As old memories fade new ones 
         are made
              Change is good
                yet I wish the past would remain....

The time has come, but now it's past
I knew you first, you knew me last
The first is old, the last is new
I paid it all, no it's past due...

I love you means I love all.
I love you means I love both great and small.

Love begins at home and home means you.
You are ever old, you are ever new....

The Old Fisherman got a new truck.

A cranberry Chevy.

The people who sell his face

gave it to him.

It replaces the old Ford

with wood side panels 

which hold back the barrels, 

his catch....

As above so below
As clouds shine, diamonds grow
Yin and Yang go toe to toe
As old lovers turn to new foe
When heavens of high meet hells of low
You too will know, as above so below

Tonight at 12 A.M.2010 will end.
Tomorrow a new year begins.
Out with the old, in with the new.
I hope that 2011 will be a great year for you.
People have resolutions that they want to make.
these resolutions are things that we shouldn't forsake....

The old year hobbles out - his path an aftermath of blunders.

Glowingly expectant, the new year readies for a grand entrance -

wearing nothing but  fresh unstained diapers of naiveté.

The cowboy and his horse
The horse was actually the boss
Who taught him well
Even kept him from hell
But now he's being toss
Old cowboy has a new friend
Oh how that female horse pretend
To cover his back
But he still was attack
Oh boy died with regret in the end...

To my surprise,
Or pleasant demise,
Dare I say my mind?
After all, love is blind,
Yet I see you perfectly.

To my surprise,
Or pleasant demise,
May I speak my mind, 
Or will I be confined?
Reaching out to you,
Rather hard to do,
Opportunities never show,
Where will we go?...

Don't you see laughing with eyes like the light from a gazing flashlight? The prodigious dovetail grey muk reverberates and quivers as it lives and breaths. My oh my see to it opens up showing a birthed being neither man nor woman they come from the other side. This is the old and now the new....

Flies, flies, oh, those flies,
So many flies around me.
Small flies, large flies, flies,
Variations all,
Old type flies and new look flies
Flies, flies everywhere.

I’ve tried spraying them;
Seems they’ve been vaccinated
Against this fly spray.

Obsession with what's
Politically Correct
Is a moron's job

I but jest a bit
I do not mean to offend
All so serious

Nothing personal
Old jokes are now new insults
I laugh at myself

They do take offence
To a bit of funnery
I won't be PC

To offend a few
Before there may be no one
Left here to offend......

The clouds are tangled in the sky
Branches are intertwined in the woods
Tangled thoughts are there to sort through
High and low, looking back and ahead
Scattered leaves fallen on the ground
Some are old and some are new
More to come along soon, this fall
Twirling in the air, with colors to renew

Old comes to the new
New comes to the old,
From now to then,
and then to now.

One must behold
of things to come.
Yet there are those
things that we behold -
    memories
                      -
                        -
                          -
                             - 
                               memories...

Exchange your old mop for a new broom. 


D word, the dreaded one by far 
Intrinsic feel of loss and gloom 
Vows volunteered at the altar 
Oaths offered betwixt bride and groom… 
Reminiscing on past romance 
Cutting cards for another chance 
Eager kids will brighten your room

Today we are indebted to be quixotic
And think of yet another valentine.
We know the rules and we are both obscure:
Today’s the day we have to be romantic.
Our love is old and sure, not new and frenetic.
You know I’m yours and I know you are mine.
And saying that has made me feel romantic,
My dearest love, my darling valentine, -Tim Duncan...

My mood is hopeful every time 
old calendars defer to new. 
Post-Christmas doldrums start to fade. 
It's time to bid the old adieu. 

God’s blessed us with another year.
New opportunities are here!

Brittany Bailey 
To create something new, 
You must abolish that of the old, 
In order for things to grow,
There are seeds for you to sow.
You cannot go from nothing-
To something
In the blink of an eye.
You won’t get from here  -
To there if you won’t try.
So let it all out -
Plant something new.
You never know what you can find to be true....

What seperates the old you from the new?
Is it reaching a new level in life?
Thinking what you want may not be so right?
Is it going from poor to rich?
Or when the roles are switched?
How do you know when you've changed habits?
Because some don't even know they have it.
To some, the seperation is bad for the heart,
To me, it's the beginning of a new start.
