Consistency

Poem.....Consistency

Consistency
I lothe thee
Prim and proper
Always on time
Controlling our lives
Unspoken demands
I won't be there
Reschedule
Or cancel
It doesn't matter
Am I red
Or will I be purple

Anticipating change

Poem....Anticipating change

I know not why
I travel this path
Flowers of dark purple and red
Vines kissing a flowing creek
We are one
Me and the unknown
Not knowing the next minute
Anticipating change

Wave of Life

Poem.....Wave of Life

We are a wave of Life
Just passing through
Some with many years
Other only a few
Do we pass on what we know
The lessons we learned
Or is our time only a show
The wave continues on
With those who heed
With those that care
For those in need
Our destiny is naught written in a star
It is written in our passion
To push our wisdom far

Haven't a clue

Poem.....Haven't a clue

I sit on the beach watching the gulls
Why?
I get up and drive to the nearest city
Why?
I start a corporation and make lots of money
Why?
I run for mayor's office and win
Why?
I divorce and marry a wealthy widow
Why?
I now again sit on the beach watching the gulls
Why?
Haven't a clue

Better left alone

Poem...Better left alone

If I say it, will it hurt
Those words meant to help
Once released from my lips
Forever resonating in misunderstanding
That look of hurt in those eyes
Those eyes that are part of my soul
Does it really matter
That correction I intend
Maybe it should be a collage
A remainder in that beautiful personality
Better left alone for Eternity

Cup of Java

Poem......Cup of Java

Sat my coffee cup on the table
A worm hole opened and swallowed it
I reached in to save it
The room swirled
Colors streaked past my view
Stars passed by with increasing speed
A swirling galaxy ahead
With a thump I landed on a purple rock
Red plains stretched ahead
Several large moons on the horizon
I glanced over and there my coffee cup sat
Not a drop was spilled
Picked it up and took a sip
Worth it to save a cup of java

Colour Chaos

Poem....Colour Chaos

Purple merging Red
Edges not neat
Why should we care
It is in chaos
The irregular intersecting
That beauty emerges
A background of Black
Inviting a splash of Gray
To drip down across those edges
Those colour intersections
Those insights into Life
