Long Kiddos Poems

I first met Ed’s wife when he moved in next door,
it was hard not to see such a beauty,

In the streets he roamed, a tiny black kitten,
With three paws, but four legs, his spirit unwritten.
Found by kiddos concerned, their hearts touched by fate,
They scooped him up gently, his rescue innate.

With eyes full of...

Kiddos In Old Town

I rode my bike through 
Old Town today
it used to be a few blocks 
of bars and low rent restaurants
with Friday and Saturday night
live music pouring through
open doors and windows
back when I...

Enough
Why are we never satisfied with enough?
There is never enough money, but the bills are paid.
You had enough.
And the day the bills aren’t paid, you tried your best.
And that’s enough.
You never have enough time, but...

The Fourth Quarter

Here in the fourth quarter
When time seems to 
Press the pedal to the
Floor and years rush by
Like birds migrating south
In a rush to escape harsh
Winters and cold winds
I often take a moment to
Reflect...

Mine pointed out I’m not so serious about things that don’t matter
But I read between the lines of what she thought she meant

Little kiddos dancing to draw in the sunny days

Johnny, Tiny, Minnie, Stella, Jimmy in glee 
to colour the Dinos in their books
with glitter, rainbow, many crazy looks

Alright kiddos, we are enthused
  We're headed for the zoo
Hip, hip, hey, hey; we're greatly amused

'Cos they'd been there on every free day

Allowed to work from home!

To self manage on your own!

While kiddos at home will be happy,
To see mommies and daddies working!
And elders will be...

SWEET AND SOUR

morello cherries
sweetened-sour beneath warm crust
scoop of cold ice cream
only whipped cream tops my pie
a centrifugal design

royal anne cherries
preserved in glass of whiskey 
sipping manhattan
liquor may be quicker dope
for my health, pitting cherries

To be like a father
One has to inherit the Fatherhood of GOD
A father that siteth on the management board
At game time he made all arrangements and calls
Supplied our uniforms, water and balls
If you had no...

Sorry boys and girls,
Please don't think I'm mean;
Ain't  no treats this season,
Not this Halloween!

The porch lights ain't workin',
To kiddos on the streets;
Tricks are on the menu,
And you won't find no treats!

Our kids are all...

Autumn chills clear windowpane
Hearkens dread of a cold wet rain
Rare hot sun hard to explain.

We observe the first morning frost
The cloud-blossom of cold exhaust
Footprints left on grass we crossed.

Covering up the backyard pool
Layers of clothing...

Old Frosty once danced through the square,
With a scarf that flew wild in the air.
But the sun came in view,
And he melted—boo-hoo!
Now his top hat just sits in despair.

Rudolph, with his nose all aglow,
Led Santa...

Autumn breathes that time of year,
The shouts of "Trick or Treat!!"
Parents dread that painful throb,
On the soles of their aching feet!

Children parade in masquerade,
Dashing from door to door;
Mom and Dad can't break their stride,
While the...
