Published Works

Pages


The years ago pages
Have been turned over
Lying face down
To the left

Another chapter
Has been written
Words and pictures
Of different times

When we were dream-filled
Life seemed endless
Possibilities limitless
Expectations realistic

We trudged on through
Work-filled days
Silent midnights
Sharing without caring

Now blank pages
Wait to be written
Of hopes and desires
Still unfilled

Published Works

Time Is


Time takes no vacation
Takes no break
Time has no friends
Has no enemies
Has no rewind button
To relive it
To fix it
To change it
Has no fast forward button
To speed past
The hurt and worry
Time’s a cheater
Time’s a liar
‘You’ll find out later’
‘Wait until you’re older’
Time’s a procession of waiting
You never really do find out
All you need to know
It’s up there in the distant future
A hairbreadth from your fingertips
You never quite reach
Time is not where
It is not who
Time is when
When is now
Time is smiling
It knows it’s won
