Laughter
The other day I made my son read a tricky tongue twister of a poem
And he laughed like he hadn’t laughed in such a long time
He struggled and spat and tried and spat some more all over the phone
It was a verse full of elaborate alliteration and constant rhyme
In the mornings my wife and I have interesting conversations
I wake her up with quips and gags saying things that are kind of…improper
I even make myself the butt of the joke and walk into them
As she laughs I’m left I wondering why I’m not such a panty dropper
Everyday I send...

Yule
It is yester evening
a promise is given
earth is lifted
sun tilts solstice eyed
I virago
daughter of Spica and Vesta
my sable fur whirls
damp from my quill
in swan necked light
awoken from the belly of Draco
where I witnessed these worlds again
held by my ancestors
as a soul I chose
this gift of life
beholden to this chalice
please drink from it
sip, dance, sing
while you may

Robin's Song
Quaint dawn robin's song.
The wrong in the heart lingers.
Tune of bliss uplifts.
The wrong in the heart lingers.
Tune of bliss uplifts.

Lets Fight Together
Never let the darkness consume your light,
hold on to the whispers of hope,
embrace the strength within your soul
for you are needed, loved... cherished.
Never believe the lies of despair,
your existence is a beacon,
a guiding star in the night
shining brighter than you know.
Never forget the battles you've won,
each step forward is a victory,
your journey is a testament
to the resilience of your spirit.
Never surrender to the shadows,
for within you lies a fire,
a flame that will burn eternally...

Sun Goddess
Grey, it's a poor man's blue
It's my eyes, without you.
~
A window pane, revealing
through the frost of the glass
A light unknown; be known
A sun, unsurpassed
Winter held and winter chilled
as my eyes bled away all vision
But a ray of light, now in sight
touched within my prison
She laid her flower down to ground
with the moisture of my kiss
And this said sun, known but to one;
I blessed it with my tenderness
Her softest light, a touch of gold
to value all that she may handle ...
It's my eyes, without you.

No housework done
820 steps
11:00 AM
Wasted morning (except for reading Sedaris)
Up since 4:30 AM
Throat brutally sore
Really needed sleep
Horrible dream: my 89-year-old mom standing alone with a suitcase
forlornly asking
"Where am I going?"
106 degrees
Not even noon
Air quality alert
Just like every day this summer
Crying off and on
Mostly on
Have to do something
Excuses to not go to the basketball court: ...

Opportunity
Take it.
It's a break.
Stress relieving.
You're never late.
Open minded.
Never fake.
The lonely winner.
Unstable state.
First to finish.
Piece of cake.
Thoughts diminish.
Erratic trait.
Needless glory.
Uplifting fate.

In Flight
A typical day
foggy gray
tuned out numbly
seat 14A
A song in my ears
(that one about Smiling)
Cranked up to drown
the sound of liftoff
Up we went
through sombre clouds
To
blue
clarity
And suddenly
I was crying...
I had forgotten
I could expect that.

B-Day Light
Outcast B-Day here
Full of Joy and Bliss
Happiness is upon us
Loner is gone
Away from my life
Happy as I can be
Light has shine upon me
I am going to:
Let it Shine!
Full of Joy and Bliss
Happiness is upon us
Loner is gone
Away from my life
Happy as I can be
Light has shine upon me
I am going to:
Let it Shine!

Student Teacher Poem
Sorry madam, I can’t you follow
Don’t move son, I’ll come to your row.
I can’t understand a word from your mouth
Next time I’ll bring my PC and a mouse.
English makes me look stupid and ill at ease
Well then, I’ll teach you English in Chinese.
Teacher, teacher I have lost my book
Never, ever instead use your face book.
Blessed having connexion in our classroom
A pity! for your smart phone you have no room.
Studies, homework and revision yet, not ready for the exam
Sacrifice...
