    Words are powerful

    but my talent is still weak

    I'm getting better.

    I think

    There's no need to think

    You prove it with each Haiku

    You are talented!

    hi all, I've been off the boards for a while. DH took some time off for vacation so besides him hogging the computer, I had to keep him on task working the honey-do list.  Hope this finds you well!

    A toast for my friend 

    Linda-n3 who, sadly, 

    Earned her wings last week.

    ~~~~~~~~~

    Music of the Spheres.

    Bonfire of the Goddesses.

    Linda, here's to you! ♥ 

    ~~~~~~~~~

    Fine old single malt

    or blended Scotch, it's all good.

    Sip and savor life.

    Oh alas alas

    Linda - n earned her new wings

    Another has passed

    Once again the world

    Has lost another bright light

    Leaving behind tears

    My meltdown was epic. Boo.

    Today is better.


    Some days you would be better off staying in bed. Lol

    Sunfire creeps downward.

    Treetops, branches, now the ground.

    Oblique morning light. ♥

    From turning sixty? ♥

    Nighttime comes early

    As autumn arrives. Crisp air,

    shedding leaves, it's fall!

    Nice, Badger and Red! 

    Here's one of my fall poems, enjoy!

    Autumn Falls

    The vista will glow

    in tones of orange and red.

    The eyes take it in,

    Until the soul is fed.

    Preparing for the days

    Of little but black and white.

    Now trying to absorb 

    Every color within sight.

    For when those days of darkness

    Begin to heavy lay,

    Go deep within, without a doubt;

    That's where the colors stay.

    Lovely Moon! Just lovely. I often wonder if, as people age, they remember the colours they used to see clearly.

    Age coming quickly

    My eyes are slowly dimming

    I miss colours most.

    Red, that's lovely! 

    Sometimes life is wild

    Sometimes life can be quiet

    Sometimes life is life!.

    Found my Magnetic Poetry Box. So here goes.

    I wander through the library

    Begin my search

    Author, book, page

    To excite and inspire my soul.

    Oh, I like that Moon!! Very nice.

    Crawling up the stairs,

    Need to leave the basement now,

    Dark thoughts go away!
