IT'S A GREAT DAY!
This morning I once
again realize that
yesterday is gone
forever, tomorrow
is not a reality.
TODAY
is all I have,
a few hours on
the clock of life,
with each tick
carrying it away.
I have a
CHOICE
and therefore
choose
to count my positives
and flush my negatives.
Yes, this is a great day,
a day I've never had before,
I see the bright sunshine,
feel the crisp fresh air,
hear the singing of the
birds, the honking
of distant horns,
enjoying the taste of
freshly brewed...

Délices
Sweet kisses
Dolce vita
Strawberry wine
Chocolates galore
Culminating in
An orgy
Of délices,
Of loosening up,
Of letting go
And utter bliss.

New Year's Eve
The end of 2020 is
near waiting for
2021 hoping that
it a will be a good

get our freedom
back and make
sure that we start
the new year off
with good vibrations
To everyone out there
Happy New Year's Eve
and New Year's Day
Be Happy

Let's Tango! Trome
Let's Tango! Trome...
This dance is just a miracle!
Everything - poses, gestures, glance ...
A partner whose hands (words) are gentle -
but confidently command, lead, want ...
Passion in everything, and temptation,
And two people dance
The tango rhythm, like an obsession,
And a prayer for things to follow
The clatter of heels and a proud look,
And a step forward and a step back
Interlacing of feet and hands
Oh how passionate hearts clatter
And calesita, and corte,
and boleo, and amage!
Oh...
This dance is just a miracle!
Everything - poses, gestures, glance ...
A partner whose hands (words) are gentle -
but confidently command, lead, want ...
Passion in everything, and temptation,

The tango rhythm, like an obsession,
And a prayer for things to follow
The clatter of heels and a proud look,
And a step forward and a step back
Interlacing of feet and hands
Oh how passionate hearts clatter
And calesita, and corte,
and boleo, and amage!
Oh...

You Are All With Me In Spirit
My prayers are going out to American citizens who are bravely enduring the dire effects of Hurricane Laura
And the damages and devastation it will bring in its tumultuous wake,
My thoughts are with you all in spirit
And the damages and devastation it will bring in its tumultuous wake,
My thoughts are with you all in spirit

Bird Of Prey
I'd forgotten lately how good you look,
But it's still there in your pretty face.
Yet somehow you're crying out for love,
Crying so much sometimes it hurts.
I'd forgotten how deep your soul is too,
How deep it reaches the four corners of me.
I want to know and feel your touch,
Especially when at your unguarded best.
I like it most when you don't pretend -
Pretending to put a brave face on things.
I like the way you think things through.
Sometimes I'll give you all my love,
Love comes in waves and bursts with me.
And...
But it's still there in your pretty face.
Yet somehow you're crying out for love,
Crying so much sometimes it hurts.
I'd forgotten how deep your soul is too,
How deep it reaches the four corners of me.
I want to know and feel your touch,
Especially when at your unguarded best.
I like it most when you don't pretend -
Pretending to put a brave face on things.
I like the way you think things through.
Sometimes I'll give you all my love,
Love comes in waves and bursts with me.
And...

Appreciation
Motion ceases, train of thoughts echo still;
presently derailed.
Freight crashed, the contents parade compromised;
havoc and heaven.
With transcendent gaze my stare’s perception
befalls enchanted.
Ventured silky entrancing prisms pushing
dazzling light conquer.
Bare soles traverse Terra for closer sight;
absorbed in splendor.
Diffusion gathers; reaching aromas
give serenity.

Coddiwomple ( after Theodor [Dr] Seuss Geisel )
Oh, The Places You’ll Go!
Despite what you don’t know!
Don't worry now -
it's impossible to lose!
Hello! Hello!
It’s time to go – don’t doubt yourself!
Jump right up and step on out!
You may not know
which road to trust - but
Oh, The Places You’ll Go!
You’re Coddiwomple-confused!
Being so little so long!
But time has come to choose!
Is “Right” the greater arrow?
Or “Left” the lesser narrow?!
Oh, The Places You’ll Go!
Hello! Hello!
This is...
Despite what you don’t know!
Don't worry now -
it's impossible to lose!
Hello! Hello!

The Mantra
The mantra
When you feel that wobble, you feel the on set of your self doubt, go to your nearest mirror, stare at it and shout
Take a deep breath and say "BE STRONG, BE BEAUTIFUL AND BE YOU" believe it with a passion, believe these words are true
Believe in your self worth, see the beautiful person deep inside, let your Sun shine brightly, there is no need to hide
Yes there are others who will hurt and pull you down, push through all their bullshit, put on your Princess Crown
The reason why haters hate, is because the're just not...
