Her Love Song

They've been blessed with a wonderful life…with a love resilient and strong…
but all her life it has been her wish to write him a love song.

The old poet smiled at the young boy…"Sometimes…" she said, "they're in the voices of the birds."

"Sometimes they're with my friends and family…sometimes on strangers in a crowd…sometimes they rise up with the morning sun…sometimes they're drifting on a cloud."

A Smiling Flower

How can a smiling flower...drawn in crayon...make you sigh...
Make you smile...make you tingle...bring a teardrop to your eye?

Could it be you love the artist...and the artist loves you too...

Dear Serena

Dear Serena Williams…I want to take a moment and apologize to you
for something I didn't say…something I did not do.

As we waited under a crab apple tree for our pizza the other day

Good Vs Evil?

The more I observe politicians everywhere the more it sickens me
As I watch two incompatible sides struggling for supremacy.

They think they're in a good versus evil battle but when all is said and done
