Turned upside down,
That frosted glaze.
Savored.
To have it around...
...
Kisses to get in relationships,
Can linger on lips like a fine wine.
And will come to miss them wished,
When the ones who are close,
...
It takes life to live it,
To learn from many lessons.
And some will find,
That teaching done to come...
...
Statistics to keep,
Are no more reliable to collect...
Than the ever changing,
New England weather.
...
These days we live to see,
Many minds scattered.
In tied 'forget-me-knots'.
Dropping to splatter and shatter,
...
I have got a 'thing'
For trust.
And loyalty.
I've got this 'thing',
...
People want to keep their lives to live,
Grounded and stable.
Whether or not those shocks that shift,
Have long been made.
...
Stung and it shows...
Those joke provokers.
Heads bowed.
Those joke provokers.
...
More naysayers of those yesterdays gone,
Are heard to be sighing about what's going on.
And doing it with wishes,
That the ones they were taught to disrespect...
...
It's not the keys to a free Cadillac.
Or an expensive wardrobe presented,
To one stunned to realize...
They have been treated with gifts,
...
