A Poem

Getting Old There are things I can’t remember, That I’m not sure I ever knew. There are places that I can’t recall, I’m not sure I’ve ever been to. There are people I can’t picture, I'm not positive I ever met. It can be hard to say if I ever knew, Or did I just forget.                                                                        “THE”                                               ...

Battleground

Battleground We've all fought so many battles We tend to count the ones we lost. Trying to build upon our failures Never adding up the cost. The big ones seem to be remembered Fallen soldiers tossed aside. Forgetting all the minor battles We should be counting up with pride. Good days adding to the memories And the bad days taking toll. We need to light our way from darkness Live our lives, not just play a role. Happiness sure can be elusive Especially the perfect kind. We've got to grab onto the goodness And capture it in our mind. “THE” 5/31/14

Visions

I see you sometimes as you were laughing, not crying. walking, not lying. doing, not trying. living, not dying. I see you mostly as you are sitting, not walking. quiet, not talking. with death stalking. But, I see you sometimes as you were.
