A WIZARD'S TALE
I speak to you from a time so
long ago
of wizards to the monarchs who
ruled the soul
where streets were paved with
gemstones and lined in gold
where the women and slaves were
bartered and sold
and if you look close you can
see such a price
that was stamped upon my head
one sullen night
I was placed on a block to buyers
delight
and sold to the mother of a
sanctioned knight
I was taken to a farm and forced
to work
in the fields where the animals
grazed and stirred
each day a piece of bread was
my only perk
escape my only hope as I lost
self worth
with only one quick glance you
could never tell
that I was a wizard who'd cast
wicked spells
I cast one spell on the mother
and she fell
and got the knight too just
before he could yell
looking at my options I saw
they were few
took one horse with rations
and bid my adieus
now the king and the queen and
the jester too
want my head severed before
the moon turns blue.

MY DREAM
When you come to me, in the night
All my pain and sorrow takes
flight
You welcome me with open arms
I trust your love and your charms
As you lighten my heart and
clear my mind
Why are you so sweet and so
kind ?
I want to slip into your heart
and your soul
But afraid, I'll be the one
to pay the toll
With all your wisdom I must
soon see
Just where, in this life I should
be
I want to live, love and be
happy again
Only with you, may I win.

UNTITLED
Some see me as a wise man
With all the answers in my hands
Others see me as a spiritual
God
Waiting for me to lift my staff
and rod
Still others see me as someone
of perfection
Wanting me to solve their life's
confusion
Yet others choose to see me
as beauty
Thinking some of this grace
will make them happy
You may think of me as wise
If that's how I look through
your eyes
You may see me as a God
If you can picture a false staff
and rod
You may see me as pure perfection
If you can blind yourself from
my own confusion
You may think of me as a sign
of beauty
If you fool yourself into that
way of thinking
But to the one who sees
When they look at me
The rose that I shield with
my two hands
He is the one that truly understands
For this rose, this fragile
thing
It is what gives me this glowing
ring
That makes you all believe
That I am any of these things
I hold no power over any of
you
I just let you see me as you
want to

A MAN LIKE HIM
He sits in silence and meditates
Accepting the role that is his
fate
Wearing the ceremonial robe
of green
Eyes closed, inner senses keen
He leaves his surroundings on
the ground
All is silent, there is no sound
He reaches out to the spiritual
realm
Sensations all but overwhelm
As the knowledge that he seeks
Enters thought, though no one
speaks
A radiant light around him glows
As the power through him flows
Such a blending can be done
But only by the chosen one
Energy from him will be drained
Well worth the knowledge gained
For he shall lead his people
true
As only a man like him can do

FIRST VISION QUEST
As the fire danced at his finger
tips
Praise to the great spirit sprang
from his lips
As shaman he offered his spirit
the four winds
His first vision quest they
may be his only friends
Silence and shadows surrounds
all thought
And into the nothingness his
awareness is shot
The darkness is broken only
by a pin point of light
That nears and takes form and
then glow so bright
The glow engulfs his and he
merges with it like one
As his spirit guide eagle joins
with him, it has begun
As if on the wings of a great
eagle he now soars
Protector over the land and
people who he adores
Should he survive his journey
on the spiritual plain
A chief and true Shaman of the
tribe will he claim
Radiance and enlightenment be
his if the great spirit so wills
To guide the tribe from trouble
or famine or all other ills
