Best Repaired Poems

Seems I always come to You when things aren’t going well
Sometimes feeling cursed, deservedly so, but hurting inside
Knowing well I’ve had more than my share of good
Misused the blessings  but kept returning for more
Could have made better decisions, now I see
Could have thought before...

Twenty-nine years ago my heart gave up on me 
Just sixteen days following my fiftieth birthday, 
attacked like a ton of bricks, suddenly, on a 
Sunday evening, toward the close of the day. 

A heavy wet snow had blanketed the ground

A battered woman in tattered cloths huddled beneath an oak.
Befuddled by the stranger’s gaze as he handed her his cloak.
Unwittingly, her lips curled up as her tangled hair she stroke.
Her pale blue eyes began to tear as she looked upon the bloke.

Her yesterdays were filled...

my spirit renewed...

It is not known to what place.
Some voices count
How was it in...

This morning, I arrived at the Station,
Gave the Swan Hill V-Line train a miss,
The same train which I travelled
Exactly one year ago.
When I had a relaxing and peaceful time,
At the border of NSW and Victoria.
It turned out I should catch the missed train,
