Thanking God, His most graciousness, I am all healed.
Totally at peace, my grateful body now feels.
Crushed knee, thigh broken in two pieces.
I howled uncontrollably,with no ceases.
Trauma center,six hour surgery.
Hospital, heaven on earth!
Food for royalty.
Kindness galore.
Perfection!
Tribute to UC Davis Trauma Center, Sacramento, California
Thank you, miracle workers!

Note to poets. Horrendous fall in November. Took 6 months to heal.
How great the ability to walk is! It feels akin to flying.
Thanks to all of you who wrote, read my poetry and supported me.
And a first class family, who stood by me, on this long road to
recovery.
All of you are angels!

Poetry is like opera to me.
It brings some, to your very soul’s gate!
Some poets only pen for a witty, rude
fast laugh.
I don’t think life is a bowl of chuckling human
guffaws and gaffes!
Some will never comment to you.
So what?
Make this not a popularity zoo, poetry is not akin to showing off
brand new shoes!
True friends are not like a bag of apocryphal popcorn!
Spitting philosophical gems like a dunce, all over a college dorm,
All kinds of varied, creative poets here!
Some write way too long, some too short.
Then, there are also, humble deep philosophers.
Find a few who make you purr.
Those that make your heart, stir!
**Read well known poets each day.
This is a must, a learning foray.**
These are just things I learned
since being here.
Beautiful poetry brings me to tears.
Cliches as comments should be
banned.
Empty and cold in this poet’s heart and
hands.

Tribute to all who at Trauma Center,
UC Davis, who assisted me in healing.
Medical Teams!
I’ ve been here 21 days!
You all provided for my every need!
I mean far beyond things medical....
There is something in each of you
Amazingly rainbow and spiritual!
I came here with my arrogance and
inner fight.
You, softened these fires with listening,
outstanding care and making things,
oh,so right!
Thank you for making the darkness so bright.
I will see your compassionate faces, smiling
from heavenly bright stars,each night!

AWOL
My GF seems to have gone AWOL
So I’ve raised the alarm with INTERPOL,
With the F.B.I and the C.I.A.
And even tried Y.M.C.A.
An S.O.S on the B.B.C.
A daily call to N.Y.P.D.
I’ve written to every A&E
(Enclosing, of course, an S.A.E.)
Scotland Yard say their C.I.D.
Have checked every seaside B&B
I want to speak to her U.C.
To ask if she’ll B.R.B.
Tonight I’m starting to visit A.A.
I’ve just heard she’s married in L.A.

The water, cloaked in the mist of a yellow dawn,
Summoned souls to the shore of beguiling dreams.
Sail true, My pilot, My hope,
Into thy Dijon Fantasy.

I am tired of being *uc* by people that have lost their guts.
Ain’t in nothing but ducky tubs washing their butts.
Plus, the earth is barren.
The trees are sticks without leaves.
This is because the Lord ain’t sending any sunshine not pleased.
Mankind lost their minds long-ago.
The unknown has contemplated.
Then they wash their clothes in unclean water.
However, their mentality knows nothing of this.
Why do we live in two mediums?
The political picture is our leaders are deceiving us.
We must stand our ground in this Powerhouse.
If we do not, we will suffer from capitalism.
The antidote states that experience is the best teacher.
If we don’t deploy advocacy, this democracy will become rancor.
We are the people.
Therefore, we are what we construct.
Political activism is fostered.
Political asylum is festered.
This is our nation; therefore, let us augment the strength we have.
The closing remark is if we don’t, no one will.

I am but a single Lamb
One of many in a flock
When I speak to the Lord
I do not stutter as I talk
Think that’s why I love to write
Fluent as one could be
When I try to speak the words
It’s impossible for me
Bugs bunny and I are alike
Hbad-uh , hebad-uc. hbad-uh
Right by our name
What ever in life we may do
That’s our claim to fame
I'll be the first to admit that the humor
is a little dry - This is based on my life -
Most of my life I stuttered - still do but
I've made my peace with it - tilt your
head to the left then twitch real fast
while batting your eyes To get the full
effect of the h-bad-uh h-bad-uh line.
