Biting my lip to hold back the tears

Or wouldn’t they fit?
If I could start over,
What would I leave out?
The pain and the . . .

Hello there, my friend

How poorly you’ve coped

Moonlight bathes the land;
A parent’s gentle gaze rests

Which makes my house feel more like a home
And sit back in my favorite chair
With my faithful dog curled before the hearth
Pictures . . .

Beats like a drum
An ongoing work of art
Always play my part
As a guitar pick does thrum
The music of my heart
When did this symphony start? . . .

Of feminine wiles
Fresh scent of strawberries
Newly picked;
Sweet air of honey
Straight from the hive; . . .

Hunter/Gatherer
Nomadic hunter
Traveling in search of food
Thin bountiful herds
Starting at daybreak
Farmer tending to his crops
Until late at night
Both have their merits . . .

Perfect Weekend
Seventy degrees
Barely a cloud in the sky
Cool breeze off the lake
Grilling under setting sun
Sleeping beneath rising moon

I would be more than willing to part with it all
The treasures I've hoarded no matter their cost

Afraid
To even blink
For fear that I might miss
Those first triumphant steps forward

I saw her from behind, from afar
Her gentle curves defining feminine beauty
That glittering green dress flowing over her form;
A silken stream cascading over polished ivory
