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 [...]

It rang up into the hills
A feeling of resignation slowed me down
Entrusted with the torch till the end of the course
The cry from the swell of bystanders broke when I fell
Like the lie echoing down through time
Apollo’s mask masked us, a face receding eternally
A repetitive line of reflection, false distance
Like the false distance between death [...]

Ever present was the feeling,
He was missing out on life,
When the girl he met got pregnant,
And he took her as his wife.
Many plans were in his future,
Many things that he would do,
Now he has a wife and baby,
And he feels his life is through.
Though he tried to be courageous,
Though he tried to be a man,
He [...]

Marriage
A day set apart by two special people
Emotions are bound to arise
Pensive, magical, mysterious.
Exciting, intriguing, joyful
Wondering if their choice is wise.
Because marriage is a sacred bond.
It takes two people
Who cared enough about each other
To enter into a sacred covenant that has no equal.
Because two individuals are now one.
Sharing every joy, happiness, sickness, sadness under the [...]

When God created
Land, sea and sky
Something was missing,
So that is why
He created marriage
To allow man and bride
To create
Their own children
And enjoy them
With pride.
Lauren and Kevin
Created their first child
Riley Terese
Who’ll need
loving care and devotion
For quite a while.
This beautiful child
Will cement Mom and Dad’s
Love for each [...]
