                DREAM HELPERS


In my dreams, tonight I will dance like crazy...
All around me, things getting sparkly and hazy.

Doing ecstatic rumbas, sambas, tangos~
Maybe a tall, iced drink with a fresh mango?

How...

The bubbles of wealth
used to rise in the glass
and tingle on my lips.
The label that I wore with verve
Skimmed lightly cross my hips

Hair in fashionable disarray
I’d sashay round the town
Always remembering to cross 
My knees whenever I sat down

I was finished y’know in
Switzerland.  I...

Laura Tonon was her name, at the new school my only true friend per se
Astonishingly she’d taken to me, offered to help with my English every day
Unwavering was her big confident smile, even taught me a bit of Italian astray
Rich, she had two of the...

My grandson has a lot of tees
With Mario imprinted.
His sister wears her Ariels,
Her mermaid passion hinted.

Which made me think of certain shirts,
Quite popular back when
I though that Dr. Kildare
Was the handsomest of men.

They didn’t have his picture
But resembled what he wore
And how I wished I...

It all started when Mr. Pie was a little bugger,
Just a wisp of fluff in the palm of your hand.
"Oh, isn't mama's little man the most handsomest EVER?!"
Not a day has gone by when he has argued that point!
"Be careful with all that encouragement" I...

Many people look into the mirror,
and only see their imperfections...
I have mine and laugh about them; 
when famous people go under the knife,
surgeons get rich and to them they bow.


Why perfection is so sought after today?
Not all are born beautiful, some are born deformed,
and those...

Tonight my sweetheart shook his head

                              As fortune cookie note was read

My black cat Samson 
Was my kind of guy
When you hear more
You may wonder why

Happiness was measured 
Without any trouble
By the speed and size
Of his bliss snot bubble

The fluffball cuteness 
At the end of the day
Was that he neatly packed
Each of his whiskers away

On occasion
For...

His face, withered, gaunt
His eyes cloudy, filled with a haunting vacancy
His voice weak , shallow
Seldom spoken these last difficult days

His hair is white and thin
His skin, so delicate and discolored
The strength has left his fragile body
And he lies, waiting

Yet I remember the man who was...

The only one

My heart hopped,
Or I should say ‘stopped’,
I was shocked,
Because with me, he talked!

It’s me, the only one,
Whom he chose,
I’m the luckiest one on the earth,
It is like he has given me a red rose!

I was surprised, he’s so cute!
I stared at him, my...

When I look in my mirror
What do I see
An older lady looking back at me
I don't go out dancing so I sit home alone
No one remembers no one even phones
I used to be the bell of the ball
now I sit home alone not even a...

He left home to pursue his lifetime dream,
it was closer to midnight and the foggy moon had no gleam;
I saw him rushing out to the taxi-cab by dragging his luggage,
all the while he thought he could manage.


His name was Glen, six feet tall with light...

Precious Angel... 
as you are... 
moments in life with you... 
tis an Honor... 
to behold your Loving Treasures... 
tis as you've given unto me... 
such tender-loving kiss's... 
that sweep gently.. 
caressing my cheek.. 
expressing emotions 
tis within your heart.. 
softly whispering.. 
sweet-treasures of love... 
beholding...
