The man who a Pharaoh would be
Must dress for success to the T.
The hair 'neath his chin
Must wrap round his shin:
It cannot be just to the knee!
I would have been here sooner
But I got in a fight with time
And lost you see.
It wasn't fair.
I slept in a little bit,
and it started his day
way before me.
I asked him
where he would be
about 2 or 3.
And he said
he would be around.
I didn't know he meant
around 9 or 10.
Thats that last place
I thought he would be found.
I tried to catch up,
but he's quick on his feet.
Racing ahead
while I stumble and greet
the moments I missed,
slipping through my grasp.
Leaving me wondering
how long will this last?
He laughs when I plan,
he's always ahead
While I chase the hours
I should have instead
set my alarm.
But he just rolls his eyes.
Apparently time
doesn't do compramise.
Now I'm here
though I've lost track of when
(was it morning or evening again?)
But don't worry
I've got a new trick to try.
I will fight him again
after one last goodbye.
So I will make a new pact.
No more chasing him down.
Instead I will slow it all
right here right now.
I bought a new watch,
and set it to see.
That now time has to start
watching me!
"funny"
phonetically he

Oh the view, up here you can see the world
Distance so much of it, no end of it
And down! Oh down, it is so far away
We came from there, son and me
On rope sure, strapped in harness, metal kit
A protection we tried to ignore
A team we made from start to here
Fingers feeling for holds, each tiny hold
Skin on cold rock, each little cleft
Toes seeking to perch if only for a moment
Challenging yes, moments when the heart skips
Nervous laughs, care to throw me a crab, a friend, a sling?
Words so funny, but might save our lives
Each in turn we lead a pitch, playing out rope
Not father or son, a pair, each skilled, sharing the delight
Sharing the little fears, sometimes the comedy of a slipped hand or foot
Laughing it away with shaky voice
Up and up, we move, crawling on a vertical plane
Breeze, fresh, open and such freedom
Two tiny figures in a joined endeavor
As fingers curl over the edge of the slab
As son pulls up to the top
Then we stand, together excited, proud
From up here we can see the world

Perseverance, ingenuity: hallmarks of great mind...
Examples which we Earthlings are expecting more to find.
As NASA's news now streams from Mars, where there is little air
And yet they're setting up the helicopter dispatched there.
With AIR as so essential for the flight of an AIRcraft
We'll see if JPL designers are clever - or just daft!
My wife said to me
She didn't feel well,
And if I don't mind, would I cook.
I told her to lay down
And have a good rest,
While I get my new cookery book.
So she went to lie down,
And I went for my book.
Oh what a surprise,
I was in luck.
Hiding behind my new cookery book
Was a menu from a good takeaway.
So I waited an hour,
Then sprinkled some flour,
Then ordered a pizza,that day!
I do not intend to offend.
But it occurs to me,
in the end
it’s not those who can do
yet don’t do,
but those who do
do who win!

Off to the DMV? Yay!! My weekends off to a great start
Where you can hear every burp and smell every fart
If anybody would have mercy on me they'd shoot me
So I wouldn't have to go back to the DMV
Of that place I have yet to find a perk
In and out more like take a day off work
It's hell on earth nothing but stress
Do I hate the DMV? YES
Didn't bring the right paperwork big shock there
My big pleeding eyes were responded to without care
A kid comes in and he starts to bawl
Tempted to bang my head against the wall
Miss please get me in faster...wrong thing to say
Go sit in the chair for the rest of the day
Welp, there goes my pride
I feel like a kid whose forced to stay inside
Despite all that we need the DMV
Make it bearable by having everything ready
Neil Armstrong shot off to the moon
Strapped into a cosmic cocoon.
He came to renown
When one foot went down
Ahead of poor Buzz -what a boon!
But as they returned to home base,
Buzz had a big smile on his face.
For there on the sea
Of tranquility
He'd aced the first 'selfie' in space!

Success. By definition, it means a favorable or desired outcome. Funny, that doesn’t denote a positive or negative act. It only states a favorable outcome, the accomplishment of an intent. Good or bad, attainment of a goal is a success.
Competitions... Exams... Deadlines? Does a trophy feel the same as money?
Success is addicting, right? When we achieve success, we want to repeat it. If we did it once, we can do it again. Fall? Get back up and try harder. How many people have ever said, “Wahoo, I lost again!!! I hope I score last place next time!!!”
Winning a title brings with it a prestige... Honor... Something many strive for. Second place, third place, anyplace. It doesn’t matter. When it matters enough, we get back up and try harder with the hopes that we will be... A success - a favorable or desired outcome.
What success are you known for?
I can do this, I can do that
I can do anything, splicketty-splat.
I'm quite the expert, and certainly quick
Excellent service here, licketty-click.
Your toaster won't roast'er?
Your car needs repair?
I'll fix your teepee,
your sofa and chair
I'll cure your doggy
of fleas, lice, and pox
I'll wash your diapers,
your windows, your socks.
I'm inexpensive, and fast as a wink
Available any time, blinkity-blink.
The city celebrates a huge success and luck.
It's over now with wave of vielent crimes!
A last gangster with a broken ribs and spine
Was fried and eaten in the forest by maniac.
That just sounds like another Que,
But I guess it will have to Dew.
Standing on the stage with Mi throat too Di,
I could almost start to cry.
But then I saw Hugh in the crowd
And almost laughed out loud.
Your nerves were Wilder than mine
Which reminded me of my punch line.
After Al was said and done,
I did have a Lot of fun.
I couldn’t Wade for my next Turner,
If Edwin, I’d take my career further.
Another older post.....funny how some material things represent success....these red-soled shoes certainly do exactly that to many women, including my grandddaughter (maybe she'll get a pair if she graduates from med school)- so here's to my girl and what I know goes through her mind when she sees picture of "Christian Louboutin's"
One word is all that comes to mind-
As I hear the tapping of heels on pavement,
Christian Louboutin, the slayer of all shoes,
I see the smooth black leather studded pumps,
The tiny details of his red soles catch my eye,
I know when I wear them I will raise my head up high,
Rarely do people disapprove,
Always sold in pairs – that’s two,
I know one day I’ll own a few,
Christian Louboutin, the slayer of all shoes!
One picture is all that comes to mind-
When I see the soles of a special kind,
I kick my feet up high,
Longing for the day when I can wear those heels with pride,
Makeup, hair, and nails all match,
My red soles and I can never be detached,
The sight of a deep red,
It is what I’ve tattooed in my head,
Permanently stitched into my view,
Christian Louboutin, the slayer of all shoes!
Boy From Troy
There once was a boy from Troy
That Unisys would not employ
He said he really didn't care
he'd find work elsewhere
Now he's working for Henkels and McCoy
