I made you cookies...and braided your hair
I walked you through Mother Goose and skinned knees
Once when you were nine, and wanted to run away from home
I helped you pack your bag...you cried...
Of course, you only got as far as the end of the driveway, that first time
When you were eleven, and wanted to run away from home,
I stuffed two dollars in your pocket,...you cried....
And I told you to look both ways before crossing the street...
You got as far as the corner,... before turning back.
Then came the day, you really left home....
You were heading to college
That time I watched....and I cried....
But you found your way back....
I cried again..when you were married...good tears...
but this time I knew ...God willing, ....you wouldn't need to come back...
You became a mother....and on that day....for the very first time did we...
truly know....
understand....
and appreciate each other
My Daughter... I love you very very much...Happy Mother's Day
Dear Time,
I can’t tell if you’re my enemy or my best friend. It never occurred to me till now that children have no problem with you. You never hear a child complain that there’s not enough time. So obviously, it’s the Adult in me that has all the issues.
I’m not sure where the idea came from that 24 hours was not enough for me and I had the right to be unhappy about it. I’ve made various attempts to set goals, prioritize, track. I was always so much better with the ToDo part, but not so good with celebrating my accomplishments or even taking stock of them. There’s never been a happy marriage between me and you. It was one-sided and all about work work work. There was never enough play.
I need to finally make peace with you. I can’t go through the rest of my life angry at you or continuing to feel inadequate.
These last couple of days I’ve been thinking about my Legacy. That’s obviously a lifetime project with building blocks. So I’d like to be friends and work with you as a team.
Maybe I can just start each morning by saying that, if all goes well, I have 24 hours just like everyone else. What do I want to accomplish in those hours and what can wait until tomorrow, God willing.
I’m really glad we had this talk.

So far it's been 35 years since I started to roam the Earth, You only stood in my life from birth until i was 11months then left me with no trace not even a word.
I try to forget about you but in my mind you still creep in, Why put me through this mental torture was I such a sin ? I'm surprised you didn't throw me into a trash bin.
At times I fall asleep with tears in my eyes wondering what was your reasons for disappearing, also wondering if you did the same to my unknown siblings.
In fact it's a whole half of my bloodline that I don't know, Did you even advise them of my existence ? How can you as a "Woman" have a Heart so cold ?
As I grew older I tried to track you exhausting many options and logic, I guess I have better chances of meeting Jesus before we ever discuss this topic.
I was raised by my Paternal side of the Family who nurtured and watched me grow, Now I found the Woman who I will soon marry God willing adopt some children and start my own Family.
I am not poor nor am I rich 1 thing's for sure I will never be like you you disgraceful Witch, The pains you have caused me I would never wish on another since you decided to run and go in to deep cover, I'm glad I don't have to refer to you as a Biological Mother.

Yes, Birthdays are such fun, for you get something good and something not so good. Let's just say the something not so good is a health issue. My is Sciatica. Ouch. I made 79. The something good is I won a scratchoff prize of thirty dollars and the money has rolled in from there. Smile.
If you have family, they can take you to dinner or throw you a party. If you don't like me, you can throw yourself a party or just celebrate quietly. So far, this year I am havng two knee replacements and teeth implants. But no worries. I expect to take a trip to PR and enjoy myself for Thanksgiving. God willing.
So, if you're getting younger like me or just havig a birthday to celebrate. Enjoy with all the Pomp and Circumstance. Once is all you get, Enjoy It. Can't wait till
my 80th.
I watched the shiny crow pluck woolly tufts of winter’s suit from deer neck at his springtime molt.
All gathered in his clamping beak he winged towards an unseen nest
while deer was grateful for this cheek to pull where antler cannot reach,
and change warm coat to summer best, new clay-red shine against sun's heat.
Deer welcomes tailor's God-gift help for cool in summer heat,
and crow gives thanks to deer, warm night pillow for new fledgling chicks,
soft tufs flown home in crowy beak.
God willing they again will meet.
Next year, same time, same place,
this deer and crow will greet.
Leftovers
Don’t let Christmas come in too much of a hurry
I really can’t handle one more turkey curry
The kids now want something else for their teas
So it’s six pigs in blankets and biscuits for cheese
Faced with leftovers for the rest of the hols
Anyone want anymore sausage rolls
A nice new year snack? The family concur
I get out the turkey... its covered in fur
So now that I’ve chucked out them old turkey loins
We’ll finish the pudding that mum filled with coins
The dentist is open next week, God willing
To sort out the molar I broke on a shilling
There’s thirty one days in every December
So why is it no-one can ever remember
The night that for good luck we don’t want to miss
Can anyone tell me when twelfth night is
So the tree’s folded up and it’s back in the loft
The best China’s packed up in something that’s soft
The Holly’s chucked out which seemed a bit drastic
When you consider that most it’s plastic
Granddad’s still sat in his gold paper hat
I ask why on Earth are you still wearing that
He says he don’t like to remove it too soon
Perhaps I should tell him it’s half way through June
Life is as precious
As a rose, so beautiful!
And the slice of life
Tastes sweeter than
A cherry so sweet.
In the midst of life,
Myriads of lemons squeezed
Make lemonade,
Keeping us all infinitely thirsty.
God willing, we'll keep on
Quenching that thirst
For years and years to come.
In the final hour
of our inevitable demise,
May we all have the courage
To face it without fear.
God willing, we'll peacefully
Fade out as we sleep
With Morpheus cooing
A lullaby for eternal slumber
Into our ears.
May melancholy dirge
Be overshadowed
By uplifting music
At my own funeral. I'd prefer
Mine more celebratory than somber!
Norman Greenbaum's
"Spirit In The Sky"
Closing the ceremony.
Boy, what a send off that'll be!

The sun is bright in the clear morning sky
but brings little warmth as the solstice
is tomorrow and the photoperiod
decreases with each day.
A light frost yesterday and the eggplants
are not looking good but the tomatoes
seem okay and we will have chard,
kale and carrots well into autumn,
although the fall spinach never
set in and I must remember
to get a bushel of Romas
from the Farmer’s
Market to freeze
for the winter.
While in the city, the second wave
of the plague is rising and we
fear for our children but
they are younger and
God willing, we will
all be together for
Thanksgiving.
My precious one, you’re always in my heart.
In troubled times, my spirits you renew.
God willing, we will never be apart.
I can’t envision living without you.
My little ones, I eagerly convey
you lift me up. How sweet to call you mine!
Dear friends and family, to you I say
our bond is close, akin to the divine.
To all, you share my sad and happy times.
You bolster me, inspiring me to dream.
You're roses' fragrance, poems' perfect rhymes,
but our great love will never be supreme.
The utmost bridge to joy resides above,
for we are only human; God is love.

"Chickens will do." And a pause
"For another yard of georgette linens too."
And every capped reasons opened at last,
as a stair, for a stare, to ask about the rear,
"What about the full cotton fabrics or Chinese poplin?"
And impeccable time smiled on me, " Rather, this should be bobbling, that is inevitable."
"Ed good, this is still an issue room for mending.
Are you in?"
"Precisely! Exactly for what?" I heard.
"Is it the hall room? Or the ballroom?" I asked.
"It seemed a courtroom though." I heard my question answered, seemingly, in a bit startled voice.
"Nope. It is not a room, It is a table salt, tied to a prayer, that gifts the container, the neon, and the utility, and God willing, the next day we are expected to find the room." After a while, the assurance delivered.
"Though shawl thee!" I intervened.
"let's go home! Shall we?"
