Road rash and ice packs.
No straight muscle speed for weeks.
Damn, this really sucks!

Before I begin, let me say I’ve missed you guys! Wait, I’ve missed y’all. That sounds right.



Now that summer is here, I hope you’re able to kick back,splash in a river, listen to some music, or just read a good book.



Speaking of books, I did manage to finish that second… Continue

SNAFU

Something is missing.


Although I hear it is right,


It feels very wrong.

Affliction

As I lay in the darkness of another man’s bed, thoughts of you invade every fiber of my being. I try to push you away but don’t have the strength. I attempt to pull you closer but you escape my desperate pulls.

Seeing you was both thrilling and excruciating. Betrayal and love catches in my

throat and refuses to abscond. The dark, skeletal hands of memories grab

endlessly at me as our soundtrack of passion and bitter disappointment…

The weekend



Like a distant memory

It was brief, but fun



My son and I went to a wedding on Friday, it was beautiful. God was smiling down on us, for the rain stopped in time for the decorations to be set up and it stayed dry for the ceremony. :) The reception was busy, busy, busy and I enjoyed every moment of it. The drive home was long and the car ride scared me because the car…

A Muggy Night, A Sister, and a Guy Named James Taylor





It’s a steamy night in Eastern Pennsylvania where I grew up and still call home. I just turned on the TV, and immediately a piece of pure joy popped up. James Taylor and Carole King are singing Sweet Baby James together. It put me in mind of another hot and steamy night many years ago when my sister and I actually went somewhere together.



This sister is about a decade older than I am, so we didn’t officially grow up together. We… Continue

True love will not fade,
Forever staining a heart,
Oftentimes tie-dyed.

Did You Ever See A Minnow? copyright 2010 by Rick Reiley

Did you ever see a minnow

Skate across a pond?

Wearing an overcoat and hat

With his mittens on?



Did you ever see a minnow

Roast weenies on the fire?

Or…

Secure in my whole
I hide from chaos and noise
Your variance brings.

Sweet Summer Raindrops



On my nose and toes they are

Oh how they tickle



I don't know, that just came to mind...all this talk of rain and then today it did rain and I was soaked while bringing in the groceries today. But, after the humid days we've had so far; the rain felt nice. So here's my little haiku.…

Wet cool and windy.
A summer evening rainstorm.
Thunder is alive!

That was a surprise!
Now I cannot forget you
And that thing you do.
