"Be careful of quotes you find on the internet, they may not always be true" -Abraham Lincon-
When bonds were freshly made
Before the internet
Another lover got between
The two as one, no longer seen
As one with much regret.
On Facebook after decades
Much older than before
She asked if she could be his friend--
Just one and one? Not two! Pretend?
They’re not friends anymore.
Centuries have faded.
The sand blows swiftly by.
They laugh at how they acted then.
Their dreaming seemed so futile when
They made each other cry.

Oh Joyous Reunion !
Oh joyous reunion ! Re-united once more !
(Tremulous emphatic hugs / kisses / tears pour forth)
... My eternal companion greets me at the veil
Sorry to tarry, dear, I'd hoped to endure well...
Was it only a moment that we've been apart ?
Perhaps from your perspective, for me - not so much
You passed in your prime: Oh ! How I've longed for your touch !
But here we are together, and now we can start -
To join all our dear ones, Temple worthy all
Brought to the fold by the Shepherd, whom He did call
Sealed for time and all eternity, His fulness received
Fulfilling our Father's plan, pre-mortally conceived

Summer (14.6.17.)
The trees are wearing their best leafy green,
Flowers blooming in the heat of summer,
People drinking beers, recall places seen.
Briefly, all marching to their own drummer -
So, go ahead now, and fulfill your dream,
Or lie back and have a bowl of ice cream -
Too soon, it’s all over – what a bummer!

SUMMER: An Acrostic
Summer sszzzles
Under a bright yellow balloon
Malevolent to the snowflakes who risk
Melodrama as they bake; blank stars in their eyes
Everyone down to the seashore! - watch the icebe-
Rgs go by !

Congrats, Tailor!

Gerald Murnane, Tamarisk Row
Rocky shores hold mysteries
From deadly seas.
They lead astray
When night hides day.
We need not calculate the risk.
The wind is brisk.
The waves beat on
Through night till dawn.
These lights are like a guiding star,
We’ll journeyed far
Till we’re back home.
For now we roam.
