The eyes of a child - illustrated

Through the eyes of a child the world flows in. Brand new. Unsullied. No sorting, rating, categorizing just pure amazement and wonder. A rock, A butterfly. A puddle of mud. Clouds hanging lazily in a pure blue sky. All the same in the child’s eye. Do they look at you or through you? Are they... Sign in to see full entry.

Random Dreams

Days flow past The past flows into days Day in and day out Until we are out of days Then we start over Monday… Captain’s Log Cedar, Cedrus outer spacius The cats come screaming by Keeping syncopated rhythm With the tambourine man Who is also tangerine man Orange juice glad? Knock, knock Backwards... Sign in to see full entry.

What if…

She feels the warmth of his hand her hand trembles, their eyes lock. Smoldering lust just beneath the surface. They are on way up the eleveator to a clandestine room. They can’t wait. Deep kisses ensue, knee weakening kisses. Deep breathing kisses. Each can hardly wait, after all… she has never... Sign in to see full entry.

Thoughts lurking in the shadows

In the lurking shadows Clown smiles paint the night Or is it the stars Reflecting off a rain puddle Just right? It was a short ride That went too far Coming back Before it began. I thought it was Déjà vu I couldn’t remember the color I had seen before I think it was blue. Swayed shoes Shimmy across... Sign in to see full entry.

Disconnected internet blues

Due to remodeling, our internet was down for two days, which caused some musing on this condition: To whit... I sit, Alone apart from the world which keeps turning, but you wouldn’t know it here. Internet is down. Satellite TV is down. Local radio headline news: High school baseball, one team will... Sign in to see full entry.

Fate jumps it's tracks

When my footsteps wander outside of their tracks life has taken charge and I seem to be only along for the ride. Change finds me in my pocket riding along not knowing where fate is going.

A new wrinkle.

I stayed too long in the shower The instructions said one minute I languished for an hour. The water was nearly freezing and the shivers made it so I couldn’t hold on to the soap I was squeezing. My face, now undecipherable as an ancient rune. I once looked like Paul Newman. Now I just look like a... Sign in to see full entry.

Thoughts in the mist.

There are times when I can’t think and there are times when I can think. Sometimes I can’t tell the difference, I think. I had an original thought once, but it was in a language no one understands. At least that’s what I think. My cat’s in a tree staring down at me, thinking that she hadn’t thought... Sign in to see full entry.
