ahead
We are the builders of our own bridge, where joy will find its own song
What lies beyond is of our making, and youthful dreams are all but fed
Through strength, character, and commitment, our sturdy bridge is built
A bridge built upon faith, family, and love, stretches long and wide
Assemble the rugged footholds, where hope is painted in golden gilt
The bridge calls us all by name, follow the path with courage as guide

The Lantern

Bear witness to the lantern’s flame, the beacon shall trumpet all by name
Kindred spirits shall be ignited, humanities torch shall be lighted
Of heart and soul, this radiant beacon, shall cause all hatred to weaken
Fueled by compassion and wisdom, the lighted orb seeks new vision
A glowing path of calm and reason, mankind’s united joyful season
Many voices lifted in harmony, kinship, the tool of golden armory
Of mind and spirit we all are one, the lantern shines for everyone
Vigilant is the cause illuminated, for all racism to be eliminated
Where darkness once resided, with lantern’s glow tranquility ignited
Guiding light to lands so cherished, love and hope shall ever flourish
Of all the stars in the heavens, compassion and truth the greatest of weapons
This Lantern’s embers, bold and bright, shall cast indifference aside
Kindled hearts shall blaze again, resilient flame of kindness reigns
Empathy, the resounding song shall serenade, as we celebrate a better fate
Benevolence and charity so embraced, tolerance and mercy by lantern graced
May the flame of dignity and respect, be the goodness and light we reflect
Bear witness to the lantern’s flame, the beacon shall trumpet all by name
