William Lindenmuth(11/24/1949) I am blessed to work with Angels, The kids i work with are my greatest mentors.They may not be able to speak in words as we do but they have shown me avariety of ways of expressing themselves. My experiances working with thesekids have humbled me and shown me how to appreciate life's Simplest gifts,these things are what most take for granted until faced with serious lifesituation. Poetry allows an outlet for us to express from within feelings orthoughts we have nurtured and bring them to life in a printed modality.

A Different Point Of View Do you really know meThe person I can beCan you see through these eyesIf you could, what would you see?Can you feel my emotionsdo you judge me by my smileo r the sparkle of my eyesjust come inside awhiledo you know when i am happycan you feel it when i am sador when i am not feeling welland times when I am maddo you know what makes me happy?would you treat me like a friendcan you feel my frustrationfrom the signals that i sendDo I appear as a mysterysomeone you try to figure outdoes my existence seem hopelessare your perceptions filled with doubtDo you feel empathy for the things I cannotdo?If you truly look inside yourselfthis might apply to youIf you really want to know meTake a few steps in my shoesteat me as you treat yourselfrespecting all points of viewBe flexible and kind to meand you will find your wayrespect me for the person I ameach and every dayThe biggest reward in knowingis in finding out who you will beJust take a look inside yourselfand you will find a part of me William Lindenmuth


A Lady Of Poetic Reason Her words were soft like a summer breezeHer thoughts as gentle as the windPrinted or spoken to put the mind at easeEmoting deep feelings from withinWith love as her quest she sojourns through her rhymeTelling wondrous tales passionately placed in timeAs you read her thoughts on the printed pageThe wisdom of lost loveGentle passionate rageYou feel all the hurtYou bask in the warmth of her smileShe invites the curious hearted to stay for awhileCaught up in the rapture of loves soft melodyYou let yourself go easy and drift most gracefullyEasing through the fires of loves raging embraceShe dances with your inner soulTo a warm and caring placeWith sweet poetic reasonShe will slowly reel you inWith a smile warmed by the seasonFor true love to beginThere is no fear of leavingTrue loving hearts they will stayThe lady of poetic reasonHer true love will show the way William Lindenmuth


A Life Revisited I thought that I was here beforeAnd may have passed this wayIt all looks so familiarThe returning of a dayLike a moment of foreverFrozen here in timeAnother life revisitedBut is it really mine?I feel as if I have been hereI have visited for sureThe familiar air about meLike the tide returning to shoreCould it be me I am here to findOn this journey aloneTo seek a space familiarA place one might call homePerhaps I should take a rideTo find what lives withinFor there will never be an endingTill I know where to beginIt seems I have walked this roadIn another space in timeThe evening light will illuminateThis life forever mineI am dancing with remembrancesWalking with a memoryIs this another personDisguised so well as me?This song it sounds familiarA sweet haunting melodyI stand in a place revisitedBut is it really me? ? ? William Lindenmuth


A Love So Rare The joy of love over takes meIt bends reshapes to make meIt warms me from the inside outIt creates a certain look upon my faceA feeling I cant live withoutThe simple feeling of wanting you thereFor each and very momentA love so rareCaptures this heart foreverWhen I speak your nameMy face lights upMy eyes all aglowMy spirit is liftedMore then you knowTake this hand and hold onA love so rareA heart so preciousTwo hearts carry onThe realization of wishesSweet dreams come trueLook into my eyesLike an ocean blueCalm waves reflecting skiesA love so rareEach and every momentFor every breath I takeYour caring heartI won’t forsakeFor I will have you near meAs close as a heartbeatThat quickens with your smileStay with me foreverIf only for awhileA love so rareWill surely have a chanceTwo hearts that beat togetherIn a slow embracing danceWe will take each first stepFilled with warmth and grace


Melting slowly in your armsAnd in another placeA love so rareWe have arrivedBathing in starlightTwo hearts come aliveHeld together inseparableNever letting goThis love so rareThe only love we know William Lindenmuth


A Nights Journey When the late night shines upon meAnd I am just a yawn awayFrom entering my dreamlandSuch a lovely place to playWill I remember if I have been thereAre my thoughts sketchy at bestWhen I lay my head down to sleepFor an evenings night of restWhen my head it hits the pillowAnd I slowly fade awayTo escape into my dream worldTo lead my mind astrayThey seem so clear and vividWhile I live them in my mindBut the details become sketchyWhen awakened they are hard to findBut I travel back each night timeIn search for a perfect placeA fine nocturnal excursionAnd a view of your beautiful faceMy heart has joined this lovely rideIt has traveled this road beforeWalking hand in hand in the night skyRevisiting earth once moreWe’ll dance across constellationsTip toe along the starsWhile the evening skies become your eyesAnd I feel you near and afarThen suddenly we are fallingAnd the planets pass us byHolding on to each otherWhile we no longer flyOur lips they touch just one more timeI suddenly lie awakeReturning from a journeyI never knew I would takeIt all seems so wonderfulThat I close these eyes each nightAnd float away with my imagination


The heart navigates this flightSome times the ride is plenty roughWaking up in a cold cold sweatRecalling that you cant dance in the big dipperWithout getting your big toes wetNow I lay me down to restAnd these eyes will slowly closeReady for my night time journeyBut to where? , nobody knows William Lindenmuth


All My Love Without you I am emptyI am lost and out of touchFor all that you have done for meI love you very muchFor every sweet word spokenAnd for all the smiles we sharedYou’ve always been my heartbeatYou have always truly caredThis heart beats ever strongerWith each beat I love you moreFor the simply beauty of youThe woman I adoreYou know you mean so much to meMore then the stars aboveFar beyond romantic clichesI give you all my loveYour smile lights up the darknessYour hand guides me to the lightWith your arms around meSo safe secure and tightI feel a love that touches meFrom the inside out The tingling that consumes meNever leaving any doubtSweet love of my lifeDarling woman of my dreamsI find you everywhere I amIn every thought it seemsWith every kiss that we have sharedI can never get enoughI keep them caressed inside my heartAnd use them when times get toughFor every achy momentThat slowly passes awayI think of something we have donethat gets me through my dayAnd when I’m gazing at the moonAt the open sky aboveI see your eyes in the heavens


Softly singing I send you all my love William Lindenmuth


Angel Of Hope Angel of hopeThere is always someoneStanding by your sideTo calm and assure youWhen life is a bumpy rideSomeone who will listenTo your silent prayersYou will never ever be aloneWithin your hurt she sharesAngel of hope you free meYou take away my painHold me up on my ownThe sunshine in my rainFor every cloud passingYou are my sky of blueYou help me to believeIn all the things I doin my darkest momentsWhen my heart is filled with doubtI look inside and I find youTo see what life's about William Lindenmuth


April Showers Afternoon clouds,Intermittent sunRaindrops beckonA vertical runHumidity curls every loose hairWarm sultry breezePrecipitation sharedWide open petalsSoft beaded leavesRainbow ascendingRich color weavesexpanding umbrellasPassionate skiesLoud calling thunderSpring time surpriseClouds now departedSoft gentle raysSteam clouds emergingToward future rainy days. William Lindenmuth


Around And Round Don’t let a life time slip awayDon’t let a moment go unnoticedHold on closely to each dayLet your heart and mind be focusedMake every happy moment lastlet each sad one pass you byBeware of darkness and shadows castSpread your wings to flyDance to the music of your heartGuided by a caring soulEmbrace this youthful feelingEternal children do not grow oldLaughter is the medicineThat massages all sadness awayWhile gentle smiles will maintainThe beauty of your dayDon’t let a heart beat pass you byLive deep with each breath you takeShare all the goodness you have insideWith every friend you makeStop to smell the dandelionsWhen you cannot find a roseFor all beauty in the right lightwill nurture all that growsLet every cloud amuse youEven in a clear blue skyYour day is forever changingDon’t let it pass you by William Lindenmuth


Believing BelievingBy Bill Lindenmuth 12/06/13We all believe in somethingA dream that may come trueSomething to have faith inThe things we say and doWe all have faith in someoneWho will turn dark moments b rightLike a star shining down upon usOn a cloud filled winters nightWe hold on to our childhoodour sweetest memoriesWhere once we were uncertainHoping puts our minds at easeWe always find a heroIn every sacred prayerLife's problems will fade awayOn the breath of hope's fresh airWe still believe in things we cannot understandNo matter how it's explained to usFaith will make its standBelieve in all things that you can beFor there is always hope in a faith filled heartbelieving sets you free William Lindenmuth


Beyond Flesh And Bone If I could see the world in a different wayHere's what i would doI would cast away my flesh and bonesfor energy pure and trueI would take in everything aroundfrom the petals of a flowerright down to the groundFrom the top of a maple to its very roots, I would find out what it's all about.I would attach myself to butterfly wingand flutter my day awayI 'd immerse myself with dolphinsfeeling the water as I swim all dayI would capture the essence of a yellow rose,and scatter myself in the airI would travel to the stars and backand the suns rays i would shareTo a mountain top i will riseand taste the driven snowand slide right down the other sideas part of springs thawing flowOn salmons scales i would sing my tunefloating upstreamcapture the darkside of the moonand visit my inner dreamson eagles wings i would touch the cloudscatching rainbows in my veinsto glide and soar on thermal windsabove the grassy plainsand when I return to my previous formI surely hope i will bea better person for it,One with the vision to see William Lindenmuth


Butterfly Dreamer Majestic dreamer fluttering gracefully above each open petalFiery orange and black as you pass through a bright autumn skyBriefly visiting on your way to destinations unknownRestless wanderer, turning nighttime into day traveling to placesUnknown to you and places unimaginableFloating without effort where the morning light serves as your next stopOn a stream of consciousnessThe sweet scent of jasmine draws you closer as you briefly touchdownThen you gently scatter the dust of life on an unsuspecting soulWings become still momentarily, then off into your seeminglyEffort less flight, into the darkness you travel guided by heavenly lightOnward in your journey in search of the perfect dreamYour quest continues in both darkness and in lightEver closer, with each passing moment, visions become reality in theWaking cycle of our lives, autumn settles in, a celebration of seasons pastVibrant colors from our experiences now on displayThe butterfly settles down in its final destinationFlowers bloom in the midst of a fiery sunsetThey await your graceful arrival William Lindenmuth


Colors Vibrant arc across the sky,Spectral colors ascending, dancesFar beyond the reaching eyeTo find its end will take all chances. Like a heart of many colors,Emotions fill a hollow soul.From the gentleness of beingHappiness will be my goal. Gentle winds, white clouds dancing,Stroll across a clear blue sky.Their images forever changingA shining sun as time goes by. Let me bathe now in your colors;Immerse me in your gentle light.Shower all you meet with kindness,As day reaches into night. Connecting dots on constellations,Pictures drawn on cobalt skySlowly sink towards the horizonOrion’s Belt has passed me by. Morning’s light has softly broken;The earth awakens with a smile.Flower petals reaching outwardHope this light will stay awhile. I raise my head up from my pillow,Wipe my eyes to clear this sleep.Sitting, standing, slowly risingAbsorbing colors I will keep. William Lindenmuth


Cradled In Your Arms Cradled in your armsHeld close to your heartThis dance will never endOnce you let it startStep away with meFollow where I goOur loves takes us to placesThat only we can knowLost within a dreamwe drift away in peacepassionate souls unitedour hearts feels its releasethis dance is never overin your arms eternallywe hold each other closelyour spirits are set freelove may sometimes stumblebut ours will never fallfor what we feel withinis the greatest love of allI hear the music playLost in its melodyWe dance through out the nightTogether you and meWhen I hold on to your heartAnd you nuzzle close to meHolding each other togetherThat’s the way its meant to beFor as long as I shall liveMy hands reach out to touchAs we share the love we giveAnd we give so very muchAs we dance in to the nightAnd the night time fades awayI will be cradled in your armsTo stay William Lindenmuth


Cycles Soft rain falling on a drought filled browEarth rejoices here and nowNourished by the slow downpourRising up on each lake shoreFlowers glisten in subdued lightBranches reachingFor day and nightCascade sheets from each rain cloudGrass blades sharpen well endowedGentle light now parts the skyCapturing every watching eyePatches sweet of baby blueRain clouds dance away from youThe day continues bathed in lightWater beads they now take flightFeel the dampness of the airHumid memories we all share William Lindenmuth


Distant Shore On a distant shoreShe stands aloneHer arms outstretchedI walk her homeSoft hands adjoined in an open mindLove knows no distanceAs hearts unwindOn a distant shoreNo space remainsTwo souls togetherLoves sweet refrainWhere miles are unimportantAnd smiles judge where we areI hold you closerFrom afarWords are sharedAnd thoughts revealedSoft passion releasedNo long concealedLoving the things I hold insideWhere oceans fadeWe are side by sideCloser then the spaceDividing each heartbeatTime is unimportantTogetherness is sweetHold me a little closerI would like to come insideTwo hearts that beat together as oneIt is all such a beautiful rideI know that now you are dreamingAnd I am cuddled up so closeYour warmth it will consume meIt’s the heat that I love mostwhen your heart awakenssoft kisses touch your cheekanother day togetherfor the sweet sweet love I seek


William Lindenmuth


Do You Know Me? ? ? ? ? Do you really know me?There isn't much to knowA truly simple personGoing with the ebb and flowLike a lost wave on the oceanRolling toward the shoreBreaking on a sandy beachCould I ask for something moreColor me optimisticWith subtle shades of dismayTo maintain a sense of balanceWith the blessings of another dayDo you know me from the insideThose secrets that dwell withinWhere thoughts are never endingNever knowing where they beginA single thought invites meTo other thoughts releasedThey cleanse my inner beingAnd bring a sense of peaceDo you really know me?As time just drifts on bySpreading wings and memoriesOn gossamer wings they flyEach day becomes a blessingEvery moment lends us much moreWith a chance to be that wandering waveThat finally comes ashore William Lindenmuth


Do You Know The Magic Do you know the magic of loveThe sweet joy of caringIs there a special place in your heartThat thrives in the joy of sharingCan you feel the pain of separationThat fades when together againA joy with hopes everlastingMy dear sweet loving friendDo we know the true meaning of foreverIs love like the quest for the holy grailWill the heart win out in the long runwhile the strength of the heart prevailsCan you feel the magic of loveWhen two hearts beat together as oneDo you know of the pain and heartacheWhen it’s finally over and doneDoes love change like the seasonsBlooming in the early springGrowing throughout our summersAnd the autumn color it bringsWill we suffer in the winter of discontentWill it all come suddenly to an endWill you have the strength to weather the stormWhile life goes on my friendDo you know the magic of loveWhere the heart is quicker then the eyeIt’s the melding of hearts togetherWith hopes it shall never dieIt’s the magic in the sharingAnd the willingness to giveThe secret is in the caringthe joy in life to live William Lindenmuth


Dont Be Afraid Please don't be afraidSaid the loving friendFor what I feel is realWith no room for pretendLet there be no fearWe can stop and feel it growWith every day togetherA blessing makes it soWe can nurture it day by dayFor there is no race to runThink of it as a loving friendshipLets learn to make it funThere is much to learn about usLets share our inner dreamsFor love is just as sweet as it seemsWe both found this togetherNot seeking anything in returnBut it seems we started a fireA beautiful lovely burnBut relax and please breathe easyAnd let your smile revealYour beauty from the insideThat your heart can"t concealFor I will love you sweetlyIn this slow enduring danceLets just take it easyGive two caring hearts a chance William Lindenmuth


Each And Every Moment For each and every momentEvery second I existI live and breathe for youYour love I can’t resistTo live and love this lifetimeYou are in my daily prayerFor times when you’re not with meWhen I close my eyes you’re thereFor every dance togetherFor every star aboveThe light that burns within usThe passion of your loveWith dreams so never endingFor every sparkling seaFor each sunrise and sunsetI feel your love in meFor every breath worth takingMore then the air I breatheThe love that lives within meForever I believeFor each and every momentAnd every heartfelt kissI am always thinking of youAnd of the things I’d missFor every hug that we have sharedAnd every soft embraceFor every smile turned to laughterNo other could take your placeFor each and every momentThis heart so warm and pureGently caresses each heartbeatAnd I could not ask for more William Lindenmuth

I Live I learn to walk in the rainSkipping through puddles of lifeGetting my feet wet brings me joyWith every new experienceI learn how to look at starsTo sense the world in a different lightWrapping myself in many colorsCreating a tapestry of what I amI take in the essence of what is to beRecalling that the past is what brought me hereKnowing that each day is not givenBut merely a sweet and wonderful giftI dream with my eyes wide openWith a mind that is never closedI sleep with thoughts of yesterdayAwakening with new thoughts of enlightenmentI learn to walk in the sunshineMoving through the darkness of nightNavigating through life's uncertaintiesBut certain of my own existenceI thrive from every sunriseAbsorbing rejuvenating rays of lifeThey radiate through meAnd brighten the light in my eyesI see with an open mind and visionI touch with gentle fingersI smile with inner warmthI live through all things William Lindenmuth

In A Child's Voice Listen to the voice of a childYou will hear the wisdom of the agesA book ready to be writtenFilled with many unwritten pagesLearn from their innocenceHonestly brutal but realFor they haven’t yet been tarnishedtelling you exactly how they feelSo simple yet so wise they speakfeelings never compromisedFor whatever words they speak to youYou should not be surprisedListen to the voice of a childYou can always feel their painThey will always bring you sunshineWhen the world is filled with rainTheir laughter is the musicThat comes straight from the heartSo learn to sing their praisesRejoice in every partNever let that child withinEscape or get awayFor every child is a part of usEach and every dayListen to the voice of a childHear each and every wordFor every question asked of youFrom sublime to the absurdThere are many lessons to be taughtAnd dreams to be realizedWe learn from each other every dayYet we always act surprisedIf we listen a little bit closerYou will hear that inner childA lifetime of knowledgeMostly tame but occasionally wildIn a world that’s constantly changingYou can always find a choiceIn the wisdom of our childhood


You will truly find your voice William Lindenmuth


In Blue The evening sky rests upon a cobalt blue comforterAs pinpoints of light descended downward through the heavensConstellations standing steadfast in a slow driftAs the earth rotates slowly beneath themFrom Orion to Ursa MajorThey stood together for the casual viewerI have often wondered how that star that stands aloneFeels in its seclusionSometimes the loneliest star shines the brightestBut will we appreciate its beauty?Lost in a cast of “billions”Some have long burned outAppearing only as a memoryPassed on from light years awayDiamonds that glitter in an endless skyA voice that drowns in its silenceAs planets tiptoe slowlyan eternal dance unfoldsIn Blue William Lindenmuth


Inside When the inside world comes outWhat in the world were you thinkingWere you always filled with doubtWith emotions forever sinkingDoes a smile touch a tortured soulRenewing the spirit from withinFrom the inside worldTo the outside looking inWhen the outside worldLives withinCan you cope and take it’s paceOr do you slow it downTo a modest and bearable paceDo you filter out the thingsOr the bearers of bad newsLetting the negatives drainWhile you’re walking in their shoesDo send the positive outShare the warmth of what you feelTo thaw out negativityAnd the damages unconcealedWhen the inside world comes outYour smile seems warm and trueIt’s wonderful for you to shareThat inside part of you William Lindenmuth


Inspiration Light Each morning is a blessingA sunrise that we’ve earnedAnother day to live againAnother lesson learnedA time to share a precious smileA time to touch someoneTo accept all that is givenWhile we reach out to the sunThere’s a world of wonder around usEmbrace its heavenly lightDeep within we find inspirationA chance to make things rightA breath within a heart beatA tear within a smileA step in the right directionTo walk that perfect mileAll the energy within usAnd the power that surroundsThe strength of the human spiritTo turn your life aroundIt is the presence of the momentAnd the absence of the pastTo take the next step forwardTo the good times that will lastTo ride the wave that carries usThrough the changing tides of our dayTo help us float when we begin to sinkOr whenever we start to strayMay we find the strengthThat lives inside to give us inner sightBasking in the warmth within ourselvesOur inspiration light William Lindenmuth


Into The Light (An Ode To A Mahogony Tree) Like a still life at dawnBefore the winds appearThe sunlight touches softlyCaressing one so dearYour graceful limbs reach outTo touch the distant starsSunlight caresses each glistening leafReaching from afarAs the day progressesYou stand tall in the lightCasting a gentle shadowSeparating day from nightYou sway and dance to the musicOn a light and gentle breezeHypnotic in your movementYou put the mind at easeIn the softness of early summerTrue colors will appearThe essence of who you areColors rich and clearAs we paint the world with colorIn the shortening of our daysYou reach out even furtherTo absorb golden raysIn the autumn of a life timeColors glow then fall awayBut gentle limbs and sturdy trunkRemain for all the dayas the winter passesYour colors are reborngentle branches reaching outto touch the light at dawnanother day of livingdancing on a gentle breezewe stop and we think aboutwhat puts our minds at ease William Lindenmuth


Just For A Moment Stop the world,things move too fastWhile trying to make the good things lastPrecious moments they slip on byPlease slow it down I try I tryJust for a momentLet the world stay the sameI am tired of this rat race gameI just want time to think and breatheInhale exhale Then relieveThe world is in a hurried rushWe lose ourselves Fall out of touchThe simple things have come and goneJust for a moment, from this moment onJust for a lifetimeHow long will that beIt isn’t up to you or meSo take each as if it were the lastAnd slow it down Don’t move too fastAs we walk this road togetherAround each winding turnI will hold your hand foreverFor the eternity that I yearnJust for a momentWhen your heart is in my handsA loving smile remembersThis loving soul understands William Lindenmuth

Outside This Solitude Inside this moment of solitudeEnraptured by pure thoughtin a contemplative moodA purely mental sportthough it may not be a gameThat any mind should playIt truly is an exerciseThat forms my thoughts todaySometimes I think I am better offTo create my own clean slateBut my mind is agile and catches upMy reaction far too lateA simple little joustaboutIn the meeting of a mindWhere it seems the deeper that you lookThe more that you will findA journey of your memoriesWasted time in spaceFor they don't affect the futureBut I guess they have their placeSo maybe I should take a breakAnd join the human paradeIn search of true realityNo self induced charadeAnd take the time to appreciateOur ever changing moodAnd appreciate the life we haveOutside this solitude William Lindenmuth


Pink Badge Of Courage She wears a pink ribbon for her loved onesShe braves the toughest of fightsWearing it as a badge of courageWhile the battle goes on day and nightAn unwanted visitor seeking a hostA relentless enemy to beShe fights through it allWith her spirit on callWith the strength that will help set her freeShe may give up a part of herselfIn the midst of her noble fightBut the best parts remainAfter dealing with the painStrong without fear or frightWith family and friends to support herAnd the will to fight till it endsBreathing a sigh of relief in remissionIn their prayers she knows she can dependWith life too precious to surrenderAnd her will to live so much moreShe celebrates life’s every momentHolding close the people she adoresRealizing the war is never overShe lives life one day at a timeMaking every moment count as she straddles that narrow lifelineShe embraces her life with a passionAs her heart and head lead with prideWith courage always in fashionWith all the strength she can muster insideGiven idle time to thinkBut she draws strength and courageFrom that beautiful ribbon of pinkFinding guidance from those who do love herLeaving all unpleasant thought far behindRealizing dark memories somehow remain in her mindCasting aside these dark demonsLiving life with a spirit so brightEmbracing all of her blessingsStanding in her own light


Her love touches all that surround herLiving life in its beauty so grandEnjoying life’s precious momentsKnowing those who love her all understandHer pink badge serves as a reminderOf the battles she has won and lostBut she faces each day with a heartfelt smileLooking back at the bridges she has crossed dedicated to those who battle breast cancer in a fight for life and for dignity William Lindenmuth


Raindrops Imagine yourself as a raindropSharing space in a cloudWill I be part of a morning showerOr the member of an angry crowdWill I fall to earth on a gentle breezeOr ride the currents of a stormWill I be cool or refreshingor steamy muggy and warmWill I bounce upon some rooftopOr touch the leaf of a treeRising along a storm surged tideSeeking some way to be freeWill I kiss the petals of a daisyAnd glisten in the sunOr fall into a lazy pondThat has no where to runWill I gently touch the soft brown earthSearching to find my rootsAttach myself to a passerbyWho is wearing rubber bootsWill I find myself in a glassas part of a lemonadeOr settled in a sheltered ditchAs a puddle in the shadeA raindrop's life is ongoingLike the angels tears Caressing the earthRising once again into the skyClouds symbolize rebirthJust imagine it for a momentAnd think of the rainbow in flightA raindropp divided into colorsBathed in heavenly light William Lindenmuth


Raindrops Falling Raindrops falling softly gentlyLanding on a wanting heartRaindrops moving slowly dancingKindred spirits do their partA soul is nourishedThis quenching thirstFilled from withinSoft love comes firstRaindrops touchingFaces smilingNo regretsWill cloud the wayRainbow ravishes the skylineIts graceful arch colors the dayRaindrops fallingSlowly dancingGently caresses my weary browTake your time to rest upon meLet this raindropp dance start now William Lindenmuth


Reaching Out Like a branch that reaches out toward the sunOr a leaf that gently touches the skysteadfast and growing with roots running deepor a robin preparing to flylike a wing that glides on a gentle windseeking its way to a nestlike a wave gently rolling ashoreSearching for a place to restLike two hearts beating from miles awaythumping in perfect harmonytrying to find some common ground, to set their spirits freeLike a kite that dances across the skyor the sun that chases the moonlike a rainbow arched from right to left that faded much too soonLike a dolphin leaping over a perfect waveor a shooting star that glitters in its flightThe soft sweet whisper of a gentle sea breezeas the daytime slowly turns into nightlike a mother and child sharing timeprecious moments in a gentle embracelike the the sun that rises in the eastern skywith a smile on its early morning facelike the golden rays reaching out to touchthe green soft earth belowlike a love that seeks to find an answerone you might already knowlike a song that reaches out to findan open and receptive earlike the person scared to make a change, suddenly losing that fearlike a road that reaches out to nowhere, suddenly finding its placelike two people standing hand to hand, gazing into each others facelike the warmth that comes from within the heartreaching out for each other with a love that cannot be torn apart William Lindenmuth

Shadows And Light I am lost within the shadowsSearching for the lightOn a line of demarcationSeparating day from nightIn the lightness of my beingAnd the heaviness I feelThe secrets of the shadowsthe light will be revealedshrouded in mysteryyet right before your eyesyour vision gives you blindnessyour blindness brings surpriseto look between the lines of timeemerging within the lightI walk the empty path before meFrom the daytime through the nightThe answers lie in questionsas questions will unfoldThe story of the agesJust waiting to be toldWhen all silence is deafeningEach whisper amplifiedIt is the heart that truly listensThe emotion of this rideAll existence will be questionedIn the shadows of my beingThe soul seeks its releaseFrom what my eyes are seeingStanding naked here before youBathing in pure lightWhere time is never measuredAnd there is no day or nightI walk between the shadowsIn search of inner peacethe light of life engulfs meexistence will not ceasethe song goes on forevera celestial melodyfor in between


the shadows and lightis where I long to be William Lindenmuth

Sunlight Sometimes it’s just the sunlightOr a rain cloud passing bya bright moon filled with laughtera song that makes you crySometimes it’s the thunderThat scares away the rainthe sweetness of a smileThat washes away the painIt might just be a shadowThat seems to fill your dayOr the beauty of a sunsetThat scares the blues awayFor each and every momentWith every breath we takeLeading closer to tomorrowAnd the choices that we makeLife is simply moment to momentNever knowing where it endsWe hold on tight to love onesForever grateful to our friendsSometimes it’s the sunlightAnd the gentle falling rainReminding us or our mortalityWith a chance to live again William Lindenmuth

Walk Awhile Walk awhile in my shoesFollow me down the roadI am stronger then mostI have carried that loadUnwanted visitorsThreatening pestsI walk taller then mostBeen put through the testWalk awhile with meWading through a sea of pinkAmongst strolling heroesNow tell me what you thinkBeen through trials and tribulationsAnd one thing is clearI walk amongst friendsAt least once a yearfamiliar faces appearI may not know their namesBut I have smiled, cried and huggedthem just the sameA pink badge of courageWorn with such prideWe applaud them for their presenceWalking with themStride for strideWalk awhile with meCome share a few tearsWe shed them with happinessAnd we are glad you are hereWe raise our hearts with hopeFilling our souls with prayerThat an answer will be foundAnd there are other causes to shareWalking hand in hand togetherOur hearts and hands secureGetting closer to the finish lineAn inspired race for the cure


This poem was written to support the' Susan G Komen Race for the Cure' I havesubmitted it to local organizers as my interpretation of what this walk /race is allabout. It is a sequel of sorts to the poem 'Pink Badge of courage' which i wrotefor a friend who was battling breast cancer. William Lindenmuth


Walking Back An angel walking back to heavenLeaving at 6 she will be home soonIf she hurries she will be home by 7Dancing across the gibbous moonPlanets and stars shine brightlyOn her trek across the skyHalo's glowing in the darknessWings expanded angels flyShe arrives on time to her destinationJust outside the "pearly gates"St Peter reaches to stamp her ticketShe finds she no longer waitsOn my way to heaven she singsFar beyond the starsI move gracefully without effortTimeless moments travelling afarI am home, I am safe and I feel no painReunited with my pastFaces long gone now are familiarTime stands stillBeyond all shadows cast William Lindenmuth

Where Love Can Be Found It is a quest of the heartAnd the spirit withinWhere all good things startThe end to all endsIt’s a dream that comes trueIn the middle of the nightOn the wings of loveWhen our heart takes flightIt’s the search of manyfound by a fewA pure simple visionEternally trueWhere love can be foundThe seeker might stateA place for the manyAnd a finder of fateIts friendship exploredTo a passionate endIt is openness trueWith arms that extendWhere a soft gentle toucha sweet caring smileWhere the heart can be foundIt will stay for awhileTwo spirits as oneUnited to shareCaptured voluntarilyAnd handled with careIt’s existential madnessWhere the mind meets the heartThe stirring of pure feelingsThat will not departWhere love can be foundSo simple but trueA place we call togethernessIt is me and you William Lindenmuth

Who I Am I am so much more Then you may know in many ways We are the same The differences make me who I am A player in a wonderful game Who I am Will make you smile And will sometimes make you cry But I have changed throughout my years From caterpillar to butterfly like each precious flower Reaching out toward the light I have blossomed and I’ve grown With a future clear and bright Who I am is truly more then the sum of all my parts I have shared and have connected With kind and caring hearts don’t let appearances fool you


Like the cover of a book Judge me by my actions Not by the way I look For within me there is a spirit The heart of my true being It makes me who I am making this world worth seeing William Lindenmuth


Why Did You Have To Go? can't believe you're goneWhy did you have to go? the heart has many questionsWith answers you'll never knowWe come to this earth as a rentalSurviving on a limited leaseWe make the most of time givenTill we are granted our final peaceYou are gone but not forgottenA sweet loving memoryA long chapter in your existenceWhen you meant everything to meIt doesn't seem fair that you should goMy heart hurts and it wonders whyBut through the pain I find the joyHeartfelt memories pass byThe empty space within my heartSlowly closes as it healsThe pain of loss lessensyour spirit will revealThe answer that I search forThough it may not satisfyHe left because it was his timeFor he lives and will not die William Lindenmuth


Without You I sat in dazed confusionNot knowing what to doSurrounded by my lonelinessTo live life without youMy life it lost all meaningThere’s a churning feeling insideI hope my heart can takeThis hurting bumpy rideI ‘ve walked these roads beforeWhile picking up the piecesIt’s a lonely walkThat seems to lead nowhereBut I’ll move onTill all this heartache ceasesI’ll live my lifeWithout youYou told me that you caredWho were you foolingYou used me for so longYou played me wellI chose to look awayMy eyes weren’t seeingI had existenceWithout beingAnd now that I fight backYou think I’ve changedYou sit and wonderAnd say I’m acting strangeWhat you are seeingIs truly meI took the time to openup my eyesI ‘ve learned to seeLife will go onYou’ll go your own wayAnd I’ll walk onAnd live my lifeWithout you


William Lindenmuth


Woman A Work Of Art Her thoughts were fastened togetherwith the threads of her daily beingA tapestry of her life A work of art worth seeingShared by the strokes of an endless dreamBrushed with the colors of the heartflowing together like a river downstream, a living work of artShe painted her life with colorsA rainbow of emotions on the canvas of her yearsA sculpture of life ever changingfilled with laughter, heart ache and tearsA song so sweet yet incompletea harmony of feelings composed with loveVisions of her thought and her memoriesSparkling like the stars up aboveLike a symphony thats unfinishedwith many notes yet to be playedher song of life never diminishedBy the subtle mistakes she has madeThe mural of her life will showthe realization of her dreams pastwith gentle shades of the present and a future yet to be castAs she paints and sculptures, composing her lifeShe will surely come to seethe brilliant realization,a natural work of artand a living memory William Lindenmuth


Words Words can be as emptyas a cold uncaring hearta frozen emptinesslost without feelingsymbolic gestures forthcominglost within this voidwondering if those feelings I havewill betray me or leave me in painthe truth can be so confiningwith the illusion of comfortdear heart do not betray meI tell you what I feelsome things you hold gently in your handscan suddenly slip awayyou look for reason and you seek to blamebut there is no fault in feelingswith the hope it is temporarya storm that will soon passa heart broken to piecesthe finest crystalline glasstears that burn a frozen cheekbut love will not melt awaywithin all reasonhope leads the wayI speak softly in whispered tonesSweet love grasp and hold itnever let it get away from me William Lindenmuth


You Lift My Heart You raise my spirit with a smileYou lift me higherThen I deserve to beWhen I am feeling downYou take me by the handYou lift this heartTo higher groundWithout a single wordWithout a soundWhen my world is tumbling downYou stop the turningWhen things are looking bleakYou find the lightYou catch each tear that fallsYou kiss it dryYou hold me close to youAnd then I sighYou lift this heartYou take me higherYou guide me toThe place I want to beYou raise my spiritsYou help me believeYou lift my heartthese eyes can seeSome days I scare myselfWith unwanted fearsI stood there shakingFor so many yearsIt happened all insideI kept it hiddenBut you looked at meAnd your eyes could seeYou came to lift my heartAnd hold my handTo help me look insideAnd now I understandJust who I really amYou set me free


You lifted up my heartYou helped me to find meSo now I catch your tearsI kiss them dryI gently hold your handI ask you whyYou look at me and smileI hold you closeRemembering all we haveMuch more then mostIt seems that it was thereFrom the very start, when you smiled at me William Lindenmuth
