I writing the winds of my mind upon a dream to write one good poem, one story, and lyrics.

Here is something I wrote about Tallmadge High:

Tallmadge High Graduating Dream

Can we not dream among our words divine power
Raising our spirits upon the heavens as a flower?
Blossoming within our heartbeats desires towering
With our wings spread open radiating soft showers.

Oh mist, refreshing the very core tremor of living insight
That a seed germinates within to blossom in creation’s sight.
Springing forth the Uni-Verse baring mind’s candlelight
Making love on canvas silk static sheets, quivers of delight.

Feel a pen impregnating the grain of every fibers depression
Upon the gravity of Poetry reigning down vivid impressions.
Within the miracle of God’s gift in singing verse expressions
Create the harmony that creates the melody of love’s procession.

Oh, Tallmadge High Graduates, climb your mountain.
