Volcano Run part 3 - Escaping the Ashfall

Part three

Once we were home, the bikes secure
we sealed the clubhouse, best we could
waiting for the ash to stop 
but fearing that it never would,

All the TV news was dismal;
all predicting different things,
each with warnings dire and dreadful
of the dangers ashfall brings.

I dug out pairs of coveralls
and painter's masks for us to wear,
and cartons of

Volcano Run part 2 - The Ride Home

At crack of dawn we headed out
before a cock or rooster crowed
and soon we found our asphalt path;
at home again, upon the road.

That 'greasy spoon' was our last stop,
Where we each tended to our ride;
we filled the tires and topped the gas
before we found our way inside.

Once we were seated I looked up
to see the

Volcano Run part 1 - The Ride to the Mountain

We ventured out one summer morn
to meet up with the rising sun,
the trip began at Castle Rock;
we joined the others for the run.

Inside a truck stop restaurant
the club debated where to go,
some wanted south to warmer lands,
the others north to find some snow.

We decided north and south were out;
most choices were too far to roam.
We

Premium Memberdog run gave me freedom

freedom for me came in the form of a dog run
promised weeks before it arrived
I gave up hope the Thursday it finally came
I had been hostage to my house for eleven months
because Beau, my baby dog chases cars

He follows pretty teenage girls home
He runs around delivery trucks as they enter our long driveway
Our good dog,

run

long nights
eyes wide
sky lights
heart racing
i am within my rights
to reach for your hand
without regrets or fearful plights
lips thrum nervously
i know your soul; flying high as a kite
never tameable
unless i tether you here holding with all my might
for i know it is you who easily falls away
and i would not let you go for truth bites
and

Premium MemberROOM FOR RENT

Too small,
for two of us.
Wanting to run away,
I was reluctant to stay here.
Our pay checks did not reach far in those days,
I had a place to rest my head.
Needed more rent money,
please rain dollars.
Too small.

You can't run from accountability

We know your game 
And we are not going to become slaves to it
We've seen you spin your lies like a spiders Web 
Your crimes of deceit will come back to smite you
The heavens will rain down on you
There is no escape from eternity

Hear these words said
Let them infest your head
Your silence will betray you

Premium Memberrun rabbit run

run run run run run the rabbit thinks
frightened nerves sitting on their brinks
knowing his safe bet is a place to hide
he slips under a bush, lying on his side

where did he go? wonders the owl where did he go?
he swoops close to the bush, and flies really slow
the rabbit is quiet, stops breathing almost
not wanting

Premium Member Look I Am Popping Away

I love when we sit in the hot bright sun,
add some butter or we will get well done.
Sky and water of ice blue,
better than the dull store view.
Oh! look I am popping so I will run.

Together We'll Run

Let’s give it one more go—
Don’t let a good thing die so fast.
Don’t let one moment bring us down;
Together, we can beat the past.

Let’s try again—maybe we’ll make it.
But if we don’t,
I promise you this:
I won’t try to fake it.

If you leave me now,
I won’t last another hour.
I can’t go on living
If your sweet love

Who's Your Daddy

When under the gun how can one
not be outdone by nepotism
or overcome by favouritism
altho' the norm they're no more
than a form of terrorism
a nebulous opponent none can fight
on the human landscape
naught but a blight
from which we can't escape or run
any self-respecting someone would shun
and as for me you see
I was obviously yet definitely
born in the

Premium MemberWhat Makes Me Smile

Smiles from me to you, 
making you happy not blue.
Friendship we can praise, 
as we enjoy sunny days.

My puppy is tan and small, 
she likes to sleep in mommy's shawl. 
She loves to play with her ball, 
while I play with my doll. 
We like to play outside, 
where she will run and hide. 
I

Questionable

ever really knowing
if I'm coming or going
meanwhile
what am I to do with you
as somewhat akin
under the skin
yet now quite skint
but taking a sprint
and just for fun
making a dummy run
if I may say
it's leave or stay
quite the conundrum
of all things the sum
but when it's said and done
of the be and end-all none
for should you ever think
