Crossed Paths by Michael Romani Silent like a river Life continues to flow What is today Will soon be long ago The things we hold onto The things we believe They mean so much to you Though I'm certain these deceive Crossed paths in journey That caused you to appear Secret drops of destiny Found within each tear (c) September 28, 2019 Michael Romani All Rights Reserved
You can have results or excuses. Not both.” – Arnold Schwarzenegger
“Laws that forbid the carrying of arms . . . disarm only those who are neither inclined nor determined to commit crimes . . . Such laws make things worse for the assaulted and better for the assailants; they serve rather to encourage than to prevent homicides, for an unarmed man may be attacked with greater confidence than an armed man.” – Thomas Jefferson
Funny thing about pointing fingers, when you do, for your one finger pointed, three point back at the accuser most often. This truism seems to proven itself this time around.
Tradeau by Michael Romani Well, would you look at that We're entitled to opinions But not separate facts Peel it back like an onion And tell me what you see The truth has seldom been heresy Self appointed narrative can be a trip Especially when spoken by hypocritical lips Talking all about non-evidenced racism And allowance toward another's 'fascism' Whit is you captured in 'brownface' And a past you don't wish to embrace The times we've lived through Are perhaps long overdue Always interesting and ever changing Constantly moving and rearranging And still we have this truth Who did what in whose youth?

On the dignity of being that says all has its place and there is no such thing as not being good enough. We are all either exactly what God intends us to be or finding our way to this.
Dignity of Being by Michael Romani A fireman approaches the wildfire Drawn to the break; down to the wire Watching the woodland beauty burn But knowing inside what he discerns Death is necessary to the cycle of life Just as peace come after all strife It's bittersweet to say and to know But, Mother Nature kills to regrow Ironically death provides the opportunity To reform and reshape life with capability To face up to that ever resurgent demand After the fire burns through the wooded stand Death and life, on and on toward infinity Perpetuating new life to the ends of eternity The old gives way always in all ways to the new The dead feed the living, even me and you Life danced like a salmon in upstream exhaustion To give birth to new life and breathe a nation The forest floor sings out life's composition As life giving nitrogen forms from decomposition All the great things becoming shapes within one It's in the flow of life's dance never quite done Everything blends and bends is what I've found As all fits into each and each into all around All of the world's living things woven into tapestry In a blessed interconnection of the utmost majesty Spun in a circled dance of life transitioned into death Taken in as the miracle felt within each passing breath As far as the eye can see there is all worth the seeing But you have to look within to find the dignity of being (c) September 26, 2019 Michael Romani All Rights Reserved

We can learn a lot from history.
Ghosts of A Thousand Ages by Michael Romani The ghosts of a thousand ages Tell the truth of a thousand sages Stepping to the ledge, window shopping The fireworks inside are heart stopping Love of music fires our mortal souls Each string strummed serves to console The ghosts of the past Are sustained as the memories that last By keeping our joyful hearts As we have from the start Legends kept in our heads Are spoken as blessings from the dead (c) September 25, 2019 Michael Romani All Rights Reserved
