The Family Vacations

My wife is a hardheaded lady
So when she makes up her mind
Whatever it is that she wanted
Is just a matter of time

She wanted a family vacation
Everyone must make the scene
Including our kids and their families
We are a group of sixteen

The first one took us to Oregon
To a motel on the beach 
Although everyone had lots of fun
It was just too far to reach

The next one was also held out of town
A nice place on Lake Chelan
With boats and skis and a swimming pool
Everyone thought it was grand

Went to Lake Chelan for two more years
Then we found a brand new spot
It was a big lodge in Idaho
We all loved that place a lot

We had that big lodge all to our self
It was on Lake Pend Oreille
It rained the whole week were there
We played games inside all day

Even though we had that bad weather
The vacation was the best
The place so big, kids played hide-and-seek
Good visit, fun games and rest

We returned there again the next year
It has its dock and bay
Water sports, fishing and paddle boats
Then someone sold it away

The next year’s vacation was different
We rented two large house boats
A week boating on Lake Roosevelt
I got sick and almost croaked

Then we went to Marrowstone Island
To my daughter’s new beach place
They caught crabs and clams, then bought oysters
Crammed sea food into our face

Then the guy boated to Port Townsend
But when they were coming back
Yellow boat died in the ferry’s lane
They barely avoided a smack

The next year it was back to Lake Chelan
But at a different place
One of the kids brought a small scooter
Road it all around the place

Two years ago, back to the beach house
Played games and had lots of sun
The tenth family vacation for us
 For two year’s now there’s been none

My wife and think it is so sad
To lose such a tradition
Let’s start now and plan one for next year
That is this poem’s mission


NOTE: There always seems to be confusion on pronouncing Chelan, but the locals say it "shuh-LAN" (short "A").
Also, Pend Oreille is pronounced "PAWN-do-RAY"

Rosa Glutinosa - True Colors

Roses are still red  -  and
True - pink and velvet silk of ivory
Rosa Glutinosa - the species of Mediterranean
Stunted by the growth, Native be Europe, Turkey and Iran
A shrub - at most three tiny feet high
Beauty it be of whites - 5 petals and true of thee
Gold- centered a bud - Her devoted majesty
For European culture - thee limbs hairy and of thorn
Fresh - be it- be - the leaves aroma of pine
Roses are - what to determine true love, and mine
Look thee - Rosa Glutinosa - the love doth flow
Like a daisy - with petals true and fact every time
He or she loves me , loves me not, loves me , loves me not
Matter of fact - gimme five , He or she ends always
With that - that is true - LOVES ME
Controlled by the daisy - by the European  Rose!
And true to a point - picking the petals then see
Glutinosa - your true colors special to know of how rare
To know to start out with HE/SHE loves me not - HE/SHE loves me
Loves me not - loves me ends like this with
A fur of thick - thorn - and 3 foot slap
Right in the face - loves me not too for also and end
True how 5 petals waiting
Too the daisy , shall it known the rose is close
And each petal bore by the bud
Feelings are then beauteous - they flood
Determining love - I say it with prose
Loves me - pick the petal that beautiful rose!

In true love shall we pend in life  .  The point I get to say in my song Lyrics as a songwriter too!  MY SONG  Sir , Don't You Understand ?  sung by singer Sharon Zee

Funny How the Brain Plays Tricks

There will never be a time for us,
I know you’ll never visit.

These words were coarse
With no remorse and
Casually omniscient.

Why say this? You never know,
May visit you one day.

I just know- You never will,
You’ll never come my way.

I have to go, we’ll speak soon
I had to go somehow.

Will let you go, Thanks a lot,
Goodbye my friend, Bye now.

You never called again no more,
The phone it never rang,
Thought of you; words you said-
And how they somehow stang.

Was by myself when heard the news;
Police told me with compassion,
Though strangely knew what happened to you;
Before this interaction.

There will never be a time for us-
Those words played upon my mind,
For weeks on end my life did pend
Whilst little joy had shined.

Looking back and what you said
The things that you just knew,
There will never be a time for us-
How this sadly turned out true.

That sunny day gardening
Waiting for a message to come through,
I knew someone would visit me
Outside I was, I knew.

When you called and after this
A little joy… let go,
Omniscience is intense…
The things that we just know.

Since then I thought I’ve seen you
In strangers I have passed,
Funny how the memory is and
How it’s hard to grasp.

Since then I thought I felt you;
Watching me and close 
Though my mistake for thoughts belate
Inside the hearts of most.

S mile costs nothing, so give it free and gratuitous
P leasant demeanour is a sure sign of happiness
R elate to all in an amiable way, it strengthens camaraderie
E mpathy is core to happiness, the ability to feel for others
A wesome feeling of love is like a spurt, it ejects out,
D rowning all bitterness and feelings of revulsion.
I nfuse in oneself and others an insatiable zest for living. 
N either wealth nor possessions can make us truly happy.
G oodness of heart and a clean conscience warrant peace n’ joy!

H appiness comes only to persons who seek it the least,
A nd, not to those who struggle to have it by means, fair or foul.
P hilosophers agree that true happiness stems from within.
P erpetual happiness lies in being satisfied with what we have.
I gnite interest in the world outside and enjoy the beauty around.
N egativity destroys happiness and should be kept at arm’s length
E xpress gratitude to all who have helped us in some way.
S pend quality time with family and friends, spreading good cheer.
S ubmit finally to God and hopefully wait for His benediction!

The Effort Continuing

I find this very curious: "When a person speaks of unity with our Creator, and with all of life, including with and for themselves continuing and of just (H) (O) (W) to achieve this effort - the very opposite opposition of some good and worthy people shows up. 

Instead of applying ourselves just as (H)onestly, and just as (O)pen-mindedly, and just as (W)illfully as we possibly can; working together to achieve this ever-peaceful endeavor; if, where, and when we still can. 

No matter of the varying and inevitable pain of this effort, and of learning this lesson in faith, reliance, and trust in our Creator, and in one another, continuing."

Yes, fear is a crooked and ever-terrible thing!

I should know and stay aware just as well! 

Yes, I will always remain to be this opposing way, without my (H)onest and (O)pend-minded and willingly (W)illful submission towards the very action taken upon just where, and if, and when I may be truly helpful, too and for and with our Creator, aimed towards all of life, including too, with, and for myself. 

Continuing on into and beyond this very moment on into and beyond all of eternity, on into and throughout all of, infinity!"

A Beautiful Life

A beautiful night
In the blue skies I die
Why I try to better your cries
A beautiful night
In the truth I strive
For what I realize 
In this beautiful night

A halo of dreams
It all comes to end 
And when my balance offends
My decisions to blend
There is no escape to pend
Whether or whether not I bend
To mend with days of disbelief
The failures I achieve to circulate and lead
The hemp around my neck may bleed
And when I have found my peace, I leave
Keep my determination at my sleeves
The facts at the end of my beard I scratch
My spirit and soul seem to be at a mitch-match
At twenty-two it’s a catch
The cache is you’re twenty-two
Which means it resides within you 
The memories of the holidays I wished to pursue
Broken news is nothing new
Ever shall I do 
Emotions are a motive
Purposely affiliated with going unnoticed 
When on all your desires you seem to only focus
And against the wind 
You assume you can maneuver some hocus pocus
To become a Brutus locust 
You assume you can shoulder us 
Out of proportion you can only folder trust
Hold out for a colder thrust
I told her I must 
Her own passion out sold her for lust

We Will Not Keep Quiet

We will never keep quiet,
Even in the middle of the jungle,
Left alone with the unknown,
We will make the unknown known
Swim in the pool of realism,
And sing the song of spasm
For we will not keep quiet.

Why will you think your dealings,
Are right and mine wrong? Why?
How you kill and give reasons,
Breaks the delicate bone of posterity,
When will my colleague cling to,
To pend the wand of the yard,
Then, let’s wake up from this,
Lazy and perfunctory sleep,
And slumber around to settle,
The settlement of the time,
For We will not keep quiet.

We shall tell the world the truth,
How you gang and mob to pull,
My whole stern body naked,
How you tame to barren my effort,
How you swerve and swear to spy 
And stop me from the table’s fame
But I will not keep quiet.

We must not keep quiet, 
But tell the world your dealings 
Without hidden vile wry in awry
In whole and naked of the soul,
To end the strike pending,
And to rescue the generation 
Yet, unborn, to avert the wrath,
Of time and queue behind time 
And say things as they are,
Why we will not keep quiet.

....
Sir a moment of your time
Grand as hot as ell
A cavalcade
I thap pend 1 knight
Mute a knee was bountiful
The great z came
before the life of emile
you can't take it with you
its gone with the wind
Becca the new wife
How green wasp
My valley
Where i missed the mini divers
Cause a blank ehhh
Went my way
The lost week
End
The beast leers you olives
Gentle man just nods
Ham let all the kingsmen
all about
Evening found Gene in Paris
The great test
Shown earth
Foam hear
eternity eternity
On the water
Front smartly
Ate days around
The bridge
on the river?
G
G
Bend hurt
This part meant
We see this side of the story
Laws and rent are rabid
Tomb or just his watery locker
My lair shady
Muses of the sound
summer to summer a man
Neat in the height
oil veers the midnight
call boy Pat
On connecting with the french
God
father
Stinging the second coming
_________one___________
_________nest___________
cuckoo some call me
Rock and hall
Dear to hunt her
Creamer versus creamer
you ordinary people

For Her

All I want is, for you, to sing,
All I wish is that you can, to me, cling,
I ain't rich, but can try and buy you a bling,
And your calls I won't ignore, I will pick them immediately they ring,
And I hope in the end, this we will bring.

I never want this to come to an end,
Because you i don't want to ever leave to pend,
Because I know how thy heart you can mend,
And it to the best you can also tend,
Rather i will never feel in secured when mine to you I lend.

I can't deny you are smart,
And truly you are an art,
Freely you are to rule thy heart,
And together we can build a hut,
To keep us safe, never to be hurt.

How I wish one day my hand you will take,
Both of us, that to make,
Have evening chats watching the lake,
As it takes off down the horizons with a sweet cake,
That safely we had to bake.

I won't stop hoping for the best,
And how I hope this ain't a test,
Because I believe this is you taste,
Not even the next,
And soon a ring I will put on you finger without haste.
