To Find Your Way

To find your way
Each and every day

Let your inner light

Shine through
To guide you

Important Stuff We Wait On

Toast to pop up

Popcorn to pop

Coffee to brew

5:00

The Waitress

Pay day

Vacation

Election results

Christmas Morning

God to answer our prayers

And God waits to hear whatever we want to say.

But especially…

My Philosophy

A glass half full
Or half empty

Still has enough left
For a good drink!

Aspiring

Aspiring to the heights
May take all yer mights

But it’s worth every bit
When ya makes yer hit!

Always
Set your
Plans to
Include
Realistic and achievable
Ends!

Inspired by a chat with Temeka the twin

Lights

Sky light
Sky bright

Carry me thru
All this blue

Till the delight
Of a peaceful night

Then after the nights
Starlight and moonlight

Earth’s again alight
With bright daylight

A Winterly Message From The Friendly Skies:

The world

Will be white

By tonight!

Choices

We
Make
Our own
Choices

Regardless
Of others voices

And the results are
Our responsibility!

We will ultimately pay
For our actions today

So choose very well
To avoid Hell!

'Cause it's got
To be hot
There!

The first Sign?

Numbness
Invades the mind
Leaving my thoughts blind
Would you be so kind
Please help me find
My way in time

Old Age

That “I’ve got to stop
Thinking about things

As I’m on my way
To do other things”

Syndrome

Gas & O!

I toil, I toil
For gas & oil

Oh, the money I earn
Just to watch it burn

Life '09!

Life is what it is...
Just try to keep
Up with it!!

Volunteer:

Very important person:
One who cares about others
Leaving the comfort of their home
Under all sorts of conditions with
No thought for the time it takes.
This person
Exudes
Excellence in attitude with
Respect for others

Thank you for being one, if you are.
If you’re not, then thank one for me.

Share this thought with others.

Riley, Oh Riley...

Riley, oh Riley, wherefore art thou
Quietly conversing with some cow?

Is that where you got your Farm-Rhymes
About those far and distent olden times?

On that distant day, oh so hot
I am certain that that you were not

Trying to discover the lost Lewis Carroll
Hiding with Jabberwock in a whisky barrel

Pondering Elizabeth Barrett Browning
With quiet romantic thoughts burning

Or perhaps peering into a future's haze
Of some of Ogden Nash's poetic maze

For you are the down to earth
Poetry's 20th century rebirth

Written im memory of James Whitcomb Riley
The revered "Hoosier Poet"

Snoring

The gentle rhythmic
Snore of your spouse

Is a reassuring sound
In a dark quiet house

Timely Thoughts



A watched pot never boils

A watched clock slows down

Lonely nights linger longer

The the spark of love quickens the heart

And... Lovers live longer!


May your New Year be lovely!
