My Response To Some Jealous Knotheads
I can write a love poem
drive an 18 wheel truck
I'm a stick in the mud
that don't get stuck
yet someone came along
and questioned my manhood
I can operate
heavy machinery
got Bachelor's Degree
in Psychology
I don't see it as a weakness
to try and treat people good
I'm a gentle man
til you make me mad
then you better watch out
cause you might be had
I draw a line in the sand
for what I think is right
I've got an easy
going personality
what you get
is what you see
And I'd rather make love
than get into a fight.
I got real tired
of pushing a pen
so I got out and
started over again
I can do nearly anything
that I want to do
So you boys that
can't rope or ride
don't come along
poking me in my side
cause to tell you the truth
I've had about enough of you.
It's hard for me to sleep at night
cause I see see so much wrong
and so little right
I help out anywhere
and anyway I can
And just because
I like I write
songs of love
into the night
doesn't take one thing
from me
being a man.

The Kiss- A Six Haiku Wrie
Gently kissing you
the salty taste of your lips
my soul is tingling
I feel you heaving
your breathing becomes hotter
pressing against me
Matching kisses now;
my fingers touching your cheeks,
exploring your face.
You move to my touch;
I can feel your excitement,
rising to my own.
Melting into you;
sliding my hand down your back,
pulling you closer.
This moment of love;
of giving and receiving,
is ours forever.

The Poet
And now the song writes itself
again
it seems the poet finds that he can't
win
Hopes someday the teardrops leave his
eyes
hopes that no one hears him when he
cries.
Every night and day he writes away in
pain
writing the same song over
again
even though the words aren't quite the
same
the feelings that he gives them still
remain
Finally he calls it another
night
hopes that someday maybe he'll get it
right
the loneliness that dwells within his
heart
will turn into a song when the writing
starts.
and for now the song writes itself
again
so the poet reaches for his
pen
another song to break his heart
into
it's the only thing the poet knows to
do

Secret Love
Lost within the shadows
of a love that goes unshown,
crying out in the darkness
"Let your love be known!"
Secret love cannot survive
nor can dreams ever come true
when hidden from the world to see
somewhere deep inside of you.
For now that love lies hidden,
lying deep within it's shell,
covered by the silence,
within it's secret Hell.

Come To Me When You're Hurting
She said
"Come to when you're hurting,
Baby,
let me be your friend.
When this world
knocks you down,
come and take my hand.
You'll never have be alone
darling,
I am here to the end.
Come to me when you're hurting
Baby,
let me be your friend.
I never noticed
the way she laughed,
at the bad jokes that I'd tell.
I never knew
she ever thought about me,
til the day that I fell.
She picked me up,
and brushed away
the teardrops from my eyes.
The next words
that she had to say,
took me by surprise.
She said
"Come to when you're hurting
Baby,
let me be your friend.
When this world
knocks you down,
come and take my hand.
You'll never have be alone
darling,
I am here to the end.
Come to me when you're hurting
Baby,
let me be your friend.
Now there is no way
I could ever repay,
for all that she does for me.
I'm kinda wild
like a little child,
and she lets me run free.
I got into trouble
she was there on the double,
smiling tenderly.
She just shook her head
and then she said
these loving words to me.
She said
Come to when you're hurting
Baby,
let me be your friend.
When this world
knocks you down,
come and take my hand.
You'll never have be alone
darling,
I am here to the end.
Come to me when you're hurting
Baby,
let me be your friend. RC

The Fire
She knows of the fire
this passion burning within
for she has felt it
It haunts her very soul
and she cannot forget it
he will not let her
she will not let him
it burns eternal for her
and for her alone
a passionate fire
burning eternal for her
in life after life
she need run no more
for there is nothing to fear
come to your lover
with arms open wide
slip into a profound love
and burning desire RC

Why I Stopped Drinking-Reason # 324
I used to stop at the Dew Drop Tavern
after work for some ice cold beer
win and lose a few games of pool
an evening of laughter and cheer
Everything's great up to the point
that the alcohol level gets too high
I would get to thinking that I'm bad
that's when the fists begin to fly
One night I got loaded and mean
and I stood up on my chair
filled with liquid courage I yelled
"I can whoop any woman here!"
A hush fell over the tavern
Betty Sue stepped up to the bar
my courage flew out the window
I knew I had gone too far
"I aint scared of you!" I lied
She knocked me down to the floor
she stomped on me a hundred times
and then stomped on me some more
The police finally came and saved me
I was glad to get into that jail
I was battered and bruised the next day
When Betty Sue came and posted my bail
Life can be funny and twisted
I learned something that night
just because a woman is pretty and petite
doesn't mean she can't and won't fight.
Those days are long behind me now
the fights , the music and the beer
The Dew Drop Tavern sign still says "Open"
and "Y'All Come Back Now...Hear?"

Renewed-A Haiku Chain
I went to a place
somewhere deep within my soul
in quiet respite
a muted release
of an ocean of tumult
and raging anger
much aimed at myself
for losing my composure
and my thoughtless acts
people are people
I forgot human nature
left myself open
and primed for trouble
thinking only with my heart
the blame rests with me
and in the silence
the answers flow like water
filling my conscience
The anger released
and in it's place confidence
restored and renewed
also forgiveness
for myself and for others
and a lesson learned
I went there a man
and I left that place a man
a far stronger man. RC
