A Rose in Winter
Withering like a rose in winter, the crown of red dries and turns to dust. A stem so feeble a gentle wind could break it. Spring growing rain. Heat of summer. A gentle kiss from young lovers. Admires eyes gazing at the perfection nature has made. All just fleeting memories. Was it ever young? WasContinue reading “A Rose in Winter”
Heads Up
The first thing I do when I get home is to take my dog to the bathroom. As we head out, walking down the driveway to the yard; a vehicle is driving past. Out of the corner of my eye, I see this black object flying straight toward me. The projectile wizzed by me. YeahContinue reading “Heads Up”
Land
I can’t land. Each time I try, here comes the fan. I can’t land. That looks nice and soft. Forget that plan. I can’t land. People, they might let me stand. I can’t land. A mountain top, far from man. I can’t land. Help me understand. I can’t land. Each time I get close; nope.Continue reading “Land”

To Pass the Time
To pass the time as my clothing dry, I stare out the window watching people below pass by. Watching people is fun. That white car drove around the parking lot for half an hour searching for that pot of gold. But no rain was around. A couple across the way, playing tennis. She and IContinue reading “To Pass the Time”

Always remember what you want to accomplish in your life. Always remember where you want to be in life. Always remember things could getContinue reading “Always”

Dedicated to a Friend
You used to be a real good friend until the fall began. When the eighth came, the friendship came to an end. We were good pals in grade school. I thought I knew you well. I didn’t know you at all. You said you were a friend., that would be forever true. But when theContinue reading “Dedicated to a Friend”
