The taste of a fine Rye on my tongue
Brings back the memories
That I will never have…
RYE… a poem

WISDOM OF THE WINDS… a poem
When the wind comes whispering
But my heart’s out of reach
Who am I
Can I deny
The lessons it could teach
Unwavering, its determination
To do what it must do
No obstacle is too great
Breathe in a breath or two
Step back and take a look again
In myself find belief
For tomorrows on the horizon
When my time comes to teach
ROCK BOTTOM… a very short story
And then I hit rock bottom… I thought to myself, if not aloud, “This is it! I’m all washed up and literally on rock bottom. Things in life cannot get any worse! All the work… all my life… and now, rock bottom. I guess that’s it! Nothing to do but… Ooo, that’s cool! It kind of looks like a fossil or something! I wonder if there are anymore around here. There’s another one! Wow! Who knew rock bottom could hold so much promise? Huh!”
The End
WILL… a poem
When the momentum shifts
You’ve no one to blame
Take stock in yourself
And try to refrain
From saying words
You’ll surely regret
The clock keeps on ticking
On this, you can bet
Kill them with kindness
Or just smile and nod
Keep your distance from meanness
Don’t be a fraud
For when this time passes
Again, as it will
You can look in the mirror
And smile at God’s will
SIREN SONG… a poem
Serenade me
If you must
Know my will
Is my own
Deaf, these ears
To the Siren song
You still sing
There, all alone
Chances lost
They’ve ebbed away
Tides have turned
And, so have I
Nevermore
Not again
Will I be drowned
To quench your pride
THE KISS… a poem
I felt the kiss
And was immediately warmed
Such a sensation
The bond was soon formed
Not to forget, no
Not anytime soon
As this sunburn I sport
Hurts like a son-of-a-@#$*&
TIME…
To the brokenhearted
No words can heal
Time will nurture their wounds
