Short Roughs Poems

millions of waves, of days, of breaths, of glances
millions of lights, of heys, of thoughts, of chances
millions of melodies, of beats, of romances
millions of short months, of too roughs

Clyde Rolf
Played golf

First nine
Went fine

Next nine
Not fine

He muffs
In roughs

Sand trap

Some klutz

Hurled putter
In gutter

O'er par
By far

Disgust
He cussed

Clubhouse

Sorrow wears a face

Bitter feels the touch
As sad spoil roughs much

That suffers lost sleep


Gall can forfeit taste
As pain lays stern waste


Sorrow lumps old dirt
Drags even past hurts

Infinite is you soul,
Search through the dark,
Find your reason for life.

Every day brings you pain,
You are done nursing ambition’s wounds.

Falls on hard rock,
Your life is full of damaged dreams.
There is no more smile on your face,
The laughter of life is gone,
No one to turn to but you.

Search for deeper meaning,
Your effort will write
Your own life story.
