Grandma, the tortoise,
lived hundred forty one years
she witnessed many
animals generations
died at the San Diego Zoo
Velvety skin
And small rays of his red hair
Pour a river’s warm breath
Onto dampened generations
Bravely giving strength
Generations of abuse,
Trickle down,
Through our family tree.
Changing,
With every generation,
But the cycle ENDS with me.
for war it tears and never mends
forbearance key to make amends
or future generations rend
for war will tear and never mend
Coded in your genes
Generations of stardust,
Their flaws and virtues
Vying to influence you,
Pick and choose which ones you'll keep
universal stardust
challenging mankind and
generations' survival instincts
life in the balance

Generations of waiting
needing and wanting a vote
Dictator ousted; long
long polling queues, many thousands
wait nine hours, it matters not.
Watergate Salad
Fluffy marshmallows in whipped cream and pistachios,
A Grandmother’s classic from generations.
By: Paige Posadziejewski
true love... a springboard
for future generations
a cloud of laughter
warm rain from lovers eyes
babies birth... jubilations
WAR
Red
White
And blue
Bleeds purple
Generations lost
In shadowed television lips
Smiling behind masks of golden mountains screaming graves
Plastered posters up on dividers
laminated and preserved for generations
of students, marching by filing
nameless the years, uncounted
the numbers
The curse of public opinion,
feigned history of the truth
Generations of self interest,
freedom—time abused
(Villanova Pennsylvania: January, 2020)
The echo of each of our thought, word, and deed
Is what would shape future generations' creed!

Heavy clumps of white fall
from the grey sky
landing on wooden limbs,
weighing them down
like dark skeletons
bent under the burden
of generations of sorrow
grandparent's farmland
passed down through generations
apple peach trees grow
overgrown pathways
barb wire fence contains thorned bush
wild berries florish
Golden moments, true love,
Turning you on, turtledove,
Secrets unfold,
Desire never old,
Grey now, not cold,
Blessing generations,
Sing grey liberations.......
W ayfaring soldiers on both sides believing the other to be depraved
A trocities crucifying unborn generations
R uinous idealisms exchange catastrophic pleasantries
We’re planting an orchard of trees,
with shade we may never sit beneath,
yet the fruit of our hands will bless future lands,
with a harvest that grows underneath.
I
one seed, so wise
to hide generations of pumpkins
forest of leaves
II
wisdom in tendrils, leaves
spread out - small garden -
blind tendrils grasp non-leaves
For four generations at least,
they’d carried ‘round that ball of yeast.
Tucked there ‘twixt the thighs,
it made their bread rise;
their pans never had to be greased!
Pen me when I’m down
Open my heart when I’m heart-broken
Eulogize my creativity when I spit words of wisdom
Mention me to generations yet to be born because I’m a legacy
a soft gentle touch
feels the warm pulse of guidance
of a calloused hand

toddler on a swing
giggles flowing out like hiccups
grandmother's heart soars to the rooftops
two generations loving each other
experiencing the joy of life
on a windy autumn day
Feather pen fluttering, ink spilling grandmotherly perspective.
Circumspect of future generations; the Jetsons in flight.
Drones may carry the message, but hands-off to AI robots.
Generations defined by music
And the uniqueness of their dress
The 50’s lassoed my heart
So thrilled with rock and roll
I also love jazz
Invented by
Risk-taking
And Brave
Youth
