Life is about
Creating shared history
With other people
Weaving a thread
Of common experience
Year after year
Until a blanket
Of mutual comfort
Wraps you
In a friendship
So close
Either person
Can at any time
Pick right up
Where last you left off
Without missing a beat

Dad With My Sister
Dads are
Special
Daughters
Know
Through
Life’s stages
Help you
Grow
You the
Apple
Of his
Eye
He your
Hero
True and
Tried
Walks down
The aisle
To let you
Go
Still in your
Heart
His love you
Hold

This is the
Era
Of being
Alone
In a
Crowd
Just me
My Selfie
And my
i-Phone/Pad/Pod
i am the cat’s meow

On blush
Of the
Rose
A
Story
Unfolds
Caress
Of a
Hand
A
Gold
Wedding
Band
Two
Cleaving
As
One
Life’s work
To be
Done
Standing
Together
Brave
Stormy
Weather
In joy
And
Sorrow
Support
To
Borrow
To have
And to
Hold
Two souls
Growing
Old
Till death
Do us
Part
Two joined
In one
Heart

Conjure
Up
Memories
Bright
Of
Images past
Ere they
Take
Flight
In your
Heart
Hold them
So
Tight
Even though
Vanished
From
Sight
Evermore
They
Still
Delight

And A Happy Valentine’s Day To All!

You can illuminate
Or
Bring clouds to
Another person’s day
The choice
Is yours to make
But having an
Impact
Is something
You
Cannot
Escape

We are not nearly as
Prominent
In the awareness of
Other people
As we might like
To believe
Yet that doesn’t
Stop us
From fretting about
How we think
We are
Being perceived
Perhaps
Seeing ourselves
Through
Our own eyes
Should come
First
After all
We are
Our
True North

WPC: Friend

Check your ego
At the door.
Prick your ears
And
Hold your tongue.
Let someone else
Take center stage.
Humility invites
Discourse
And discussion
Paves the way
For relationships
To unfold.
