Month: January 2024

How do you like your

Wounds? Sewn or spliced?

You have to be careful

There is winter ice.

I fell two years ago

It was black ice

I have been healing

Ever since. The said it

Would take twenty four  

Months. It is dreadful

Seemingly, no success.

Don’t give up, keep trying

You’re making progress.

So, I listen and try

I want to sit down and cry

But, I show up at physical

Therapy and am treated

Every admirably .

They encourage and applause

One more month then a pause.

I’ll see the doctor, he will look

At me and say very seriously

You need more P.T.

LONESOME DAY.docx

LONESOME DAY.docx

Every day is a new challenge

What to write about

Sometimes a simple rhyme

Other times some philosophy

In the end you are happy to

Have filled a sheet of paper.

Today I see snowflakes singularly

Falling to the ground. I can count

Them, one, two, three, and so on.

They could totally add up into the

Millions. I think of all the people

Who died during the covid epidemic,

Which turned out to be a big political

Mess and then the millions who died

Or were distressed by the hands of

Hamas and how half of our country

Were cheering for the Palestinians.

The numbers are meaningful. Either

People do not understand or don’t

Care because of the indoctrination

They have received. The snowflakes

Add up and the evil people doing

Terrible things to others add up. There

Will be a day when we can stop counting

And be happy as the followers of the One.

I look through the window

And can see into the woods

They look like the fall woods

Except for the snow. They are

Bright from the sun and have

Their share of beauty. The lake

Seems frozen over. There are no

Waves and I can see no movement.

The sky is blue with white clouds

And I am thankful for this gift

From nature. In a dozen days

It will be February and then

Valentine’s Day. My late sister

Was born on this day. She was a

Year older than me. My older

Sister is gone now. She wanted

To make it to 80, but lung cancer

Took her just before she reached it.

My brother just two years younger

Than me is gone so it leaves me

And two younger brothers still

Kicking. My mom was the oldest

Of seven and outlived all of her

Siblings. I remember them all and

Miss seeing them. The world keeps

Turning.

I was wearing a blue stocking cap

When I spotted him. He was known

For being evil. I left the store I was in

Ans followed him. He turned and

Looked at me, but I had changed to

a yellow cap, and he looked away

and continued. He knocked over and

injured an old lady, took her purse and

went on. I encountered him, this time

wearing a white cap. I pushed a knife

into his heart and took the purse. I

returned it to the fallen lady. She

thanked me and complimented me

on my nice white and red cap. By

this time the police has arrived and

I walked away. It had been a good

Night for dreaming.

Waves slathering the shore

Leave the impression of as

Well as actual ice. The beauty

Is profound, shockingly bright,

Almost blinding, we squint to

Get a better observation. The

Sun has not forgotten us today.

For aa couple of weeks there

Was nothing but gray with no

Snow, but now we have snow

And freezing weather. I hope

It is doing some good for my

Garden, but that is a wait and

See matter. The mystic of nature

Leaves us in awe. We are brightened,

Bewildered, bewitched, and bothered,

But nature rolls along. Some days we

Want the sun, others rain or clouds,

And we settle on what is given to us.

Nature on the other hand has no

Feeling. It just is an today its presence

Is felt in a big way. We are thankful.

Gum cracking, lip smacking,

And spitting. All this on the

Side lines of a football game.

Anger shows, shouting at the

Officials and announcers

Second guessing play selection

And penalty calls. Bad conduct

Reinforces its propriety and

In doing so sets a bad example

For young fans. Does anyone

Spit on their living room rug

Of grope themselves waiting

For the next pitch. There are

Many fine coaches who have

Fine demeanor on the side

Lines. They seldom second guess

Calls and have a red flag if they

Wish to challenge and then accept

The result and get on with the game.

This is the behavior which is

Acceptable and the gum chewers,

Spitters, and those spewing anger

Should observe and imitate, instead

Of throwing things and acting as if

Everything is fine.

Soft, almost pink, fluffy

Clouds floated above the

Icy inland sea. They were

accompanied by blue waves

and a beautiful sky. The sun

helped warm the negative

degree cold. No penguins

could be spotted and

Antarctica must have been

Warmer. Sunshine is always

Lifting and after several days

Of gray was extremely welcome.

The ice mountains along the

Shore were not deterred.

They were laying claim and

There was no one about to

Argue the point. We are halfway

Through January an only the

Beauty makes it tolerable.
