My wife
To my children she is mother

painter of dreams,
the calmer,
the soother,
the rock…
Holding them through the tears
of mistakes done,
when dreams won’t come,
when milestones are won.
Inspiring them to begin,
to reach the...

Can it Be Fixed
New shingles refresh a roof,
a sagging ceiling drywalled,
a cracked window repaired,
a busted door reinstalled.
When cooler heads do prevail,
arguments can be resolved.
But words of anger and hate,
once spoken can’t be recalled…

It felt as though the railway had taken away his joy.
Sometimes his hard stares or into nothingness.

Yesterday the world engaged askance
And as you held my hand
As surely as the firmament of Earth
The hardening of your gaze
Assured my spirit of your recant to justice

WitchWhich way does the spell go?
Where does her fury go?
Wry face and fuming heart
Wilted meadow we see
Witching hour saddles her
Waiting to cast the spell
Walking on mystic lanes

while standing at the checkout stand.
There were pink curlers in her hair,
a box of twinkies in here hand.

two more crying brats in the cart.
One was...

Politicians say they made America Great again
and put us back on top where we belong
Both sides say that they are right

there’s no one...

When you hear me talk of revolution
and the changes that must take place

to put humanity back into the human race
We’re so quick to point our finger
when we see...

Kindred Soul
Of all the months of any season,
I treasure October days the best.
We both understand our time is short,
and have not a moment’s time to rest.
We must each shine our brightest,
before our final flame burns down.
