Short Jump The Gun Poems

The snow is melting in the sun
While strollers stroll and runners run.
The thaw, it feels like, has begun
But we can’t get too cozy.

For way before the melting’s done
And kids have had their snowball fun,
The weather wheel just might be spun
And things won’t look so rosy.

In wintertime, we jump the gun
And think that somehow we have won
When it warms up, but it can stun;
Tomorrow might be frozy!...

Inferno Confused 

Thoughts of what to do 
Some pulling me through 
Wanna jump the gun 
But dont want to run

Its at the end of this line

Confused inferno glides 
This part of the mind 
Always doubting wonder 
All directions in ponder 
Climb aboard this crazy ride 
Now with only one stride 
Or turn and walk a stray

So many different ways 
But which one is the best 

On this multiple choice test...

I'm staying up too late
and still losing weight
and the lights are blazing
as my mind works this equation
no matter how I figure

in this lover's handbook

and end the long run
that first urgent kiss
that winter day of bliss
memories that still flare
when my mind visits there
it just doesn't add up
no, no sum sums it up...
