I am from sitting in the front row church pew I never wanted to be in twice. The genuine smiles in the photos on the memory board were oh-so-different from The ones we plastered on at the American Legion and the Irish pub There we gulped bottomless Shirley Temples and spent twenty dollars on darts. All to distract ourselves...

He planned on moving out This place that held the living dead These halls that magnified the screams His wristband said otherwise Trapped here for life Though it would be a temporary stay In a way You could tell from the state of his mind And the stare of his eyes That he didn't have to wait too much longer To leave these haunted halls He...

A Senior Citizen any day Blessed to wake up hooray Through the aches and pain Sometimes the need to complain Memory sometimes in forget Enjoyment of retirement blitz Carefree sensation Surrounded by family and Grandchildren Forget the Nursing Home Always a need to walk and talk Enriched spirit Wanting to enjoy and live Breath of Life Embracing refreshing flowers Sometimes for hours Oasis of their own Rocking Chair moments Reflecting on...

Aarohi, it took me so long to meet the tiger inside me. It took me so long to let the sparrow inside me go. Now that I can sing out like a thunderstorm, I hope that you can hear the determination you come from; I hope you know that you are not a limitation. You are the fearless agent prowling in the...

A good man is hard to find, just as my Nana always said. That day, I witnessed tears in her eyes as she firmly stuffed the monthly tithe into the envelope and headed to church that Sunday morning. Earlier, she had been rightfully screaming at my granddad for hours. She was furious with the old...
