End of An Era

A time-honored system of old
Pegged cold cash to ounces of gold
But that’s not now true
Strong dollars are through    
The treasure at Fort Knox is mold

Our Kids

Our kids are our kids no matter how old they get The tie is forever, bound by blood, no regrets A time honored role This touching of souls The undying love you give is the love it begets

Analogue's Tributary

Time-honored
in the mountain stream
a jagged one 
once sat,
crafted by policies
of weather
and movement.

I
(standing by),
seasoned 
by policies of conscience 
and question,
reason
this stone 
is analogue
to your tributary,

and to your tribute, Terry.

Darling Grandmother

Darling Afghan grandmother, your weary hands narrates a somber tale
Your bowed head discloses your day by day yearning ail
You have masked your happiness deep under your time-honored veil
Oblivious-- that your offspring’s will follow your footprints-- and abide by this wretched 
trail.

Love Conquers All

If asked to repeat a time-honored passage
I would say it is that “Love Conquers All,”
For, whatever the situation, it is the message
If asked to repeat a time-honored passage,
I'd pass this adage in my far-advanced age:
“Love Conquers All,” sends a clarion call,
If asked to repeat a time-honored passage
I would say it is that “Love Conquers All!”

Time

There's some time-honored glory,
In the twisted roots of rhyme.
Etching out a story,
A shining in the grime.

A white knight haunts in death's delight, 
What in life he couldn't protect.
She'll never stir again despite,
All the sorrow he projects.

The relentless trail he seeks,
Shall never become a path.
The scarlet of her cheeks,
A haunting of his wrath.

Life is lived in desperation.
Death becomes a celebration.

Acrostic For Carol Brown

Time honored functions
Has been tried and perfected
Even the animals know the ways of the birds and the bees

Best with much strutting and songs
Increase the anticipation of love
Regally displayed emotions
Drape the natural colors and
Songs on my heart strings

Advance passionately
New gifts arouse the pleasure
Drawn against his manly charms

To
Hear
Exclamation points!!

Buzzing around in my head
Energeticly
Enticing
Sexuality

Our Hands

Our hands so often shine for us
  though they may undermine us
They might even confine us, yet 
  our hands our what truly define us --

Our hands gesture, gesticulate, threaten and warn
  expressing our feelings from the moment we're born
We wave excited greetings to the world as day dawns 
  bury our faces in them, as a loved one's passing we mourn

Words come out of our mouths, but we speak with our hands
  A time-honored tradition, through time's shifting sands
