2020-07-04 Cheers to New Poetry and Spending Quality Time this 4th of July 🌟
I’m leading with the poem I wrote yesterday instead of including it as an afterthought at the end. The tag line? “Look Ma, it’s a Love Poem!!” Driving Toward Sunset on July 2nd Yesterday was a pretty good day. I had two good virtual catch up sessions with friends, I attended a poetry workshop where…

2020-02-14 Kauai Day 4 – Aloha from Our Lanai in Hawaii 🌴
My preference, of course, would be to write a little every day. I like to record the memorable moments and some of the great experiences I’m having. However, I’ve opted not to sacrifice any time thus far, doing things and seeing things for sitting down to write. It’s a good choice I think and hopefully…

2019-11-22 A Love Letter for Today
A Love Letter for Today My words are a love letter. To love is a verb which doesn’t always mean the same thing as it did the day before. The bible says that it is patient and kind but i find more often than not, it can also be lonely and wanting and hopeful…

2018-04-25 I’d Rather be Lost In Lost In Space
I used to go to the gym in the evenings all the time. Its 8:15Pm now and I can’t help but feel I’d rather be anywhere else but here. I’m also not feeling very inspired by anything either. Damn. I just wanna go hang out with JS and talk and watch a tv show or…

2018-02-22 No Apologies, No Regrets
Why does it take so long in our lives to get to the point where we care less about what everyone else thinks and more about what we think? I look at my teenage daughter and can feel her persona covered in things she has picked up from caring about what other people think. It’s…

2018-02-14 The Gift Of Time
This poser holiday is even dumber than Groundhog Day. Can I get an Amen from all my fellow V-day haters? Yet.. it’s a thing I can’t help but think I would be totally excited about if I was in a romantic relationship. /sigh What do we do? We kill a bunch of flowers. We boost…
