New Year's Journey


Your journey starts with just one step.
Which direction's up to you.
Moving forward is the goal.
To your heart stay true.

The New Year Begins
Time to evaluate friends
Lovers, hopes and dreams.

Time for reflection.
Life takes on new direction.
Take a step forward.
Open up your heart.
Make changes that last.

An odyssey, An experience 
your own special journey
starts with just one step.
Which direction's up to you.
Moving forward is the goal.
To your heart stay true.

No, No, No

No, No, NO
I don't want to go
I don't want to move
I said NO!

No, No, No
not that sound again
I just went to bed
it's just in my head.


No, No, NO
I don't want to go
I don't want to move
I said NO!

No, No, No
it can't be time to go
why is it so early
did the night just hurry?


No, No, NO
I don't want to go
I don't want to move
I said NO!

No, No, No
morning's here again
early's not my friend
does it ever end?


No, No, NO
I don't want to go
I don't want to move
I said NO!

No, No, No
guess I have to go
better work than no
glad I've some place to go

Holiday Season is Through

Bring the wreath in off the door
Christmas and Epiphany are no more
Hanukkah, Kwanzaa and Diwali  too
All the holiday's of the season are through

Discarded reminders are all that remain
Pin carcasses, ripped wrappings
torn tinsel and all the trappings
All that the Holidays once contained

Alarms have been set and schedules made
All of the holiday games have been played
early hours back to the grind
Holidays no longer fill our mind

The days will go quickly
The nights will run fast
We'll wonder at the speed of it all
Winter, Spring, Summer, Fall
Holidays will return in no time.

Epiphany (January 2012)


Crossing the globe
on a journey far
A quest to reach a shining star

The road is rough
is long, is tough

You think of turning back
Seek the courage you lack
Go forward on your path

At trials and tribulations
doubts and insecurities
 simply laugh


The road is rough
is long, is tough

You must travel far
It's worth the trip

"I'm giving up"
Should never 
enter your thoughts 
or cross your lips


The road is rough
is long, is tough


As if by magic
the star appears

An Epiphany
The Epiphany
Your Epiphany
is here.

Morning Hour

I set the alarm just to see
If I could jog my memory
on the early morning hour

As I recall it's very dark
this time of day is far to dark
I don't know about this hour

Time for work to begin again
To not be productive seems a sin
Come on get moving you've got the power


I set the alarm just to see
If I could jog my memory
on the early morning hour

Luckily for me my time's not up
Next week is plenty of time for this stuff
I am returning to bed for at least an hour

Day Two

It's still the new year but now
we start to think of all our vows.
Reality of work comes in to play.
It's beginning to be just another day

We want the holiday feelings to stay
but to our dismay reality sets in again.
Familiar faces fade into old friends.
It's beginning to be just another day.

The first day is over
We are on to day two
Reality and responsibility
return to you
Happiness and good cheer
Fade away for the year
Life as usual is here.

It's beginning to be just another day
But my friend it doesn't have to be this way.
Create your own reality
Let happiness return to thee
Embrace a true identity
That simply let's you be.

The New Year

Unspoiled, Untouched, Untrodden
The path is completely new
Do with it the best
that you are able to do

Unspoiled, Untouched, Untrodden
This is not familiar ground
The voices of negativity
cannot utter a sound

Unspoiled, Untouched, Untrodden
Reach out and take your chance
Allow yourself the opportunity
For your mind and soul to advance

Unspoiled, Untouched, Untrodden
Unique and original too
What you choose to do
is completely up to you


Unspoiled, Untouched, Untrodden
A path that's completely new
Do with it the best
that you are able to do
