rain pours in pitter patters....

St Pattys Day Limerick L. Milton Hankins
Twas in his cups, drinking bitter ale.
His name McGonahill, first name Kale.
Irish girl gave him wink
He sputtered came up pink
A big plotter, Miss Katie O’Dale.
She would make him a respectable sort.
His friend Collum laughed, gave a little snort.
She gave him the eye too
Super good Irish shrew
On Patty’s Day they all three now cavort.
There’s a set of twins that now hang with them.
Names Paddy and Leprechaun Shawn McFinn.
We watch but do not stare
Drink green beer without a care
In McGongill’s Boar Tavern, oh, so grim.

The “Piano Man”
Has abandoned and I say
“Let it be”
“someone like you”
“imagine” will rescue me again
“Don’t stop believing”!

intricate building blocks
years of living stack together
carefully laid stones
gracefully holding steady
though built upon the sand
melded, become strong

old damaged piano
once caressed by skilled fingers
now silenced forever
what masterly hands
unlocked pure magical music via
your ivory keys

on lonesome journey
pick shingles of life from
shore of time
with poised dreams
build castle tsunami won’t shatter
making memory debris
