Portraits with Pzazz!
There’s layers to my depths
And depths to my layers
Arrangements of silence, sounds, letters, words
Building, stacking, mounting
One pause, one syllable, one moment at a time
Spinning out from
My soul’s innermost core
Bursting into life
The moment they touch air
Traveling through galaxies
Beyond the universe
Beyond time
Portraits with Pzazz!
Look!
You see?
When you serve me
I will put you in places
You could not otherwise go
I will place you
In palaces you can’t afford
Portraits with Pzazz!
They won’t see me
Until they SEE me
Patiently leveling up
Daily
I am a new man
The old things
Have passed away
Portraits with Pzazz!
My little girl dreams
Are still cherished
By my woman’s heart
One day
Very soon
I know
They will be
My reality
Portraits with Pzazz!
And then the day came
When I stopped
I stopped
Dancing for a song
That never paid me dignity
And on that day
I said
I am significant
Then I reached out
And I took it
I took my worth
I took my grace
I took my respectability
I wrote my own song
This song
I can dance to
Proud

“Who will buy this wonderful morning? Such a sky you never did see!… Who will buy my sweet red roses?… Who will tie it up with a ribbon, and put it in a box for me?” – Oliver
Behind the Scenes
Standing firm
In who I am
A whole
Amazing
Beautifully & perfectly
Created woman
Moving
Purposefully forward
One ordained
Step at a time
La Vie En Rose
You had my heart
From jump
‘Cause that’s what it did
When we met
It went jump
Love at first sight
Always sounded
Like a fairyfable
Then you arrived
I learned
It wasn’t make-believe
You were real
Portraits with Pzazz!
If I could bottle timeI’d bottleThe smoothness
Of my young beauty
Fresh on my facade
And only wear
Timely wisdom earned
That comes with
Fine lines
Gray hairs
Sagging breast & butt
Tucked away in my soul
Then again
Hidden inside
There’s be no testimony
Showcase God to the world
Of battles fought
Victories won
Knowledge learned
So instead
I’ll bottle time
Inside my soul & mind
Won’t matter
What the years tell
On my skin
Heart forever young
Then
La Vie En Rose
You!
You are who I love
All of you
Unconditional
There’s no one else
No where else
I prefer
So happy
Making you happy
I absolutely love you
YOU!
Portraits with Pzazz!
Got a smile on my face
A twinkle in my soul
A little swag in my stride
Faith in new beginnings
Working out
In favor
Of my destiny
Portraits with Pzazz!
Art
Is my language
Running
Through my veins
Dripping
Off my fingertips
Born
To create
By my creator
Beauty
So many forms
Beholden
I am the beholder
Limits?Behind the Scenes
Baby you
You amaze me so
Don’t know how I did
Did life before you
Yes you
You please me so
Make my smile glow
Love hear me purr
Lover let me
Whisper in your ear
You’re the one
I want to give my very best
Don’t you let it go
Don’t ever let me go
Behind the Scenes
Truth or dare
Would you rather
Say I do
Sell me your soul
Live to see another day
Or die in this battle
To the hounds of Hell
I’ll release on you
Ha! Sucker!
Either way I own
Your destiny
So do you dare
Life or death with me
