The Street I First Saw You

Standing on the street, First time in this town, Though I’ve seen it on film and TV, I’ve always wanted to walk through New York City A hot dog and cash change hands, $4, with mustard and ketchup, I’m having both, Another $2 for my can of coke I see the Woolworth building and theContinue reading “The Street I First Saw You”

Don’t Set The Alarm

Is there anyone out there?Anyone at all?There was a time I had someone,There was a time I had it all Then one day I woke up,With no one by my side,The night got longer,I guess it’s going to be a lonely ride I turn on the light,And try to get you off my mind,But theContinue reading “Don’t Set The Alarm”

The Moment

The sun will shine,I shall love again,No, a drop of rain,Doesn’t mean it’s the end, The time will come,For me to reign,And maybe by then,I’ll barely remember your name, Things may come, andThings may go,But when I’m in love,In my heart I know… ©R. Spencer 2020

Scars

Events in life leave their mark,Things that will hurt,And things that will last, Often we try to put on the make up,And hide all that we have been through, But healing will only come,When we find a way, To show all,That this is what has made us,Who we are today ©R. Spencer 2020

The Choice To Make

Wait your turn,A little kindness never hurt,There’s enough for everyone,Even if it may seem the world is on high alert Think of others as well as yourself,For that’s the only way one can win in the end,It’s far better to avoid an enemy,Than lose a friend Ignore me if you want to,That’s your choice ifContinue reading “The Choice To Make”

Whatever happened to…

After all this time, They are all about to reunite, Time moved them further apart, But time brings everyone back together tonight All but one it must be said, The one no one could invite, No one knows where he is tonight They all moved on, Got married and caught up in life, They startedContinue reading “Whatever happened to…”

Go Nuts

If I had a time machine, It would be in my top five, To visit that bakery, The one near the dive Those old days when it was great to be alive,They were the best doughnuts I’ve ever eaten, In any time or place, Nowhere today can match the look of joy their taste putContinue reading “Go Nuts”
