Deal With Appeal

Deal With Appeal

Wrote this while watching the news.

Already did have much appeal
Trying to come up with a deal;
After all bugs were worked out,
And beyond shadow of a doubt,
Are able to complete and seal.

Del is one of our best friends (1500 on 4/8/2017)
from Wichita, Kansas and was
usher at our wedding. He and
his wife are visiting us.

About Del we always do tease;
He seems so perfectly at ease;
His demeanor is to be relaxed;
Never bothered or ever taxed;
Ability continues to increase.

Found A Feeling

Saw several African children
on the news and wrote this
poem.

Saw their faces and found a feeling
Of much joy from floor to the ceiling;
Shiny bright teeth with great smile;
Were waiting to greet me for a while.

Never forgot first sight I had seen,
Wearing casual clothes and blue jean;
Others with clothes from native land
For them by God had been planned.

Everyone erupted with much emotion;
Filled with all their love and devotion;
Together they always peacefully play
And with God have another great day.

Had Hoped to Find

Started sorting and was hard to tell
Which one would be my favorite shell; 
Did consistently, constantly, compare
Lying by beach shore here and there.

Were round and others oblong and odd
That had been made by our great God;
All of various colors and many designs;
Several with spiral and also curvy lines.

Through shells did separate and strain
And ocean waves played a sweet refrain
Asking me why I became a big creep;
God's precious shells trying to keep.

In each day mornings will always break
So I then said to myself for goodness sake
Will be best if lovely shells are left behind
For others who often had hoped to find.

Think that what I will do is just add 
newest poem I wrote to most recent
poem that is in my list. In that way,
message saying I have already written 
my daily amount of poems will not
affect me. I can add date and time
I completed it to it.

I added the rest into one poem so
I can print them all up at the same 
time to read Sunday 4/9/2017 at
3 PM at Poetry Revisited in Shallotte,
NC at Arbor Landing Retirement
Center.
