Spring

Been a long time friend, the last time we spoke was spring things went wrong with us, Feel like a knife in my chest did not see the end this way. Francine Roberts Wow me in 5 lines contest tanka 5-7-5-7-7

Before It's Too Late

Treat your child with loving care
 let him know that Mommy is there,
   The years go by much too fast
  and when you look into the past,
   You'll wish you would have taken time;
  to read his book of nursery rhymes.

  You always had things to do;
  no time to play or go to the zoo,
  Make time for him, dishes can wait;
  leave until later the dusting you hate.
  Read and play with him for goodness sake,
  before he's grown, and it's too late.

Hopscotch -E

I stare at the playground
Its been a long time since Ive been here
The hopscotch marks are fading..
..Once upon a time they were clear
but those memories are shading.
Alone in the cold,
 thinking:
please bring back the old days.
For what is good today
was shunned upon yesterday 
and night has turned into morning.
time is reforming
I dont like it, so i stare at the white lines on the gray concrete
I throw a rock and start hopping with moving numbers under my feet.
