Changing Moods

Yesterday showers fell upon a gentle face
today they enter the world of a different pace,
when one you take on a roller coaster ride
on to heaven then deep in despair nowhere to hide,
as darkness descends upon each avenue
eyes adjust as guiding lamps of one’s sinew,
before the mind searches vigorously for reasons
and veils of your face I see like the changing seasons.

Some days one of down hearted total dejection
some days an offer of heaven's welcoming crutch,
some days with in the abyss I fall into infection
some days from out of the darkness your hand i touch!

Harry, I'm glad I remembered to come and find one of your poems before going off tonight. Wow, I just loved how you ended this one. Falling into an abyss and then contrasted with touching the hand of a loved one in the darkness. A great finishing touch.

Dear Harry, my name is Kenny Potter, I am a former student of Chef's whom you know as Harry or HG. I don't know if you read his last blog(I wrote) I am asking his Family: Poetry Soup to soup mail him, asking him to use his portable oxygen tank at least 8 hours a day. His quote to me "I am not walking around with tubes up my nose and a mask on my face" If enough of his Family request this He can live at his cabin (HOME) Family is very big to Chef Respectfully Yours Kenny A Fledgling Poet
