A Bit of Story and A Glimpse of Shine

A bit of heart for them who lost it A bit of earth for them who lost their steps A bit of warmth for them who frozen A bit of love for those who hate A glimpse of light for those who are blinded A glimpse of hope for those who are in need A

When the rose rises

When the rose rises

She is but a humble seed craddled in the warm arms of mother earth Enshrouded in darkness her loving stem pushes quietly and ever upwards towards the sun of life She is but a bud of hope when her tiny peddles and dew drop eyes smile at the

The Beautiful Victrola

The Beautiful Victrola

I was trying to write a poem that was somehow reflective of the lost value (in todays world) of elderly folks without being insensitive or tactless in my effort. My intention was to declare that The Beautiful Victrola STILL has much value and worth - just as our wonderful aged folks around the world also have!!! Hugs to all you wonderful, beautiful, lovely aged people who read this poem as being my personal effort of expressing a tribute to your worth in poetic expression.

The icy wind stripped her skin to bone and crops of goose bumps dotted her bare arms and legs. She guarded her skirt from filling with air and exposing her most private of places. She pulled her blouse closed at her neck, and while doing so, felt h

It used to be, that I’d waste precious hours of ‘life-time’ trying to figure out why, suddenly, for any of a myriad reasons, acrimony erupts between me and my beloved, In the past, I’d want to ‘analyze this to death’, And, I’d easily win any argume
