James Charles Hutsell ( Aka Butch ) Poems

As I sit here in my soul
lost in concentration
searching for a timeless thought;
I need your inspiration.
...

Spring's reign still fell to summer's sun,
All ablaze 'till black nights come,
In the guard of a sentinel,
Round in the sky,
...

The needle pierces the epidermis
to find a waiting vein
though the instrument point isn't sharp as new
'tis worth a little pain
...

Bobbi, a grandmother! How could this be
when it seems that only yesterday;
a doll was her baby?
My older sister - of my sisters three.
...

In waves they rush back upon me
and I struggle to put them in words.
Thoughts, memories of events and emotions;
come crashing down in oceans...
...

If loving me is in your nature
then love me once again.
To abandon what is natural
is the only sin.
...

In your arms I am a stronger man
than I've ever been before.
You've shown me all the love I have;
and given even more.
...

I will not pretend to be
any more than what you see;
nor any less than what I am
I am a man, I am.
...

In the distance
past the dense and heavy dark haze,
I just believe so tenaciously with every breath of life in me;
there are waiting brighter days.
...
