Sweet little bluebird 
I love you so much
I pine for the day
When I'll feel your touch
Soothing, alluring 
My senses alive
Calming, assuring 
I'm 105...

a reflection
  upon the
      water
a memory
    surfaces
    stirs
    stimulates
then
silence
     contentments
caress
my
whole being

inspired by clip of Morse theme...

105
105
I just hit 105
Am I alive?
Am I alive?
Driving in rage at 105
Run away
Run away
Leave behind this day
105
105
I can’t escape going 105
A lonely heart
still falls apart
No matter how fast you go...

        105 degrees, California

        the cat turns to stone
        outdoors, I choose not to roam
        outstretched, coconut juice to refresh

Said the Guru - Saying:105
Breathe a little more than your usual breath,
instantly it opens your way into what the eyes can’t see
and make you feel closer to something you need in your life.

How could I not forgive you?
Just one look at your puppy dog eyes
Thaws the heart of this ice maiden

Quatrain #105:
FEST


Feel how pain feels in times of fear,
Express goodwill when tough times veer;
See time reveal a distraught world,
Touch funds fond thrill when peace endears.

On a Washington midnight thirteen bug-eating bats
descend upon the Air Force Memorial spotlights
drawn to swarms of their favorite insect dinners.
What a spectacular sight! Wings of evil crowding ‘round the spires!
But they cannot compare with the other species of bloodsuckers!...

You'll live inside my memory book
Sometimes I'll go back and look
Your image there won't fade away
A thousand years sharp as today

At one-o-five (105) if I'm still here
I'll open up that book so dear
And write through hands that then will shake
One last poem for old time's sake...

Your Tiara

 105 rhinestones glued into cheap elegance
 Trying to be more
 Silver plating, like your mind, chips
 Magical and awkward
 Worn to pressed dinner parties
 Invitations and assigned seating
 Little metal clips securing you your class
 So dangerous - Only a pin to hold you

Acqua di Gio cologne fills the air
It's time for your lesson, I'll be right there
Tune up for me so we can save time
Today we'll start working on musical rhyme

Now you sit right here and hold the guitar
I'll be behind you, I'll fret the barre
You play the melody high on the strings
And together as one we'll make lovely things...

O son of the morning,
You have come in the dark hour,
The darkness have drenched my strengths,
And, I am as handicap as the lames on lonely paths.
O cold Angel,
You have come with vigor,
I pray you this once,
If you do not know my father's love,
Do not touch my soul.
O light of the darkness,
My days are young,
Call 105 years to come....

I ask for refuge to Allah from Satan the exiled evildoer.
In the name of Allah the Kind and the Giver.

Haven’t you thought it over
How your Lord dealt with the elephant riders?
Didn’t He destroy their conspiracy?
He kept on sending down upon them
Flocks of Ababil birds
That dropped pebbles of baked clay ceaselessly
Until He rendered the soldiers like chewed up grass....

Snap! Life is gone that fast.
Crackle. Lightning hits him.
Pop! Electricity goes off.
Zap! You are not trained. Do not fool with that electric wire!
Sizzle! Bzzzzz. Pow! 
Life rebounds out of your body into heaven.
Yes, life goes that fast.

Snap
Crackle
Pop
Zap
Pow!
Life is over.

The only one 
Who never realized
This was my 
Crotchety
Weird
Mean

“The Nomad”

The nomad in wants to go get up and 
Get right and go make some money around 
A beach. The breach breathes the salty air. Cant you taste it in there?


Not if she has a fever of 105 degrees again and we have to come back.
	
	The nomad blends in well almost like he loses himself when in others
		Im just so sure        being the shadow man to save ones that are in side...

In Georgia we get a little taste of Hell with the summer heat,
Surely without our AC we would be dead meat.
It feels like a roaring campfire when you go outside,
You are covered in sweat, and want to run back inside.

It makes you wonder how hot Hell would be,
Although it feels like Hell now at 105 degrees!
We had better live as good as we can be...
The devil won’t be serving any southern iced tea!...
