Medal of Remembrance
The last rays of the summer sun were disappearing below the horizon as Charlie boarded the train. He couldn’t help but feel nervous as his stomach continuously turned over. Hearing the call for all aboard Charlie didn’t know when, or if, he would be back and it took all his resolve not to jump off and give his beloved wife, Maria, the big hug that he knew they both needed. He knew that what he was doing was right; for himself, for his wife and for the country in which they lived. Charlie leaned out the train window and blew Maria a goodbye kiss, silently whispering “I Love You.”

Eeny-Meeny
Jack surveyed the area. Which one would it be? The tall drink of water standing there preening himself, the good-looking girl at the other end or the wrinkled grandpa. Which indeed.
Taking aim Jack got the shot off, his ball hurtling towards its prey. Choice made.

Road Trip
Last call for luggage! Last passenger call!”
Max’s children couldn’t help but laugh. Dad did this every time they went on a trip.
Max looked around the room. Four backpacks, two children, one wife. Check, check and check. He listened to the scratches outside. There was wildlife around tonight.
“Ok troops, let’s get going. Be careful out there.”
The mouse family headed out on their nightly trip to the fridge. It was always a wonder that they came back alive

Caffeine Connection
Michael leaned over his morning paper. Flicking through the pages his eyes scanned for any sign of good news.
He was out of luck, there was none!
All he could see was bad, bad, bad. Continual trouble in the Middle East, the President putting his foot in his mouth once again, floods and disaster over the world; he couldn’t even get a glimmer of hope from stock market reports.
Pausing, Michael took a drink of his steaming coffee. Leaning back he raised his cup to the nearby percolator in silent salute. At least there was something he could rely on.

SELF POEM

Mixed Up Mind
In a cluster of emotion
Knowing not the reason why
Turmoil of anxiety
Restlessness, oppression
Feelings of anger and outrage
The urge to unload
Barging through without a thought
Get out of my road
Needing to relax, unwind
Rejuvenate, deep breathe
Count backwards from one hundred
Reevaluate
Re - communicate
All is good
I shall become myself again
Knowing not the reason why
Turmoil of anxiety
Restlessness, oppression
Feelings of anger and outrage
The urge to unload
Barging through without a thought
Get out of my road
Needing to relax, unwind
Rejuvenate, deep breathe
Count backwards from one hundred
Reevaluate
Re - communicate
All is good
I shall become myself again

Attempted Murder
He stood watching her from afar, just as he had for the last few days. He thought she was beautiful. She had a way about her, a glow that showed off her most delicate features. He could watch her forever.
He heard her call out to someone nearby and his heart skipped a beat. The sound of her voice was beautiful, a melodic tone that flew across the sky just for him.
It was time. Enough of the foolishness, time for her to notice him. For her to know that he was the guy for her.
Edging his way closer he could hear his heartbeat quicken. With a dry throat he sidled...

Separation
He looked her in the eye “I will miss you,” he said. “You have become a big part of my life.”
“I love you,” she said, shedding a tear. “Are you sure you want this?”
“Yes, it’s the best for both of us. We are different people with different ideas. I’ve been holding you back.”
“But…!”
He leaned over and kissed her cheek. He watched her drift off as the nurse approached.
“You’ll be fine. Count back from ten for me.”
“Ten..nine..eight..”.
He fell into deep sleep as the surgery team surrounded both twins. Their separation...

Let Us
Let us
Partake
In a relationship
Of delicious
Consequence
Let us
Play
With each other
Erotically
In ways
People take offense
Let us
Drink
From one another
To fulfill
That eager need
Let us
Be
Inside one another
To plant
The fertile seed
JUST LET US!!!

Life's Light
Live each day
Like it's your last one
Special moments,
Treasure them
Treat each person
Like your best friend
Take time to see the wonderment
Of a setting sun
We do not live forever
Immortal we are not
The passing by of life occurs
Like an iota of a dot
Squeeze in every second
See the light at every turn
Live life to the fullest
Before life's light doesn't burn
Like it's your last one
Special moments,
Treasure them
Treat each person
Like your best friend
Take time to see the wonderment
Of a setting sun
We do not live forever
Immortal we are not
The passing by of life occurs
Like an iota of a dot
Squeeze in every second
See the light at every turn
Live life to the fullest
Before life's light doesn't burn

Have Faith
When someone is lying
in the hospital bed
When people around him
are living in dread
When there's you, who believes
there are good times ahead
That's Faith
When you believe somebody
created mankind
When He leads you through darkness, you're stumbling blind
When you know that with Him
you will have peace of mind
That's Faith
Faith is believing in what
you cannot see
Faith is speaking to Him
down on bended knee
Faith is trust in each other,
as it should be
That's Faith
in the hospital bed
When people around him
are living in dread
When there's you, who believes
there are good times ahead
That's Faith
When you believe somebody
created mankind
When He leads you through darkness, you're stumbling blind
When you know that with Him
you will have peace of mind
That's Faith
Faith is believing in what
you cannot see
Faith is speaking to Him
down on bended knee
Faith is trust in each other,
as it should be
That's Faith
