Fantasize
Let your thoughts go wild
Bring back your memories,
Your thoughts as a child.
Ride the range on a bucking bronc’
Drive a race car at Daytona Park.
Climb snow covered mount Kilimanjaro.
Fly high aloft in a gas filled balloon
Going higher and higher almost touching the moon.
Sail the seas in a four mast schooner
Circling the earth, catching large tuna.
Ride a [...]

Present Day
It was the first Monday in weeks when I was not in office before ten. As I saw the frosted sundial of my old citizen ticking eleven thirty, I cursed myself for the umpteenth time for choosing that insurance company. I found out that the other companies did not require so many tests after [...]

Love ..
like a saloon door you crash open
not to know what you’ll see..
If it’s hidden or if it’s free.

Softly whispering in loud voices..
They say,
what would you like?
I say no bitters please.
What you soon discover..
Is only loves tease.
Luring you sometimes with silent looks
Feeling like a cheap paperback book.
Still..
Stubbornly
holding on to your [...]

The little fawn
Woke up at dawn
To find, the doe,
His mother gone.
Where can my mother be?
This is not like her
To leave me.
He put a call
To Lady Loon
As well as to
Old friend mister Coon.
Both arrived that afternoon.
First they searched
The Glen
Where they said a prayer
Ending in Amen.
Next they searched the Glade
Where they met
An old milkmaid,
Who promised to aid.
A [...]
