Silence the Noise

In the crowds of hundreds commuters mind was busy thinking what for it's being there where ears  continued going banged by the shouts of decibels At the corner of the sidewalks down the Metro of ambushes to blow your nerves still the will couldn't give in the wheels Justice in the loaded barrels it's what being applied when you're on the street as you're on your own there'll be no one but you to step aside the bumpy roads As the crowds went nasty and mean it's on your feet how the walk be made just like in your vessels where the blood be...

Stone cold River

A river splits the valley its length is so distant as it may be up the stream couple miles away as you walk up there on your naked feet Through the downstream where bushes lie and stony road built in between only a few dares take the risks where misty field keeps silent still where ghosts and beasts keep marching on And the valley remains unchanged in purity which never be ashamed and the river endures the name no one takes chance except who da...

Footprint on Your Heart (Gary Lenhart)

Someone will walk into your life, Leave a footprint on your heart, Turn it into a mudroom cluttered With encrusted boots, children's mittens, Scratchy scarves— Where you linger to unwrap Or ready yourself for rough exits Into howling gales or onto Frozen car seats, expulsions Into the great outdoors where touch Is muffled, noses glisten, And breaths stab, So that when you meet someone Who is leaving your life You will be able to wave stiffIcy mitts and look forward To an evening in spring When you can fold winter away Until your next encounter...
