Two Beautiful Souls

Two Beautiful Souls

By Lord R.e. Taylor

No matter the distance

No matter the differences

Two beautiful souls will find each other

And they will become one

Hello To Your Ghosts

Hello To Your Ghosts

By Lord R.e. Taylor

I have known many ghosts

Most were friendly

Just people who never left

Mothers, fathers, sons, and daughters

Just people like you and me

No reason to be afraid

They just want to say hello

So, say hi back and don’t panic

I think they would appreciate that

In fact, I know they would

My Love Of Nature

My Love Of Nature

By Lord R.e. Taylor

I may be different

Not quite looking normal

I just have a love of nature

And my spirit shows it

So, please accept me for who I am

Days Of Gold

Days Of Gold

By Lord R.e. Taylor

The world is mostly green

With months of pure white

A few rare days out of the year

The white and green cannot be found

The world becomes a golden land

Reds, yellows, oranges, and gold

Colours which cover every inch of reality

Truly is amazing for anyone to behold

Sadly, it does not last for long

Turning to brown as the time passes

Then comes the white and green 

Until October comes around again

And the cycle starts all over

Ode To Joe

Ode To Joe

By Lord R.e. Taylor

You lived a long life

Have done so much

But you have a history

Four dead in your first life

Thirteen dead in your second

Did you care about them

Do you care about anything

Surely not about the hundreds left behind

I guess they never mattered

They were all just Americans

The people you swore to protect

The people who gave you your job

And the people who will remember

So, see if you have the job when they get angry

Maybe you will care about that

Dedicated to the memory of

all those lost in Afghanistan and Benghazi

A B&W World

A B&W World

By Lord R.e. Taylor

So much colour

Flooding our senses

It wasn't always like that

Some of the best stories ever

Never saw a touch of colour

Their world was black and white

And every grey in-between 

But then the world was different

People were different

That was a long time ago

We can remember but never go back

Colour is here and it ain't leaving

A Single Sunflower

A Single Sunflower

By Lord R.e. Taylor

The world may be bad right now

Everything looks dark and grey

And your hope may be lacking

But there is a sign out there

All you must do is look around you

If you can find a single sunflower

That flower is nature’s omen

A great omen to say the least

The world will be alright

All you have to do is believe
