Over the Edge
Jack and Sam
were two inseparable souls

They were two good looking kids,
who liked to play rough and tumble
Didn't mind scraping their knees...

This Mom Needs a Hug
I hugged my sons today between the chaos and play.
They normally rush through the everyday hugs

but I cried today, heard about too...

Bosom Buddies
Resting there, beneath the sod,
Lie two young, bosom friends.
They shared the joys and toils of life,
From childhood, down in Texas,
To this grassy knoll where their story ends.

Gummy Bear in the Sawatch Range
There were infinite shades of green
a few angelic scented cascades
a pair of brown birds sang to me
I tossed a bit of chocolate on the pine needle carpet.
They beaked the pieces and quickly flew off,...

Days of Forever
Days of Forever
With every day,
we plant a bit
gather a bit,
use a bit.
Time’s waning irrigation
renders dry many tributaries.
From high in the ethos-sphere
some of purity’s regeneration
meanders down rivulets of calm
while certain regrets clamor endless echoes
from mind’s...

A Friend In Need
A friend in a pinch is seldom a cinch
to be found in a world uncaring.
Some might offer aid, then want to be paid,
with an attitude overbearing.
Friends made from the heart will never depart
though the way...

Cyncical
I’ll tell you now “forever” is an awesome concept,
Yet promises made unto it are very seldom kept.
Believe me that “for always” doesn’t truly exist,
In the heat of a moment bondage is hard to resist.

Killing Ants
Ants are known to be industrious,
Bustling about the anthill
In lines and arcs and freeform patterns,
Intent on some important insect mission,
Minding their own business, thank you.
Of course, sometimes ants have to be exterminated
If they’re likely to...

Rise Up
Our feet bleed,
Stepping
Upon shards of glass
As we trod
This rough-and-tumble path
that is life.
It's a vast, rugged terrain
Full of roadblocks,
Yet we walk it,
Day after day
Not knowing when
It will trip us up
And it inevitably will,...

Her Identity
She was never a girly girl
did not care about wearing her
mother’s high heel shoes,
or painting her nails.
Wasn’t interested in putting on lipstick,
or smearing makeup on her face.
Had no attraction to the color pink
like most girls...

The Fracturing Empire
The top has always been nothing but rough and tumble.
But things really started to get bad when the bottom began to crumble.

Freedom In a Frame
Once I saw a lovely frame
Rough and Tumble was its name
It was a captured moment of freedom
A moment of nature at its peak.

It's frenzy, won the dancing game

Election Time, Fun Time
It’s fun time
Election time
Don’t say
I don’t care a dime
If this is so
You’ll miss

Dance of Democracy
But you see
It’s no graceful dance
But Shiva's ‘Tandav'
Pulls, pushes and shoves
This is politics'
