I can tell you this, it is NOT my wife's cooking. She is a doll and an excellent cook. A better baker.
A few days ago I was in a short conversation with a friend and he said he had eaten rattlesnake. . . .

Your hand in mine as we walk
My hand in yours as we talk
Our hearts beat as one...

Repetition of Life

Every morning when she wakes to rise
She gets that cute little squint in her eyes
And though she's not really ready to rise
She heads to the shower before me

Monday morning had arrived unwelcomed. Karen began her day by blindly following years of instinct; showering, making coffee, and burning some toast. The numbness of her mind told her to stay home. It was . . .

I cannot walk through a day without thinking of you
Your gentle way of smiling at me
The soothing way you touch
I cannot sleep at night
Until the images of you clear from my head
Until the . . .

It's smart not to speak to the matter
"Does wearing this dress make me fatter?"
I have no replys
I know that is wise
Last time my head wound up flatter

You had loved me long before I knew,
Before I understood what could be known.
I mistook life as having shown me love.
Oh, so wrong I was. So wrong.
To others I had sought to give my heart. . . .

I met a sweet young Lassie so many years ago. I am unsure of all of the sweet names we have traded over almost thirty years. My memory tells me that she didn't like meatball even though . . .

It is better now
The difference wonderful
You have become a woman
But I was slow to learn
You were patient
Wise beyond years
I was terrified of you
How would you be different?

Hope no one minds. I am on a slight writer's block and so I am dolling up some of my previous poems. For me there is nothing much worse than a pair of tight pinching shoes. Well maybe a life that . . .

When did you know?
What sign did you see?
What caused your decision?
Where were you?
When did you understand?
What epiphany?
What reason did you find?
Were you alone? With me?

Love Is A Verb

That great feeling we all know.

I say hello and drop a kiss
I whisper your sweet name
I ask you how your day progressed
You tell me "Just the same"
I watch each day as you so press
I help you . . .
