MY FUTURE SELF
Maybe when I’m making sense of the past You’ll see my lenses are rose tinted glass Finding old memories, once locked away Unwrapping highlights to put on display Triumphant tales of those former glories Uniquely retold as old war stories Regrets will remain, but kept in their place Each one secure in its own little case Sitting back, my working life will...

In the lovely Dublin theater where dreams are fulfilled excited spectators hushed In the silence of the night with avid expectancy, Bucks Fizz entered the stage his music is a hidden gem  waiting to be performed In a lovely breeze a mellow silk thread was spun akin to the moon's silky glow I have hopeful dreams. In the song 'Making Your Mind Up,'  they sang with clear voices the...

Highlights From Highland Manor
Highlights from Highland Manor Courtesy Goofus and Gallant who began their broadly-drawn moral plays in the 1950s, initially depicted as identical twins, but later on, editors for Highlights indicated the two were brothers, but not twins, and by 1995, they simply existed as two unrelated boys. Analogously, ineptly, and uniformly juxtaposed slipshod verse best flushed down toilet or slid down...

Teaching Highlights
Been teaching for nigh on fifty years, Became a tutor later, my dears, I've taught a bit of everything, Maths and literacy my bells ring, Teaching highlights can be fun, When these Einsteins were so young, An octopus has eight testicles, I did read that with my spectacles, Mozart sailed to Vietnam, you know, We lost Vienna on the overthrow, "We don't need no education!"...

Sunlight shimmers through blades of grass And the wall of leaves on all the trees Shades of green show high and low Surrounding me with comforting color Nature’s language is heard in the breeze The birds sing along on this sunny day All the while, the clouds float on by And the sun keeps sending its rays Leaving highlights everywhere to see Shining on,...

Premium Member Highlights of Fall
I love brisk walks on breezy days; I’m mesmerized by fall's displays. Time’s limited. Cold weather stalks. On breezy days, I love brisk walks. October ends with trick-or-treat. Our visitors want something sweet. Each costumed kid then homeward wends. With trick-or-treat, October ends. November comes, cold winds in tow, Thanksgiving feasts, and fireplace glow; short days, hoarfrost, last pots of mums. Cold winds in tow,...

I traveled on the road today Wind whistled, as the miles passed Gray clouds hugged the mountains my way As deep thoughts flew on by so fast Fog kept the mountain top hidden The trees were still, before the storm Some sights seemed to be forbidden Nature’s highlights in a rare form Seasons change while hurricanes loom Cool and warm air swirl together Slowly, the...
