Faith, Hope And Charity

Three sisters; Faith, Hope, Charity and me
were swimming naked in the moonlight
all together in a sea of tranquility
when gravity threw Hope across the water
it really shouldn't oughta
as that left Faith, Charity and I
but Faith departed can't think why
perhaps because three's a crowd
yet Charity remained unbowed
so to her I gave a tender kiss
not thinking it would

DAILY GRATITUDE LESSON I LEARNED

I am grateful I learned this lesson early…
that travels with me everywhere….
People, instead of caring about how much I know….
would much rather like to know how much I care.

I Learned Gardening from my Parents

My mother had a way with green plants
They wanted to please her, and so they did.
She took cuttings and gave them to neighbors.
Millions of cuttings. Provided the town with cuttings.

We kids were gardening as soon as we could walk.
Out in the country, on grandpa’s land.
An enormous garden plowed by a tractor.
Our garden was the size

BIRTHDAYS

What do you know about birthdays?
A cake and warm wishes?
Different gifts wrapped with cards?
Or a lonely day that proves—

That proves a year has sunk,
And marks a new beginning—
Maybe for something better,
Or just a quiet Monday morning.

After a rough weekend of fun,
And bills paid worth a month,
With friends who came just for fun—
Or just a grey

Something To Be Learned

If there's something to be learned
from this hurtful situation is to think hard, 
avoid judgement to stop harsh words;
even the crazy thought of changing chords
to a song that sounds beautiful
and make us feel so wonderful!

When our anger breaks out
we are no longer
kind to each other,
only two idiots in a fight!
Suspecion breaks up hearts full of

I Learned Love And Life With Its Torn

Life is living more than a day
This includes love, joy, fun
Mistakes, sadness and education
I also see gentle side of life
When I feel like everything
Is falling apart, I don't forget
Everyday to give thanks to God
Giving thanks to people who give me love
Giving thanks is a privilege.

Samantha learned new ways in the big city

Samantha was a small-town girl
Taught to never ignore or turn her back on anyone
She developed a thicker skin in the city
Where she had to learn to turn her back and ignore
It was not her norm, but necessary
For there were either more narcissists and conmen here
Or they were not as easily pointed out by an entire

I Thought I Learned All I Could About Love

I Thought I Learned All I Could About Love

I thought I learned all I could about love—
how it bends like willow branches
and breaks like brittle glass,
how it hums in the quiet of a held breath
and vanishes in the space of a sigh.

I knew its patterns, its rising and falling,
the way it lingers in the scent

I have learned to exist in the shadows, to slip through glances

I have learned to exist in the shadows, to slip through glances,
To be invisible in a crowd of faces, a different face for every room,
A sweet smile for strangers, a false tenderness for lovers,
A deep silence that echoes in my soul, an emptiness I keep only for myself.
I have been everything they wanted to see

Learned from them

First came one little grandchild held so tight. 

Then came the second, our grip was mild 

Finally, our third, and all was wild. 

Hon and I hold back, until we are asked 

Our grandkids experiencing freedom at last.

Dreamer and The Dreamed

As a child I loved to dream,  
making my days and nights grand.
Reading made my dreams come true,
far off places I wanted to see.
As the many years went by,
some dreams came true,
others lay dying.
What I learned through the years,
as an entity in the dream we conjured-
we know not we are-
both the dreamer and dreamed.

Lessons Learned

The lessons learned when we were young
From fairy tales and nursery rhymes
Were meant to help us grow up strong
As up the hill we climb.

So, don’t forget the stories told
When we would lie down in our beds
As slowly, surely, we grow old
We keep them in our heads.

What captivates a child’s mind
To grown-ups might not seem profound.

  Onyx black no diamond twinkling stars doth fill the sky, just the silver light from a winter’s moon shines down  upon emerald coloured grass both dark and bright, under melting snow from the northern tempest, which to pastures new hath it moved.

A Lesson Learned

Charles Green was eight years old, and his father was a great teacher.
Yet, Charlie preferred playing to school; because he was a daydreamer.

The Greens lived in the town of Ivoria, where dahlias nodded greeting;
And Charlie frolicked with Sam and Scarlett, until sun came, bleeding.

Samuel and Scarlett were his siblings. Both got good grades in school;
