    Time and relatives

    Finally Friday, Or is it Friday again? Another week has gone My question is when? Time keeps moving faster When I want it to go slow But other times it’s like molasses When I want it to go Another day of work, Of family and friends Walk through the door And somehow, time suspends I…

    Sun day beach day

    Another Sunday family fun day A long drive for a slice of fun Beach and family Rolled into one The sun was shining The air was warm Not even a cloud Dared ruin the day’s charm Kids splashed and played Having a blast together Even the adults appreciated the weather I diligently applied Sun block…

  • Nocturne

    Nocturne

  • Creation

    Abstract in motion Physics at a glance The pull of the ocean The star’s endless dance Mixed up in creation’s potion The Big Bang has its chance

  • Days end

    The roses of the night Meet the blue of the day As twilight descends And the moon comes to play The sun beds down Tucked in for the night Slumbering on Hidden from sight I contemplate my learning From another day’s toils Satisfaction unfurls While the negative recoils

  • Low pressure blues

    Low pressure blues

    Barometer rising The tension is high Pounding in the temples As I rush to stay dry The clouds roil above Life continues below I nervously await For this storm to blow I take medicine and coffee To get through the day As the sudden change in pressure Causes me dismay Once upon a time I…
