Make a wish
Dream however big
wish a Redwood
and not a mere twig
...
True love will never try to hurt you
True love is a whisper in its sound
True love may stray but it will not leave you
It will always remind you when it's not around
...
As your reward
For producing a terrorist son or daughter
You shall not suffer the death of a martyr
But just an anticipated and welcomed death
...
I felt lucky to be on a perfectly frozen lake
skating like a young kid
with a hockey stick in hand
Below freezing
...
Five dollars will get you into the State fair
Well worth all the sights and sound and flavors there
You park your car and feel the Fall air
As a tractor pulled wagon train takes you there
...
After all of life's baits and switches
I dream of love and not of riches
one heart loyal and true
boundless love and softness too
...
Dear Father
Why should I bother?
Father's Day is just another day
You say...
...
Blueberry Muffin
So moist and warm
A browned crisp top
Sprinkled with large crystals of sugar
...
He had been a pioneer of songwrting
And the music business
A songwriter before his time
Before there was a music industry
...
How much of our love do we waste
In anticipation of just a taste
But the taste leaves us wanting more
The minute our hearts leave the door
...
