Mixed Emotions

Relaxation, serenity of being alone
Happiness, like a dog with a bone
Shoes off, soft grass on your feet
Dreams of the one you long to meet

Lay in the grass, look at the sky
Life is short, you begin to cry
Friends pass away, they leave too soon
You are now alone to stare at the moon

Grassy meadows, rolling clouds
Whispering

Agonizing indecision

Just how much courage does it take?

As we visited our youngest grandson in his first year of college…a college close to the ocean…I must admit…the two of us…were filled with mixed emotions.

Our minds were happy seeing he’s grown into a fine young man…more confident and stronger…while our hearts were a little more melancholy…wishing he had remained a child just a little

Leaving family home, grief, a loved one lost 
Reasons differ as life deals its cards, 
Accept and hold close to your heart 
Never show a single card, decisions await. 

Leave your home for greener pastures 
Some gates are locked warning trespassers, 
Mothers and Fathers pass on so quickly 
On your own, life can be prickly.

MIXED EMOTIONS

Mother deserved every bit of my love
She was my first love
She was the love of my teenage years.

I lived without the love I loved
High atop the stairs I sat, waiting
Torn between poverty and pseudo power.

Did you not know love grows?
A single flower blooms on pavement
A helpless pup found in abandonment
A cornered bird cared for
Deeply

Jerry's task, to 'Write a merry jingle'
Something to make toes and fingers jingle
   He wrote of how his fat wife
   Had been happy all her life
Won the contest, but now he is single

Mixed Emotions

People can say that they “Love You” thousands of times. 
You say it back and forth, like it supposed to keep you together.
You fight here and there. You keep on trying to fix things between you.
What you see as nagging others see as compassion. I tried to show you how you should be treated. 
But

Football Mania 2018

World Cup - 2018
Football season
Football fever
Glued to the television

Moments of anxiety
Nail biting
Edge chair sitting
Cussing the players, the referee
Despair, heart wrenching, disappointment

Then

Screaming, shouting... G O A LLLL!!!
Pandemonium, jumping, dancing, 
Pans knocking, horns blowing
Hilarious with joy

My team won

Ouch!

Silence
Sad face, tears, disbelief, anger, mixed emotions

My team lost

Football season
Football fever

Mixed Emotions

I hear by now say that thine self is fed up honey.
       Done,
       Distraught--
       Finished.
5     And with everything going on, my community is fed up with me.

Where  is here?
I feel their emotions burdening the ATMOSPHERE.
I am spinning in it.
Thicker than mud.
Was it BRICK COSTUD?
What were the emotions of the people surrounding me?
Some were in heated denial.  
Who else would suppress a smile?
BAM!!  DAMN!! 
Noxious  city air as day fades away to night.
People making casual friends and laughing

Mixed Emotions

Today is my Birthday
I should be okay

But, 3 years ago you went away
Being my Dad I wanted you to stay,

It is Happy and Sad on this day
Now you are gone what can I say,

I smile and tell myself I'm okay
But, deep inside I am in dismay,

I feel torn on how I may
Should be feeling and

Mixed Emotions

Without you I can't get to where I need to go,

Everything is fast for others

But to me it's slow,

Money needs to be made,

Bills need to be paid,

Focus on your daughter's education for her to get better grades,

Get along with the mother for your daughter's sake,

But how can you feel that if you and her can't

Mixed Emotions

do i leave?
do i stay?
will i hurt her?
if i go my way?


she loves me
but do i?
if i say yes
it's maybe a lie

i think all stay
wait, no i cant
but if i leave
thats what her ex might want.


i sense jealousy
is that love?
or selfishness
i must have.


what to do?
what to do?
all go see a witch
she'll give me some love
