He has persevered and toiled,
Basic needs unmet.

like a cast
And all I have to show

What ought to have lapsed 
A decade ago sluggishly pops;
Antagonist’s claws now thaw 
And give way to buoyant hopes.

A Look In The Mirror
Short stubble streaked with gray
A scarred face and eyes that know
Its a decade short of the crisis
But forty is already in tow...

Feeble
I
am
lying
on my bed
Struggling with cold
It’s been a couple of days now
As if a decade have passed, but I am so adverse

Premium Member As Empty As the Future
As empty as the future
So is a soaked page
Whose ink has run off.
I hope to be the author;
A new and boundless decade
Awaits my pen's touch....

The Faded Family
We all seem delayed.
We all dissuade.
We all seem afraid.
We all seem strayed.
And then in a decade,
We all evade.
And then in another decade,
We all fade....

Love You Munchkin
I'll love you today
And tomorrow too
Try turning back
And I'll follow you

I’ll love you next year
And perhaps next decade
For you munchkin,
The universe I’ll trade

Premium Member A Day Winds Down
A day winds down
  So, too, a week
  a month, a year
  a decade, a century
A career winds down too
  Even a love affair
     and a life...
Where do these things wind up?...

1950
a new decade
we had it made
the warring 40's past
at long long last
the sky was bluer 
the world was newer
as a lad of 7
life was heaven
it couldn’t last
the 50's passed...

Twenty Twenty Vision
So, we have a New Year
A new decade, new fear
But twenty twenty vision
Has never been less clear
Less known, less full of cheer.
Twenty twenty vision
Is not what it was, I fear....

Premium Member That Contented Look
she had that contented look
you only see every decade or so

the look of a woman who has gnawed the leg
off of a shrieking tiger

we backed off quickly
and without comment

fearing her next move...
