Twenty-Four Notes

A bugler stands silent and alone
Deep within the garden of stone
And as the first three notes sound
Echoing across this sacred ground
Resounding in the mourners’ ears
Stir each soul and summon tears
The bugler plays soft and slow
Twenty-four notes we all know
That in our souls resonate
They honor and commemorate
The Veteran we lay to rest
By whose service we were

August 13th, 2025 – twenty six plus years since awful series of unfortunate events

The following poem posted about a half hour before the bewitching hour that spelled calamity (which though a freaky Friday the thirteenth) did (nor does) not find me exceptionally superstitious, and rather than wait for the morrow, I feel so pent up

Quickie

In the next life
if reincarnated
as a mayfly
I am designated
it's good enough for me
with nothing but fun
for twenty-four hours
(under the sun)
until the race is run
bonking here bonking there
I'll be bonking everywhere
non-stop until I drop

Love Mineral Number Twenty Three

Te quiero , I love You,Ti amo,
there have been
songs endearing
some worth sharing
some I dare not
romantic lyrics
sounds you hear it
I Love You sounds great
when your the number one guy
tell me I love you
when I'm bruised by 
your loving
and I'll ask myself why
Fussing and cussing all about
with a tear in my eye
and you say I'm foolish
and I

At Twenty-Eight

A Jaw biopsy was done to determine the issue,
The Doctors first response “looks like scar tissue”.

His next question was, “have you ever been hit on the Jaw”?
In an attempt to be funny my response brought no hurrah,

“Yes, I have on a few occasions, hit a fist with my face”,
when endeavoring to put another, in what

July first two thousand and twenty five

July first two thousand and twenty five...
signals the eighth year we lived
at our present location,
where fringe benefits (a plug) for perks
living at 2 highland manor drive.

Expanse of green acres draped
like a petticoat when ye arrive
birds of a feather flock together
and bees gather collect nectar,
pollen, and water to bolster their hive
verdant vista sports
spot for wildlife to

Postcard, to a Friend from Twenty-Four Years Ago

They treated me for bipolar disorder.
I wanted you to know.

Although the doctors later said
it was the Adipex-p and weed 
mimicking 
an up-and-down disease—
it hasn’t happened since.

I still think it was more than that.

Hard to believe 
it’s been more than twenty years— 
that fourth of July,
when I read your mind at the Washington Mall,

Twenty-Four Dr Peppers

24 Dr Peppers
 One day I started running and my legs fell off.
 I was in the army, and I had to clean the floor with a toothbrush.
 It started raining sideways.
 Then a bullet jumped up and bit me that day.
 Jenny threw her shoe at her old house.
 I guess she ran out

Twenty-First Century Wonder

Iridescent against sand and stone 
Lies and battle cries
California fields sundered and sterile
Networks of new wars 
Hungry feed the gas lamps and hollow 
Walls and eyes
Eye circles of influencers and titans in free fall
Self-defining nano gods rush to the cistern, dry as bone 
Breathe deep pregnant age 
Show us now our modern home

Twenty Twenty Vision

Jacques Daviel
A brilliant eye specialist Jaques Daviel,
does his cataract field at all ring a bell?
the word cataract used with utmost respect,
on his vision and foresight I duly reflect


Francisus Donders
In the same branch was Francisus Donders,
in ocular tracts the man worked wonders,
some Dutch streets bare this specialist's name,
Tilburg  his birth place blessed by his fame

I must apologize
I became bored with you

Some parents need to read Revelation Twenty twelve

To all you parents out there who doesn't have a clue.
God is always watching and sees all that we do.
We will give account to him for how we raise our kids.
Stop blaming everyone else for the things you did.
You blame the teacher, police and others for the things they do.
When most behavior that they have,
