He stood on the edge of a suburb, where house windows faced an expanse
Of bushes and forest and small hills; and readied himself, with a chance.
He stood on the edge of a sunset, with houses not far from his rocks,
And somehow the sunset was lengthened, slowed up through a trick of the clocks.
He harnessed the [...]

I’m in love with fall
I love the changes
That comes in the fall
With raucous cheering
While watching football.
The beauty of trees
Leaves so eye appealing
So eager to please,
Decked out in Jacobs’s coat
Fluttering in the breeze.
Crisp apples snapping
With every bite,
And cut out pumpkins glowing bright
The aromic odors
Of the baking pies
Tantalizing whiffs that brightens the eyes.
And of course
Turkey in the [...]

When I was young, there was a song-”when I leave The World Behind”-
I’ll leave the sunshine, for the summer-
I’ll leave the tree tops, for the breeze,
I’ll leave the moon above, for those in love-
When I leave the world, behind!
I’ll leave the moonlight, for the dreamers,
I’ll leave the great ships for the seas-
And for the “Old [...]

I feel the the dew
from the fresh cut
grass beneath my
bare feet. The
sweet, alluring scent
of the blossoming
trees catches my
attention as the warm,
peaceful breeze wraps
me in comfort. I
find myself wondering
in a bed of flowers and
just in the middle stands
a delicate, red rose.
The divine beauty stands
as if it is about to speak
for itself. I awaken to
a beautiful spring [...]

The pheasants are starving in
four foot af snow!
With Northerners blowing, at
twenty below!
Out there in the Soil Bank, wher
snowdrifts are deep.
The pheasants are lying, for-
ever to sleep!
The news came from Washington,
right from the wire-
“Feed-the-poor-pheasants!” like
a prairie on fire!
John found a pheasant, its last
strength was shorn,
And it died in his hand, too late
to eat corn!
The pheasants get [...]

LAY DOWN THE BOOK;
To late a warning should begiven that the damn book is no good!
Don’t waste your time in LOOKING,
READER, SAY, AGREE WITH ME
And…. throw the book away!
KEATS wrote only one song-
How in the Meade
HE LIFTED THE YOUNG GIRL
UPON A STEED!
And LED THE HORSE, and watched
Her all the day-
While She would sideways lean
The hours [...]

I met her down beside a moonlit river;
We built a Home of Dreams, and happy days;
We did not say GOODBYE, and leave forever,
Our LOVE SONG still is there, in the Autumn Leaves!
When summers gold hangs on the tree-
She comes back through the moonlight, to me;
And far on the tide, long that old riverside,
GLEAMS THE BRIDGE [...]

L ingering in the corner,
of this desolate night.
Mindful of the darkness,
as my eyes lose their sight.
Clouds cover and storm is near.
Passion is high as my heart fears.
Anticipating.
In my mind debating.
Wondering if it may be,
if in me he will see,
what words cannot declare.
Pacing and tracing the lines
to his heart.
In his eyes I will fall,
let go [...]

My Dream Place
There is a place I’d like to go
Where it’s
Always sunny
And there is no snow.
There is a field
Where the crops all grow.
In this place where there is no snow.
The ocean’s turquoise waters
A perfect match to the skies hue.
In this place I want to go
Where there is no snow.
The gentle breeze in this sunny clime
Is [...]

Do you envision many paths? Do you wonder which one to take or where each one leads?What will it take; what will each path cost?
Can you see where it is that you want, and need, and should go? Are there others in tow? A miss step, a delay…another set back, another delay. Is the precarious [...]
