(1)Young Tom visited his great aunt, until he was ten years old, And soon after his next birthday, her old mansion would be sold, Since she died, and he would miss them both, as nine years changed the date. He completed school, did two years work, and started college late. (2)At the end of his [...]

If I take a shred of 1980s time, and clutch it tight (From when optimism shined, and felt no need for second sight); And contain it in the formula, that I’m preparing now, I can climb the trees in modern woods, and never break a bough. Should I snatch a scrap of Paris, clasping firmly [...]

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 [...]

If you have a heart for dreaming- That somehow seems to care! Then follow me down the pathway- In the summer twilight there- If you have a heart for dreaming- Wherever the Fairies play- Then follow me into the shadow Of this old house today! Of all the beautiful pictures That hand on memories wall- [...]

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 [...]

“U”, gone astray. Without the contemplation of my endurance. Endless tears gush, yet, strong to conceal from the world. Worse dawn and unkind dust, but still, memories are at its finest. Staying alone, want to shriek and sob what would I have to do, flipside the worst? Life, isn’t a bliss without you, waiting in [...]

MY HEART……is not in the City; With its crowds moveing where no one knows- It is out in the hills of the PRAIRIE: With their strong SWEEPING WINDS- And their SNOWS! Its out where the stacks of the harvest Once stood in the trail of the “Boo”- Who came humming along with his PITCHFORK; And….stayed [...]

Oh, painter of pictures, and singer of songs, And…..weaver of golden dreams…… Come back to me, from years that are glown- Come back, on memories road to Home- In the gold, of that old “Yellow Sky”. When we came where lies the grave Where subtle SHELLY slept- Poetry, just bowed her head- Paused an hour…….and [...]
