Blank Pages
As I reflect on the last 30 years
Biting my lip to hold back the tears
Try to discover the source of my fears
Wondering how did this happen to me
Gaze into a mirror and what do . . .

Lasting keepsakes from life
Random moments immortalized
Arranged in albums; framed decorations
Precious babies forever . . .

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

I can tell you’re upset
How poorly you’ve coped
You will soon regret

Brewed to perfection
Water, grain, yeast, barley, hops;
Beer; from nature’s tap

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

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

For fear that I might miss
Those first triumphant steps forward

Often given yet rarely returned
Is the passion for love that has burned
As hearts and emotions go askew
Too often our efforts in vain
When lovers bring nothing but pain
Yet again and again . . .

Her gentle curves defining feminine beauty
That glittering green dress flowing over her form;
A silken stream cascading over polished ivory

A burger; well done

Their kitty has not been de-clawed
From her scratches, my face is now flawed
Their cat’s out of the bag
That feline scalawag
By my in-laws I have been outlawed! . . .
