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 [...]

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 [...]

When Daddy bought a little horse,
I thought it strange; it was of course,
The thing just didn’t look quite right,
But I was small and not too bright.
Had leathery skin from head to toe,
But way back then I didn’t know,
That horses had a thing called hair,
Like puppies, cats and also bears.
And then there were those big wide [...]

The winters come and winters go,
And some have rain and some have snow,
But there is something you should know,
Some things remain the same.
At times they’re wet, at times they’re dry,
It’s quite enough to make you cry,
But there’s one thing you can’t deny,
Some things remain the same.
Some days are warm and some are cold,
To venture out [...]

I went for a walk, as I did each morn,
I picked up the mail which was always the norm,
A letter, a bill and two lousy flyers,
One for insurance and one selling tires.
Nothing seemed special, all was the same,
I looked a bit closer and saw something strange,
A black and white envelope there in the rack,
I scooped [...]

O young Lochinvar is come out of the west,
Through all the wide Country this guy they detest,
And save armpit noises he talent had none,
He thought they were funny and thought they were fun,
He thought that his ‘talent’ would make him a star,
But no one did care for the young Lochinvar.
He left California and charged straight [...]

A city boy dreams of what life on a farm would be like.
ย
ย ย ย ย Wintertime on the farm was always looked forward to with great anticipation, because it meant less chores and more time for recreation. When the snow began falling, I felt a certain satisfaction, because it meant endless skiing and [...]
