One life to live. No bonds to break. The world is mad. For righteousness sake. One life to live. So form the peace. Unite the world. Violence must cease. One life to live. So build the love. Quench the scorpion. Be harmless as doves. © Chad Damitz, 2020
Poem: The Mirror From Within
Is this really me facing the lucid glass? Reflections without Don't reflect within. Radiating smile. Jovial blue eyes. Unstained teeth. Don't show underneath. I let the world know My self is fine.

Poem: Wondering Under The Crisp Blue Moon
As I gaze upon this crisp blue moon. Under the blanket by the campfire. My soul longs to be much higher. Like a butterfly freed from her cocoon. If I spread my wings and fly away. My soul will journey to endless seas. Opening doors with nature's keys. All will be sunny and no longer... Continue Reading →
