The Pedestrian

The Pedestrian Poems

It all comes down to this
he's good with cats and kids
My little black dog
...

Penguins - little antarctic pedestrians
We are all God's penguins
but I drift
Yes, I drift
...

Father and son
such a precious thing
Can make you cry
sometimes'll make you sing
...

Somewhere in your heart
I know that you believe
everything will be okay
and deep inside
...

Dear diary
we need to talk
Dear diary
you start
...

We never expect much from you
but you always surprise us.
It's nice having more than enough
decorations to adorn you with
...

Give and take
Ebb and flow
Holding tight
Letting go
...

Only time will tell
throw another penny
in the wishing well
I think you know what I mean
...

Here is my love song for you
I'll love you life after life
I had been waiting, anticipating
the day that we'd be man and wife
...

A mountain arose above LA
but nobody seemed to care
and what did it matter anyway
for there were other mountains there
...

And the wind
whispered
change
...

I found love
when I found you

Sure as the sunrise
...

There's a garden with white roses
and flowers wild
When the wind blows
you can see for miles
...

I often wonder why
people say one thing
turn and do another
...

If you wait
long enough
let your garden grow
...

You can take your sweetest dream
turn it all around
keep it till the morning
and know that's where you're bound
...

I sure miss al-Kindi
He died around 873
I should probably get over it
...

Flowers blossom
in the wood
They don't all get
the love they should
...

A garden
a song
a painting
a pass and a dunk
...

building up
like rainclouds
or butterflies
about to pour
...

The Pedestrian Biography

'Words, like families and nations, have rich histories that can be traced through written records. Words have meanings that you encounter every day and others that lurk only in dictionaries.' From 'The Everything Writing Poetry Book' by Eliopulos and Moffett. I'm just a pedestrian waiting patiently on the corner while people driving by look left then turn right and are surprised to see me as I stand there shrugging and waving. Shrugging, waving, and smiling. Sharing is connecting. Create and appreciate!)

The Best Poem Of The Pedestrian

My Little Black Dog

It all comes down to this
he's good with cats and kids
My little black dog

I wrote a song with nothin' to say
all we need is a sunny day
and everything will be okay
with me
and my little black dog

(Now here comes the 'heavy' part)

The truth comes out when we're alone
What I can't see will all be shown
It all comes down to this
he's good with cats and kids
and I like that
'deed I do

You might have seen me on the street
I'm the guy you'll never meet
with a wave and a smile
and my little black dog

yeah, yeah, yeah, my little black dog

From my book, 'Rusty the Cat, a Story In the Telling' This quote looks an awful lot like a poem. Let me assure you the resemblance is purely coincidental. 'Rusty laid waste to the catbox He burnt that mutha down Nobody else can use it That's sure to bring a frown Rusty laid waste to the catbox I'm sure you catch my drift Unfortunatly, it'll have to be me that has to shovel and sift.' The only justification for something like this is if you believe there's a time and a place for everything - and I do mean everything!
