SAILORS SWEET SONG

By -
DEDICATED TO  ALL THE SAILOR'S WIVES AND DREAMERS
OH SETTING SUN BRINGS FORTH AN EVENING STAR
BEFORE YOU PART, I PRAY.
I BEG THEE TO GUIDE ME TO THE LOVE THAT I HAVE YET TO SEE,
WITH A TRUE HEART I SAY TO THEE.
I SAIL, I SAIL UNDER THE FADING LIGHT,
AWAY FROM THE SHOALS INTO THE RESTLESS NIGHT.
SURELY, I HAVE LOST MY WAY,
NO STARS, NO BEACONS TO GUIDE ME IN,
ON THIS MOONLESS NIGHT.
THE SKY IS DARK, THE OCEAN UNFORGIVING AND
THE SHIP IS CALLED GREY.
I HAVE NO COALS AND THE SEA IS EAGER TO SWALLOW ME WHOLE.

I GAZE UPON THE BLUFF, AND THERE I SEE MY LOVE,
A LANTERN IN THE BAY.
OH,  HOW YOU WELCOME ME.

MY TRUE LOVE……… I AM HERE TO STAY.


God Bless You
May all be well with you
DMD

The End Game

By -
End Game. Death in all its gore and splendor has the end game all ready written for all of us. The end game plays out every day from the beginning of time it’s the same for some, different for others on distant continents, as we all know it today. The fortunate ones, go to the other side in their sleep with loved ones, at their side awake and some asleep at the soon departed. Who are those few rare individuals who have escaped the mundane way to the grave, and escaped the grasp of death, and cheated it more than twice? And as a precious gift of life, they get to see thru the veil of the unknown and get to the peak and come back to tell us all about it. This anomaly has baffled the world’s theologians, medical professionals, and thinkers of our time. Were all these incidents, a freakish joke of nature or was it all part of an elaborate “End Game “written exclusively for the fortunate few? God Bless You May all be well with you DMD

How was your summer

By -
How was your summer? My summer was like a long never-ending walk thru the desert of endless, useless repetitive motions. Thanksgiving, 4thof July had no meaning but left me staring at my shadow in an empty room with no life, and memories with no emotions just waiting for another day.   I hear laughter, jubilation, and sounds of joy on the other side of my door, but it’s quite like a cemetery on the inside of my door. Let the children play and be happy and the community rejoices its repose, as I slowly wither away from myself, my family, my people, and my nation that is far away. My loneliness envelopes me like a whirling dervish in a trance. This was the devil's anvil, all retreats are cut off, and this was my winter in the summer of my life. So drink sparingly from the chalice of life as the journey is long and arduous, make all thy decision early and wisely. God Bless You May all be well with you? DMD

Sarasota Fl

By -
Sarasota FL T his land of the first people, the native Indians, was called Sarasota. Today the city dwellers call it “Paradise.” It is a cruel joke flaunted by the city wannabees, and social climbers, who clamber to get their mug shots, in glossy magazines. With all the greed, avarice, and underhanded deals in this town, it is the devil's playground, and many a soul departs, as the corner pronounces death by misadventure.   The origins of this sweet, innocent town called Sarasota are unknown and shrouded in the fog of the bayou backwaters. Historians think the word Sarasota is part of an American Indian language, which meant Point of rocks. It sounds dangerous if you are on a ship or onshore. Another old legend suggests that Sarasota means “Place of the dance.” I wonder who all were dancing at this party, I wasn’t there. On the map of 1763, this landmass was called “ZARAZOTE. “ The name itself sounds even more dark, threatening, and very ominous. It could be anything but friendl...
