Closes all doors
I knew, and you knew, that if I listened to "Unchained Melody,"
I would have given up yesterday. Without the praises and disappointments, those long, deep sighs experienced during moments of passion, our love felt superficial in comparison. Everything changed when I saw his face in my dreams. Suddenly, the sweet melodies of Gheorghe Zamfir's...

for he was fascinated with her creativity, her wildness and her lack of rules
limits had never applied to her, she was a free-spirit,
someone unlike anyone he had ever met
He feared if he did not capture her heart
he would continue on in his unsatisfying, misunderstood, angry life path....

Celebrate from Dawn till DuskSmall sized; bouncy balloon poppin’ at the break of dawn.
Countless children; swiftly skipping, emit plentiful smiles of joy!
Hovering high, confetti spills like salt, sheer thrills!
Rising and riding, the sunny sun heats up from within.
Diligently dancing, with what is a fervor,
Now, coolness meets my eyes; miraculous mighty night.
Silent nice night; massive moon,
Spontaneous silver moon, why would...

Sun-Shiny SaturdaySomewhat seem Spellbound,
by the subtle and soft...
surrounding sounds,
and the sensational surreal,
spectacular scenery,
somewhere on the south side...
of- "San Salvador"
Sunbathing in silence...
on the sandy seashore's shoreline,
and sulking up the sunrays,
in the scorching yet soothing
and self-satisfying,
sublime...
sun!...

Cranium Composure CompromisedCalendar commences, conviviality,
kids kvetch knishes cold,
cantaloupe crappy,
kids constantly crunching cookies,
cake, candy.
Could kayaking, canoeing, camping
in Canada cure cantankerous
children's contention?
Can caddying at the country club
conquer kid's complaining?
chaos could conduce calamity,
kindred claiming complete cuckoo-ness,
summer sanity-stealing s'mores scavengers!...

Emma and DeaconEmma, Empress of Unicorn Empire,
esprit de corps of elementary school,
expeditious at exaggerating expression,
eagerly extending empathy of enormous embrace,
endless enthusiasm, exuberant existence.
Deacon, Duke of derring-do,
diligently, doggedly daily to delightful displays
of dauntless daredevil, destruction,
determined gamer, droll demeanor,
dearly dedicated to devouring desserts,
Dad's double, diplomat of Dreamland....

Maybe we Should go make Sand castles in the Sunny Skies...

j u n k y a r dJolly good time
Under the railroad tracks
Never know what you might find
Kalidescope of possibilities
You accumulate a pile of goodies
Alchemists would be jealous
Relishing my variety of dubious choices
Delightful place to find treasure, car parts, used gum...

Touch Grass
The sun sinks slow when dreaded dark overflows
giving mere mortals moments to reflect
all that passes in the day these moments take away
and each influence intrinsically inspect
we have known of old the conflict we are told
is the battle between bad and good
what is right, what is wrong, we must make morals strong
gain empathy, love, and...
