Injured Left Arm

Quiet at times I sit and ponder Letting my mind wonder As I think across the days and hours That my left shoulder has been in pain. Pain that continues past the limits of the sinew And grinds away at me night and day! It never has an ending Whether I lift, turn a wrist, or life a bag, It just goes... Sign in to see full entry.

Stormy Wind

Stormy Wind The wind swung around The corners of the house, And the wind roared aloud Through the mesh screen windows! Glaring and Blaring The wind howled and howled. Angry at the sun and Angry at the moon, Always yelling even at noon. It is angry all over and pushes and shuves. It needs to calm... Sign in to see full entry.

Rose in the Rain

A Rose in the Rain I stood there at the back glass door. Rain dripping down from the sky. There grew a beautiful rose bush With buds and blossoms all red. Down dripped a drop of rain It struck the petal of the bud. The bud bowed its head with the weight. The rose dropped down and bowed its head And... Sign in to see full entry.

Knocking About

Knocking About the halls at night. Wandering down the way From one end of the house to another Sleep not at all on the way. Sure I took my bedtime medicines And much to no avail Roaming through the house at Night. Thinking I am not alone Looking out the windows at times To see no lights in the...

The Oak Tree

The Oak Tree The oak tree stands straight and tall Branches spreading wider with each passing year. It started out as a small accorn in the grass, I built a guard around it as it began to grow. It got taller and taller with each passing year, And now it is nice and tall Its back as straight as an... Sign in to see full entry.

My Pride Cat

My Pride Cat He is my pride and joy you see, Full of fun and full of glee. He curls in my arms with chin tucked in Being petted with love like next of kin. His paddy paws up in the air Making his biscuits kneading at my hair. He closes his eyes with front feet around my arm I pray that God will... Sign in to see full entry.

My Friends - Things I Want You to Know

Things I Want You to Know I know you are my friend, And that there are many times Our conversations have no end. What we say and share Goes on and on from day to day, And What I feel goes unsaid. I want you to know That I thank you for the time For the moments that we spend together On the phone, in... Sign in to see full entry.

Waiting for that Moment

Waiting for that Moment When the sun has not quite come up For all nature to awake. Looking over the back 1000 acres. With its misty moisture hanging in the air. To see and hear all nature sing and come alive with bird calls And cattle mooing in the distance to be milked And turned to pasture for... Sign in to see full entry.

Misty Morning

Misty Morning There's a mist hanging in the air today. It sits waiting on the sun. Waiting to have it heat it up And help it lift away. Just 3 days ago There came one last winter blast. It dropped into the 40's To let us know winter had not run away. But today it will be different. The sun will once... Sign in to see full entry.

Pitter Patter of the Rain

The quiet of the evening has a sound of ever resonating of drops of rain. The evening is long and darkness came latae Due to the insanity of the Daylight savings interruuption for the next few months. We'll be like zombies just for a while. We'll think in squares of time. And wonder why we ever did... Sign in to see full entry.
