Something I was reminded of today

The Wordless Book It all started shortly after my grandmother died. My mom was named head of the estate. She had to take care of all those things my grandmother left behind. At this point my mother's sister in law Abbey arrived. Now, auntie Abbey as we called her, was a CEO for Walt Disney Films and... Sign in to see full entry.

My heart goes out to Paris and all those who have suffered terrorist attacks. This world is darkening. The time of Christ's return draws nearer and nearer. I pray for those in suffering, for those who have lost and I prayed for those who have yet to find. Be wary, my friends, but take comfort in... Sign in to see full entry.

Pizza Poem

My sister brought home pizza, She is dis-satisfied, Not enough toppings not enough cheese, Low quality I agree, But not horrible. But, I'm wrong apparently. My sister proceeds in the usual sir of lecture. Oh the bad pizza, Oh others are so much better, Oh how foolish I am to show it mercy, Mom... Sign in to see full entry.

A pretty cool analogy I made up. Could fit a variety of things

Ships Sailing by a Harbor I am a harbor, a gleaming jewel at the edge of the water. The water is flat, blue and spreads as far as the eye can see. Just as possibilities do. I watch as a handsome ship comes by. The wind catches it's sails and it glides on the water with such ease. For a moment I... Sign in to see full entry.

Music

Through the Eyes of Song. I see, I feel my soul suspended, Rising to the sun and igniting with fire, Staves are walls, Notes are stars twinkling around me, Endless glitter rushing like a river The world through the eyes of song. The song is its own atmosphere, Its own sunrise, its own sunset It is a... Sign in to see full entry.

Written for My Sister's Graduation

That Teacher I remember that teacher I had, She made me kind of mad, But now that I think of all I learned, I am actually glad. She pushed me hard, Out of my cozy limits, When I said that the dog ate it She knew it was a gimmick. I remember all those times When I didn’t do as I should, She didn’t...

In honor of the upcoming holiday

To the Veteran Your work is often ignored, Sidelined, Unmentioned, Even abhored. Your work is hard. Far, So few see its ugliness, Dirt and blood, Death and waste, Horror beyond mere words, Some scars too deep to be seen or heard. Your work, Some ignorantly label it a vice, Seeming to forget the...

From over my sign at work

Observance of Yonder Web Over my sign, A silken web hangs, For a moment I ponder, The spider What must he think, Watching us from above. To be honest all that I care Is that he stays up there. Sign in to see full entry.

Yet another entry on people interaction

Is he Flirting with Me? I walk in my place of work, Zoning they call it, Straighten arrangements, Pick up anything that has fallen. There is one fellow, I ask him a question, I cannot be certain which makes me quite miffed, But it seemed that his demeanor did shift, There is a pause before he... Sign in to see full entry.

On recent events

A new position comes with a new cluster of people, I'm an introvert and perhaps it was just my imagination, Or maybe a warranted frustration, They group, They talk, Camaraderie I want to be apart of, I put in a remark, For a moment their energy seems to drain, As if I hit some sort of off switch....
