My friend, Carol Eastman, said I'm an unusual poet
Very true, I never know where this old brain is focused
It's a mystery to me
Same as you, as you see
I'm as entertained as you guys, but only in small doses

Taste of bread and wine
Healing by the Word, a sign
Anticipate the best
Never regret the past
Kindness He has blessed
Silent prayers of Thanks

Thanks for 2015
Two thousand fifteen,
came and left like a quick dream;
many joys, some tears.
Thanks, God...we pray new year theme
be blessed without pain and fears.

(a 7-5 Trochee)
Snow falls down; then comes the rain.
Wet flakes fall and drown
when that rain, like a refrain
once again comes down.
Then I step onto the street.
There's no snow to crush.
Mere shoes don't protect one's feet
from cold puddled slush!

A silver prince
Was riding on a horse of silver
And I saw him distantly with glass.
In telescope, prince seemed to look at me.
I mouthed "I love you",
And his steed, I swear his steed did know.

I give thanks that this difficult year has come to an end
My father is now at peace with his lord
Our lives have been turned upside down
Nothing will ever be the same again
I am on the threshold of a brand new year
And look forward to brighter days ahead

" How do you do?" "My name is Merl."
I'm not a tree rat; I'm a squirrel.
To hunters, I'm screamin,
"Please eat more chicken!"
"Never mind, you shoot like a girl."
I should build my nest in a tree
but your attic looks better to me.
A fight? It's your call.
I'm a little buzz saw.
Remember; nuts are my favorite treat!

wife has given a list of few items to buy
husband after seeing has exhaled a big sigh
items were of one kg honesty two bags of love
five kg of kindness so he given her a hefty shove
with shy she said Oh! my love, to win you let me try

Same old fault on my computer -
Won't turn off properly each day.
Need it to be mended, due ter
Same old fault on my computer
Ever since it fell from scooter.
This makes me angry, I would say...
Same old fault on my computer -
Won't turn off properly each day.

When hearts meet
and eyes lock
when lips touch
and hands circle
thrill shoots
blood gushes
sensation fills
and the heart cherishes
thus we transcend
gliding unawares
to a distant land
of thriving pleasure

Listen to poem:
So you return on silver wheels,
and the wheels are faster
than I remember them.
What memories you bring,
what joy,
what heartache, Brenda.
I had forgotten you 'til now,
but silver wheels still squeal
at the far side of my brain.

A pink angel
with tiny wings
fell off my Christmas tree.
She sighed on Easter Day,
forgotten
on bright pink seat.
I will say hello tomorrow -
put her by the clock,
so nod her head to the steady beat.
I'll tell her it's not Christmas.
If she could kindly wait?
