(“Loyalty Merit Badge”, 2010, original oil) Loyal to the Last In a dream I travel Some journey of unknown length or destination. It’s all good at the start And then quickly becomes harder A stalled engine, dirty windshield without fluid, A narrowing road, reduced visibility, A rocky mountain track where I’m forced To carry the bicycle My vehicle has become.

Time and circumstance make strange companions For one is fleeting, and the other happenstance, Still, they walk hand-in-hand through our lives Like when we experience our first love, perchance. Together through the tribulations of our first romance Time and circumstance working together, we see, What is oft characterized as good fortune and fate Unknowingly admitting what was inevitably to be.

Tiny boardwalk along the Halifax River Waiting to see what “catch” nature will deliver Royal Palms’ fronds rustle in fall’s gentle breeze No noisy distractions from teens on their jet skis Cute baby seagull swims above my fishing line Unlike a pet, this bird doesn’t bark, bite or whine He knows me well and I can tell he wants to...
