European Reprise
Ze French, they are haughty
Kremlinites, vulgar, crude

Jacob Marley
Scrooge encountered the ghost of Jake Marley,
While slurping his bowl of blah barley.
From thence, as we know the plot thickens,
As from past sins Scrooge fled like the 'dickens'!

Captivating Chapters

Each minuscule grain of sand
running rampant through
hourglass' prismatic time
at hand, awaiting life's resolve
to seize a brand new adventure,

enthusiastically captivating chapters
of a poetically inspired existence
amidst everyday's triumphantly

Always tender

And avoid like the dickens
…Goodbyes…
