for you to know
the thoughts of man
are universal in their heart
you're not alone in your pain
it is a gainful way
though it's ache is pure and hard
momentary is the misty dim
held tight gripping firm
the window releases the view
so then begins another wish
of your delightful admonition
i do know and yes i am
to be another day
Bird Diversity
Eagle soars so high
yet vision is very keen,
Won't miss a mouse move...
Little Falcon swift,
None can match her diving speed—
No prey escapes her...
Albatross wingspread,
Greatest that avian possess,
Upon the wind soars...
Tiny Hummingbird,
Can hover silent, reverse—
Fastest wings ever...
Ostrich speed swift,
But its wings total useless,
Bird diversity ...

Some of us laugh
Some of us cry
Some of us smoke
Some of us lie
But it's all just the way
that we cope with our lives...
I am going to submit a haiku it probably sounds cheesy!!
Bang! the thunder strikes
Drip-Drop! they fall to the ground
Storms of my mind blow...
JUST KEEP SWIMMING!
JUST KEEP SWIMMING!
JUST KEEP SWIMMING, SWIMMING, SWIMMING!
WHAT DO WE DO?
WE SWIM!
An evil divine
in the allure of her eyes,
lustful and pure
A fire burns
in the caress of her arms,
timid and sure
Stray dreams in the night
in the passion of her kiss:
mirage that was her.

Good Morning, Writers!
Yesterday, I was ill and
Did not post. Sorry.
I am feeling much
Better today. I hope all
Is so well with you.
Sincerely,

Twain Quote Revisited
when in doubt, speak true,
the best part of that being—
you know what you said...
because if you lie,
you have to remember all
details exactly...
should you leave one out,
you will trip over that tongue—
caught in your own words...
besides, no one will
believe a confirmed liar—
even speaking truth...

Someday
Call me cynical,
Pessimistic, whatever—
The tunnel grows dark…
Keep looking for light,
Prayers, poems, promises—
No blaze of glory…
Wars and rumors, yes—
You ain’t kidding, we got ‘em—
Earthquakes, pestilence…
End of all Time Come?
Could be yes, could be no, but
Are you ready if…
Because the problem
With unknown factors is this:
One day Someday comes…

The fears returned
and forgotten promises
haunted their way back.

The wonderful world
is too much for my frail quill
to put into words.

My apologies.
Last week was very busy.
I hope this week shines!

Put off tomorrow,
The things we needed done today—
Procrastination…
Eyes always ahead,
Looking out for what maybe—
Missing all the now…
When the kids are gone,
Just pictures, reminders of
Times we just let slide…
It was a fast life—
Runaway train nowhere—
Try to reverse time…
Sitting with my life,
Assorted pictures taken here
And there. Lie in box…
To late turn back clocks—
Mirror reflects geezer, shock!
I’m getting older…
Tragedy. When you
Lose control and got no soul—
Music out of date…

Lost in space with you
My reality anchor
Cast aside for now
Destination roam
Chase scattered dreams unfulfilled
With nets made of gold
"Man, of all the animals, is probably the only one to regard himself as a great delicacy".
Jacques Yves Cousteau

its a joy to speak
your name out loud on my lips
so simple a task
my mind is awash
imagining your entrance
shall i turn my head
did you hear my heart
whispering longings of you
beating so loudly
youth calls out to love
forever glancing forward
not until its over
did we know the truth
face the world and smile
no-one must know what you hide
ignore the cruel pain
painful emptiness
tell me what I am doing
here? If anything
smile and laugh out loud
everyone loves you, or so
they say when you smile
you hide so well your
fears, from those who 'know' you best
play their game, you must
for a time at least...
