                                                     falls from the windows
                                                 of the house where you live
                                                 trickling droplets of  emotion
                                                to hard to handle finally let go
                                               relieving the strain of your pain
                                              they fall from your eyes like rain
                                                 until you are  totally drained
                                                   so you can rise up again 
                                                       to play the game

Country Roads

I'm on a road with no end in sight that brought me here to be with you even through the nights. What I'm holding near is also whispering in my ear bringing cheer and joy across the land with God's right hand. I'm walking through a field of clover finding room to cross over wearing my coat of many colors that also look like the flowers I see in front of me that smell so sweet nearly knocking me off my feet. It's on a uncloudy day with not much to say as I pray also for you today,out sight and out of mind freeing up time as it unwinds standing underneath a blanket of love sent down from above. On a sea of love in the middle of nowhere in the middle of the day, wandering if we will cross paths today.

Microsoft Found Poem One

This is the first of five found poems based on Microsoft dictation trials.  I took the verbatim text filled with gibberish and put into poetic stanzas otherwise no editing. 


Her and they moved to
a the final inspection went well
with E wall
 back to the apartment

 and brown 
we had left the keys 
are in the car 

but fortunately
 we ran two 
are rules that TV does not 

ruin were bought 
baby by Jews
 they’ll be able to see you 
and your evening 

we win 
two Home Depot and Costco 
and then who can free pizza 
for dinner we want to eastern market 
and shot the movie 
dress report to the berber
 back home 
and went to bed 
about the nine 

the dictation is working up 
from 50% of the time 
cue-card will keep 
the hope that the difference 
in win over to 

in the meantime 
I will keep brokerage 
and user to ride 
bay from all working

you in this
 is Trevor Rowe junior middle school? 

Microsoft did tuition
 continues two 50% 
of the time 
one the visual dictation data 
his sometimes schuler’s 
shall I am sure

 even when you shoot a film, 
today we’ll meet with Perot’s 
to turn over the key 
and then paid the porch
 and weather permits 

and then maybe have dinner 
with more drivers 
wore see the movie 
Mama Mia 

should be a good 
if I have time 
High-level
 also do some solutions all

Still having problems with my group
 saw fit to Asia 
still very strange 
each results 
it’s well as run 
the south: today in that age

...............Jingle bells all the way
...............Huddles laughters joys
................Santa comes on sleigh
................A glistening white sheet

..................Keeping my little cat busy
..................Laden with sparkling goodies

Without these Christmas glories
