They met and fell in love
No one knew why
A good girl
And a sports minded guy.

The Silliest Word
What’s the silliest word you ever heard?
Could it be that you heard the word nerd?
Could it be that you heard the word bird?
Could it be that you heard the word herd?
Could it be that you heard the word curd?
Could it be that you heard the word turd?
Could it be that you heard the word gird?
Could it be that you heard the word third?
Could it be that you heard the word word?
No, that’s not the silliest word I ever heard.
The silliest word I ever heard is kerfuffle.
Now THAT is a silly word.
Faith. Hope. Love.
Faith
Believe
Totally
What is hoped for
But you cannot see
Still you believe
Zealously
It is
True
Forget It

As I sit here studying your picture,
Thoughts race through my mind.
I try to imagine what your life
Was like, when your light shined.
A Brief Note
Here’s what happened: I went to bed the other night watching “How the Grinch Stole Christmas” (Jim Carrey version). When I woke up the next morning, I posted this to my facebook status:

How I miss you – Mrs. Christmas!
To borrow the words of the Grinch –
Oh no – I’m speaking in rhyme!
The Visiting Angel
Somewhere between still awake and sweet sleep –
Before I drifted into the deep
An image came to my mind so crisp and clear –
I wondered if I were really here.
Everything
I saw him stumble into the room,
his body beaten, his eyes weary.
The crowd of men were mocking him,
I studied them, staying leery.
When the Dark Comes In
People moving to and fro, doing their work in the light, finishing the day and preparing for the next before day becomes night. When the lights go out, the dark comes in, and there is no telling what will happen then. Reality turns to fantasy. Reason becomes insane. Old monsters tucked away since childhood days, come out to play again. Continue reading
Today
Today I will:
Laugh because I need to.
Find beauty because I want to.
Say I love you because I can.
