The Tide Rises, the Tide Falls
I’ve borrowed the title from Longfellow’s poem “The Tide Rises, the Tide Falls.” As Macduff says: "Sometimes we just have to commit if we are to stay vaguely in control of things," in control of our life.

That First Tender Kiss
Wistful reminiscing of that first tender kiss and making the choice to be untamed or settle down with that yet fiery spirit.

air conditioner
Another invention I am really glad I can afford. I love my air conditioner in my apartment and car. Thankfully I still have one in my car so I can keep the windows always rolled up to keep the bugs out and my ability to sing without disturbing anyone. This morning I sang to Madonna's La Isla Bonita, Susan Vega's Tom's Diner, and Whitney Houston's Greatest Love of All.
THE WALLS HAVE EARS
As you can see, this poem was written many years ago. I am revisiting the echoes of the past today and sharing a couple of them with you. Those old poems show me my growth and are chapters of my life. We can all relate to the dust that has collected and sometimes I learn new things from mine.

"Shove Off"
I think taking a cruise would be a GRAND WAY to experience a bit of change from the mundane, day in, day out routine of life and all the hurdles that come with it!! Never been on one myself, but would sure enjoy the experience! Especially since I don't know the guy looking at me in the mirror anymore!! Anyone want to take me on a cruise with them? :-)
Love me
Just dreaming of a love I wish to find..thats all.

Storrington re-visited.
Storrington a village that derives its name from Saxon times, Stor being the stream running through, and ton a dwelling place. There I spent my childhood,recently I re-visited those bygone haunts, nestling still beneath the Southdowns, this my reflection.
When Tears Dare Fall
I pray a lot and at times cry...not a lot...but just so I can purge the undesirable out...I prefer doing this over indulging in pointless arguments or making others feel guilty when I don't get what I want...

Music Box Ballerina
I'm sure a porcelin ballerina would like to be human for at least a while and people sometimes need a safe and carefree fantasy world to ease their stress.
Flowering
Like a bud slowly opening its petals one by one to the sun's warmth. So too does love creep into hearts, once there it soon expands blossoming. Spreading like wildfire it floods and fills every little corner and all the cracks. New love ne

HEAVENLY NUGGETS
To me the success of my life is more about how I lived my life to make things here in my own little world better. How to help others (was a public employee for 34 years)in my community, church, friends and most of all my family/loved ones. To me that is more important in God's eyes then money, power and success. Love is the most important thing in this world. And God is Love. He wants us to live in Love and to give that Love to others. Then one day I pray to live in Heaven with Him.
Happiness is bad!
An article I came across in the Internet and translated for you. Don't know the author, and this is not my opinion, but I agree with the advice given by the scholars: the more you think about being happy and such things the less happy you feel. Better think about how fortunate you are to have been brought here on earth as a rational human being capable of all earthly and unearthly feelings. This is happiness in a true sense! I am thankful to God for each and every day of seeing the beauties of His creation all around!!!
Medicine Waters of the Great Spirit
Ripley's Believe it or Not called it the "Eighth Wonder of the World" in 1984. To Abenaki American Indians, it is a sacred spot with natural healing powers. Over the last two centuries, people with enterprising ideas have envisioned it as a place of business. Four hotel fires later, they were left to wonder: was it coincidence that led to their failure, or the curse of Brunswick Springs, Vermont?

No Chains To Shackle Me
There will be no chains to shackle me. I am like the blowing wind. I can be a nice calm day. Or a storm that is on its way. But I will run free. I come from the time of peace and love. And you were old if you were thirty or above. A time w

Dark moments in my Daughters life.
To start with the first truth,this Poem was very hard to do,I cry and write,cry and write again and again,the feelings of the memories came out from the shadow. Her Mother did not want children at all,what I could not understand,because I wonted so many of them and I was believing,that as a Mother she is sure going to Love her children,but I was badly wrong. We was over all to far from each other in to many things and then I left the family for my two Sons Mother. My Love for my Daughter was very deep and her Mother was very jealous about it and told to my Daughter that she was the reason to our divorce. She told my Mother,that she is going to do everything she can to destroy my life. Before that she met with my new Love and they made a deal,that if I take care of her needs,then she give my Daughter to us. When I heard it ,I could not accept that other people make a deal about how to use me and I did refuse. I have think about it many time later and that I should had accept to be used,then I could had safe my Daughter from the horrible things that was done to her. Later my Daughter was taken with Ambulance two times unconscious to the Hospital,but nobody still checked what was the real reason.....I never knew what had happen,but if I had heard about it,I had for sure not believed in any accident. My Daughter got finally courage enough to brake her self out from the jail she had live in from 4 years old on the Fathers day,when she was 15,she came to me and refused to go back to the Mother. From 4 years old,she had to wash her own cloth,make food,take care of all her own things and also wash the floor of whole the apartment on knees in an old way,she kept her as an made or in fact more as like a Slave. About 20 years ago,she got a stroke in the Brain where she had got the damage when the Mother kick her around the room. The Doctor was thinking she hardly going to survive,but I think she is of hardwood as I am and she survived. She still has to take Aspirin every day to keep the blood thin and a shadow is of course hanging over her. After she moved to live with me,she still had hardship with her self,she was not sure who she was,because the Mother had destroyed almost all her own will. She start to drink in secret and when I realized it,she was already alcoholic.
This Simple Life
Reminiscing about following Dad around and learning to ride.Mom, bless her heart, tried to put me in frilly dresses, but I was having none of it. My entire life has involved cowboys in one way or another, it's simply a life I can't deny.
