The Ghost of Halloween
Last year there were only six kids came to the door. These youngsters get too much every day and don't have the ambition to walk from the car to the porch... Ah well, that's just one old curmudgeon's opinion
My Big Sister
Dedicated lovingly to her...
My First Time
True story. Kathy was fourteen and experienced. I was eighteen and green. Fortunately, she didn't get pregnant. Her mom came home later and Kathy walked me to the car, then I realized I had left my wallet in the bedroom when I got the condom out. She went back in to get it and after a couple of minutes her mom called out, "What color is it?" I managed to choke out, "Black." Kathy came out with it a moment later. I asked her what she had told her mom and she said that the kids were playing hide and seek with it. lol

Reflections as the pain subsides...
To Rasputina
The name caught my eye on a Ticketmaster calendar, so I had to check it out. Played in a smaller venue in St. Louis and I went. Got the t-shirt and her autograph. Huge fan!

How You Know.
I spoke with my daughter over the weekend. I said I was now able to tell her something I could never tell her before. I've never repeated to her the common wisdom of love that "You'll know it when you find it" because until I met LadyBee, I had no way to know if it was true. But now I do know that it's true. Like love, itself, though... you'll only know this as truth after you've found it.
To the Warmonger
I think everyone knows who I mean...
Deciding to Fly
A flight of fancy...
On LDRs
Just my thoughts on the subject...
Materializing the Dream
I looked for Ladybee42 my whole life. I just didn't know exactly what she looked like or where she lived, but I knew who I was looking for and words can never express the feelings I've felt now that I've found her.
Another Day
Maybe soon all our days will be this average. :)

Poets Coming Clean
It's too wonderful to keep to ourselves.
Wild Fire
No warning given, it began. A small and feeble spark. Tinder ignited and wind did fan. A glowing ember in the dark. The fields had grown both high and dry The winds now shifted east. And flames leaped up into the sky And so was born the beas

My snapshot of the six great Romantic poets.
lamplight testimony
this was a difficult write. It brought out quite a diversity of feelings; grief, hopelessness apprehensiveness, excitement, and hope. I love the dramatic properties it possesses. I love sad stories with happy endings. Death is not something to be feared.
Russian Women
Culture and love.
Body Mine
This is one of my earlier poems, let me know what you think.
When it Stops Turning
We creep towards our destiny with futures bright as sun whilst ever-present loneliness binds us tight as one a generation lost at sea like many gone before a generation’s ecstasy veils thinly wanting more a whirling pool of stagnant hate of
Victory
Victory! Says pounding drums Success! The trumpets blaze Triumph! Soldiers march in time As the masses craze Elated with our conquest Glinting off our guns Enemies defeated We thrill aloud as one Shaking off our weary Standing up our pride
And then?
Whoever knows what was said, in passions grasp, unruly head, tis not to wisdom I was born, or kindred spirit in other form, and time will pass and play its game, committed all,,,we end the same. lessons learned and then begone, just some rehe
