Happiness is a world at peace
without crime or disease
where everyone is a vegetarian
and lives to be a centenarian....

A baby is born
   Dawns a new morn
A centenarian passes away
   Sad close to a day 

A new life arrives
   An older departs --
Transmitted, the flame 
   ~ of a human heart...

I was a winner, so close to the top.
My computer broke! I had to stop.
It's fixed! You'll think me a contrary one.
Its hard since I'm a centenarian.

The mighty centenarian marches
slowly uphill across the level ground
through viscous air, stiffened by time’s starches,
fighting a viral foe this time around
allied with the Hippocratic Oath bound.
A metallic steed shod with rubber wheels
bears his regal frame. His campaign reveals
greater power than any sword or spear.
He raised a sum for the army that heals
and warmed our hearts in a chilling cold year....

JIMMY CARTER
              (A Haiku Trio Tribute)

             Not before his time,
             On-time to sow seeds of hope;
             Plowing with love:-

             Raking away hate,
             He prepared grounds for world peace;
             Sowing seeds of hope:-

             Centenarian,
             Canvassing healing worldwide;
             Plowing gracefully:-

Nascent Eyes

Lost memories of the 80's annoy me
recollections for memoirs are long gone

My tangible sensitivity has decreased
but the emotional kind goes on and on

My senses are faint, weakened by
too many dinners, champagne and new loves

There is no such thing as a superficial centenarian
It's all about the pulse
good rhythm, good blood flow 

It's different now, profound and simple
one small rounded fresh face looking up
with nascent, hazel eyes...

Wonderful sunshine
Happiness to an angel
Singing through this cutie
A piece sung by Celine Dion
My Heart Will Go On.

Hot noon day a blazing fury
A poor PWD weightlifter
Trying her best practice religiously
Unmindful the poor physical condition of the gym
She's still manage to cup a prize for her name.

Misty cold evening at ground hotel
A lonesome romantic dancer
Dancing on the floor in rhythmic motion
Accompaniment of a grand piano
Played by a centenarian grandpa....
