Road To Recovery Still Battling Empty Nest Syndrome 1st Twitter
many a december twenty forth gone by,
whence wisp of carolers ghosts hauntingly adorn
remembrance of sum...
er things passed along tummy
from ma late ma alm
compunction eruption viz:
fruition, gumption interruption
sans redemption how became re: born
whereby this pop -
bleary eye lids ready to droop
with his tired bones snapping
and popping like jimmy crack corn
an immediate need to succumb to sleep
found me transfixed how blessings did a dorn
mine attention riveted at shrouded foghorn
echoing...choing...hoing
never knowing hands of time didst flap
matthew scott harris,
who yawned avast cingular gap
countless decades swallowed un hap
pulley lost soul within early
twenty something years
devoid of inner GPS to help map
and guide this stricken n fore lorn future pap
though the hour
(at time this got written) nsync kin rap
pa head lee well nigh
closing in on six in the morn
way before synapses snap
crackle and pop,
whereby the sage within mine psyche
waving a finger - tsk tsk - with mild scorn
for forgoing to bed, yet...
a powerful tsunami like force arose up
when viewing the account of how tara - blank -
became rent asunder and torn
from an terrible accident of fate -
though a miraculous recovery now worn.
now fast forward to recent past
receding extremely fast
as if powered by remnant cosmic blast
resulting in avast
blurred montage flickr ring
exercise regimen of running plus lifting weights -
perhaps so many reps of a curl
finds me applauding, huzzahing,
and praising daughter's efforts...so you go girl
with all inner strength pell mell into fitness:
disciplining molding, sculpting- yar body hurl
testing your limits to the max
whether across busy urban streets or...
where landscape offers open space with pearl
jam skies - in outlying less populated tracts -
giving freedom to dance n twirl.
