 Poetry is thoughts that breathe, and words that burn. ~Thomas Gray Poetry is not always words. ~Audrey Foris Genuine poetry can communicate before it is understood. ~T.S. Eliott A multi talented fella Almost everything he did in my eyes deserved an award He’s the type that could give a teacher teaching lessons Show A gardener how to garden Show an artist how it should look Tell A musician how it should sound Give A comedian funnier jokes Show an entertainer how to please a crowd The type to cure the doctors illness and analyze the therapist Yup, My “Pop pop” Richard L. Matthews I can’t count the times I was wrong And he was still my defendant The things he taught me that I will never forget The jokes we could tell over and over That on my most dreary day, make me laugh Until I think of that day February 24th When he left and became nothing but a sweet memory in my head and something forced to hold dear in my heart ….When that o so sunny Monday turned cloudy Not dark ...just cloudy. with confusion but they was just enough space through the clouds to see the sky ... that holds heaven where he is now free of pain free of fear free of pity So i smiled as my family wept and whaled ... then kissed him on his cold cheek and spoke the heart- wrenching sentence that could never be a lie. i love you pop pop and I'll miss you.

My Ode To Music 



My love The time we spend is o so special So sacred So mesmerizing The Sound of your voice causes a rush through my body A chill up my spine Gives my goosebumps goose bumbs You make my liver quiver And give my heart butterflies  You brought me out of dark places To be in your magical world Who would think something that’s recreated Every few seconds could be still be so new So tantalizing So life changing So thought provoking Soooooooooooooooooo melodic …. Music I love you
