Shark Week Serenade
Shark Week Serenade
It’s Shark Week—let the ocean roar,
A celebration through the tide,
I plunge where blue horizons soar
And let my fascination glide.
Sharks in spotlights, strong and sleek,
Legends in the swirling brine,
They prowl the depths we dare not seek,
With power ancient, fierce, divine.
I marvel at the hammerhead,
The tiger shark in graceful sweep,
The gentle giant’s silent thread—
In every

mama
It is the quite longing in the heart of a man, to dwell in peace with the woman who bore him
To know her not only as a mother but as a sanctuary
There is a sacredness to her voice when it finds you in the middle of a weary week
Calling not for news but

The Week
Sunday, I take out a bowl.
Monday, a spoon.
Tuesday, open a box of Cheerios,
Pour a few in.
Wednesday, the milk.
Thursday, I spoon some in and chew.
Friday, wash the bowl and the spoon.
Saturday, put the bowl back on the shelf,
The spoon in the drawer.
Sunday, I take out a bowl.

In about a week, I'm gonna go see my maker
In about a week, I'm gonna go see my maker,
an old Italian guy, who left me with my present caretaker.
I need to go see him about my nose,
because the damn thing just grows and grows.
My caretaker says it's because I lie,
but I don't know how seriously to take her.

Seven Days
And so it goes, these seven days
Waking up as my music plays,
A new beginning, one of many
A place to start, as good as any
The second day is rarely bad …
Enjoying whatever weather we'd had,
While checking the mail for a letter
Taking a breath and feeling better
Quietly, in comes the third …
With a silence that is

Breath of the Week
You’re the whisper of peace in the air
A sigh of the earth, no burdens to bear
Wrapped in the warmth of soft, golden light
A moment suspended, holding the night
The sky paints its hues
Brushed with shades of blue
Today feels like purpose
Drawing me to you
For you are the stillness that breathes
A hush of grace where the heart believes
So

THE START OF ANOTHER SAD WEEK
Some years ago a great man was born this week
He was my beautiful son
He had such a big heart that is hard to describe
I saw in his short life grow into a great man
And he always had a lot of great fans
It was a great privilege to watch him grow in front of my eyes
Another
