Kids do not understand how losing works 
perhaps they don't know what endeavor means.

spirit grass

wind wanders through 
invisible bison graze
raise dust devils that flirt with larks
buzzing insects in the air
swirl dip rise into the sun

swishes almost whispers
play around ears 
not quite within range for words
ghosts less than clear
more than shadows, skydance

green blades reach
between the bones of children
grandmothers, mothers,...

His feeling you hurt.
But he never listens to what you have to say.
Trying to wash dishes, it just gets to you.

Just finish the dishes and walk away.
Here he goes again. 
You don't do anything, he says.
Yes I do,...

The cat, with the bassinet, the little furry presence
And Sameeha’s science club chapstick
And I thought I was kissing scientific a book cover
Where...

Nature's fury bellows
Reminding all exactly who's in charge,
Aggressive and noisy wind, mother's
personal thug, acting all big and large,

Though, for all her wrong doing and her faults,
she also does a lot of good, like the beauty always shown, 
Filling this world...

Within my mind are dusty cobwebs
 where drafty breathings edge the corners of remembering
 as they hold in a picture stilled that looms, 
unchanged but not for lack of a broom;
 school books, pads and pens, and bookbag piled high, 
 uniform dress, blouse, and...

Miracle Man
October 25, 2023

Much broadcast news tends to border a lie,
when the truth fits much better I oft wonder why.

Much news has a slant meant to benefit a view,
some dig through the archives airing it as new.

Too many choose to play around with...

 It's a nice day and

Worry, has it's place in life,
with fear, your plans, 
how to survive,

why worry.
worry see's the future risk,
your car is broken how to fix
your plan to overcome, 

you think about the problem,
sometimes with thoughts severe, 
looking for solutions,
your mind goes round and round,

why worry,
worry builds the...

Sitting under a tree, old and grey
No flowers to bloom, leaves falling down
Birds desert the nests, no one to play around
The clouds are around, they hold no charm
Gave shade to many, no one to shade us
Waiting to fall one day, are we made for each...
