Best Tasks Poems

Dew drops grace green grasses
Soothing like my pearly power shower
I choose the right outfit for an orange day
Under the fruit bowl by Vincent Van Gogh 
Breakfast bar stool welcomes hungry hips
Honey dew melon kisses lips
Pray meditate talk to God and myself 
Water plants feed perky...

Incline to His Word, having been divine nature receivers
Nurtured with Scriptures' truthfulness...
Gear toward faithful stewardship, being spiritual thrivers!

Godly pursuits delight the Lord’s heart---
Offering opportunities to please Him with faith’s fervency…

Oh how wonderful it is to be alive. Oh how wonderful it is to be able to grow; mentally and maybe even physically. But what kind of happiness do you extract from the success you achieve? The rush of happiness that cannot last until you...

Everyone's seen the morning sun
the light slants and the blood-splattered sky
the full moon's sliced off to night's dark face
on to the TV screen, Facebook or Whatsup
seasons arrive and go, to return once more

the hat tilts to shade
in the rainy...

You probably won't believe me, These rumors you hear are true.
When I'm not at my job, I have other tasks to do.

I don't care how long it takes,No matter what I think.

No...

He is retired;
His duties with care he carried!
He appears wired
Remembering unfinished tasks – 
Two daughters at home unmarried … 
As his benefits are tarried,
He’s found expired!

the new normal

I'm isolated, waiting
at home with my wife
adapting like others
to our normal new life

a few days, no problem
a week, it's a breeze
but, nobody said
there would be days like these

at first it was easy
cleaning, watching tv
I dusted, did windows
even cut back a tree

i worked in...

Maria hums to the tune of “Taps” as she scoops out the betta
One red, one blue, Wiggles got ick, now it’s just Padma blue
Doorbell rings, ding dong, Maria rushes to answer, Ahh, Greek feta
The delivery guy left as the maid pounded on the screen, birds...

Freddie the furlough 
Sat there with his Merlot 
Watching the sun go up and down
While his body got tan and brown 
They said they had full control 
That is what Freddie the Furlough was told 
Sitting in his cubicle one day 
They came over to...

Endless tasks I chase,
But meaning slips through my hands—
What am I doing?...

Time tarries not for anyone,
Still, I can't outpace my shadow.
Forever chasing what’s begun,
Success, in its season, will show.

Though dreams remain still unrelieved,
And countless tasks are left undone.

Old age begins its quiet reign,
The clock moves fast with every...
