Small Houses
Small houses are big when you’re sitting by yourself. The memories of the kids tumble from the shelf; they’re old photos now, they don’t seem grown to me; But one is the Army and the other out to sea! And the little one, my princess, as cute as can be— what I wouldn’t give to watch her climb another...

WEIGHING ANCHOR?
I am only a port of call your splendid vessel at my pier cautiously resting in the waters of protocol. The unsettled stillness, an omen of fear. The sails filled with adoration...now draping, receding tides find me wandering amiss. Waves of contentment caressing my shores, now escaping; as the North...

COMPUTERS ~~~ GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR
Faith Faith is sharing a special conviction with my beloved each day. I abide; I listen for Him in the meanwhile I pray. Our time together mysterious; our outings quite wondrous! There are times we're outdoors; other times behind closed doors! I affirm The door we share is always open in a very...

MASQUERADE [My computer is still a mess]
[I will try to read today; but, I will catch up as soon as this mess is resolved!] In October of each year I don a mask to disguise my jeer. My deception, in amusement, meant to mystify! My sincerity, my domino, my alibi my concealment, deception in frolic, invisibly adorned clothed in rhetoric. My...

Games People Play
My time with you, a chess game ~ check to false checkmate to stalemate... (no one won, no master of the game). In retrospection: Our courtship [HA!], a domino effect ~ set them up, knock them down, set then up, knock them... (no one wins, the pip faded from the tile). Years rolling by, a dice toss...

Do you remember when?
Do you remember when you climbed you first tree hiding from the other children who were shouting for you with glee and how bold you felt while clinging to branches fearfully wondering how you might get yourself down from the tree? Do you remember when your turned one and twenty? The world your...

PLEASE! DO NOT E-mail Me! My Computer Is Infected! Red Alert!
An Orlop Up from the orlop I climb to the wheelhouse and I do this trek each day, but only in my mind. High seas of dismay keep me shackled, the key lays on the floor next to me and still I keep myself bound! Shackles, ghostly chains, yet real! Choka (Japanese for long poem) Syllable count: 5,7, 5,...

In My House
I sit on the earth in my house up in the garret. I look & the city moves like a miming parrot. I do this each day paralyzed in fear although I don’t why this is. I read about these types of afflictions, the ones that can’t be explained but they’re there, it’s my biz! I know I’m not the only one in...

The Moment [My Team Is In A 1 Game Playoff Today In Baseball -- Go Tigers]
The Moment My mind steals the moment dominating the ‘in vogue’ taking me to places I would rather not visit, places I buried in my mind so long ago. I put them in a place of rest, why must they come abreast? Of these places in my mind it’s haunting, then comforting then quickly remorseful conundrum....

Deep Into The Woods
Deep into the words and there are many of them; I have personal favorites, the ones that change my life, and it so different when one is deep into the woods. In the Sequoia, if the land could speak, it would speak of Native Americans, their drums echoing in my mind [and quaking aspens] reminding me...
