A Friend of the Outcast

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

A beach hut in my mind atop the shores of time and, a friend of the outcast....

Not always upon the outside nor, even the in although

I have had moments along lifes journey and way ~

Makes me consider a recent verse: how can one love what they cannot see?

See what they do not seek? Everyday another centimeter deeper 

Into the depths of love I go; knowing, that I am not alone....

A friend of the outcast, what a wonderful thought and dream!

This bread for the heart and nourishment for the Soul ~

The crippled, blind, lost, alone; obese, but to whom and nerds and geeks???

Julie Bristow called my humble self Sir Galahad once but, twas a joke

Ah, but to be so gallant....

Cut by the knife and here comes my chance and, considering 

Eternity, inside of their beautiful eyes and precious lives ~

A full tank of oxygen, tropical waters, white sands and misfits; myself!?

Looking at them all now amid these splendors, more brilliant their colours

Than the heavens which paint the sky and their laughter, tis a symphony

These melodies; rising their resounding within the land of broken toys....

But broken unto whom? Makes me smile, makes me cry, but not for long ~

I haven't got the time is what I used think until one day, I died; borne inside?!
