Early Days of Wedded Bliss

Gold ring procured from Navy exchange

     Merry-go-round petals etched in black

Two lives in rearrange

     Gifted a wedding plaque

I was expecting; he had tonsillitis

My Early Days Upon This Earth

My early days upon this earth
was filled with questions and disquiet
not knowing where would I end up
perplexed mixed up my mind felt on a diet

These days lasted a whole six weeks
in that time all uncertain full of doubt
feeling unloved, unwanted and all forsaken
thinking what is this world all about?

After birth is given up by my

Way Back In the Early Days

In the beginnings of this old world
I was there living among the woods
surviving in the wilds anyway I could
eating loads of fruit among other foods

But there was one big problem
Dinosaurs roamed about back then
eating up whatever they could find
anything would do even us men

So I had to wear camouflage
to deceive these creatures so

But after school it was home again
And the overcrowding

Ah yes, I am learning from

Early Days

Early Days

The highchair beside the kitchen door
my domain, vantage point of my world
on the linoleum checker board floor
I played until my knees were sore

to grow into what I might be

A world consisting of black and white
as appropriate

Plastic Bag : the Early Days

PLASTIC  BAG  :  THE  EARLY  DAYS

They said we all had a shining future, with bright lights, 
Advertising panels, and supermarket voice-over mentions 
Of  high-quality “cellophane presentation wrappers” 
Of fruit  -  suitable even as a gift wraps

We enjoyed peer support from other plastic bags
We were all in it
