The Thoughts of a Bi-Polar
Who am I and what am I to say?,
All I've got to do is play,
Along in a game I don't understand,
Make people come to my land,
A deal that you don't think about,
Something thats going to start out,
A trend that will last for years,
Making people come...

Premium Member Things That Annoy Me
I reckon you could call me an old curmudgeon but that's alright!
I've been around four score and three and I have earned that right!
There are many things that annoy me but I'll mention just a few.
Hang in there with me as I attempt to get...

I'M Coming Home
As I wave goodbye and walk away the kisses and cuddles from my loved ones still fresh in my mind I set my sights on what will be my new daily grind.  To Afghanistan I flew  to fight for my country, I’m ...

Book: Radiant Verses: A Journey Through Inspiring Poetry



'god Blessed Us'- Thanks
How thankful can one woman really be? Is there a limit to how deep gratitude flows- a way to measure how much love I hold in my heart for my family? Forty-years of Thanksgiving meals shared next to the ones who adore me the most....

The Instance of Never
I could not bear this war between logic and love,
But remembering her face once again levitates my mind afloat,
Into the heavens my mind gracefully flies like a gleeful little dove,
And there I see reality once gain like a vast bottomless moat

I can never get across...

The Someones---Angels On This Earth
"The Someones....Angels On This Earth"


    I once saw a man offer to take a homeless man into a restaurant and get him something to eat other than "discarded" food!   (That day he ate quite well!)
    I once...

Green Colored Grass
Green Colored Grass
   
 The grass is always greener on the other side of the fence,
But that fence is so high off the ground.
I search for a ladder so I can get across,
But neither a ladder or even a foot stool can be...

Premium Member Year of the Stingray
Looking at an old photo of myself at age 13,
I see a girl, rail-thin, but on the verge of womanhood.
Her hair hangs in long pigtails and she wears a modest top with shorts
as she sits posing on her brand new bike, grinning happily at the...

Premium Member Daylight Burning
One day while wan’dring far afield 
I heard a tortoise shriek 
“Oh, curse this shell, infernal cell…
I haven’t got all week!”

I dropped down low, I snuck up slow 
then spied him through the brush
and though he scarcely moved an inch
he wailed, “I’m in a rush!”

Cocaine Apple Sauce
Cocaine
Apple sauce
In my vein
Can't get across
I do it every day
Every night
I can't pay
Now I'm about to fight
I'm trying to get some from the store
I even smoked some off the floor
Chicken fingers and roast beef
Salads and a roasted leaf
Drugs and apples are the best
Because of it...

The Hobbit and Lord of the Rings
12/22/14



Props to the original Baggins
And his bravery towards the dragons
While he could've stayed behind with the wagons


Just a hobbit and quite the comic
But he should've watched it
And use all logic
Before trying to put on the ring inside of his pocket
Because another was unfortunate and lost...

Life, Love and My Poetry
I can’t say if my grandma was possessive
The way my mother was
I can’t even imagine if my grandpa was possessive
The way my father was
The fate of my mother can’t become mine
Probably, my mental possessiveness towards my children 
Is just a lucrative illusion
But the reality is...

Hope we'll always remember when,
               A time when all of this began;
          Every day, we spent, us two
