Our lives move forward

Ever accelerating;

Suddenly stopping.

Two weeks

I just realized that with the posting of tonight's haiku, I now have only 2 weeks left to go with this project. I'd just like to admit now that it's been harder than I thought to write over 350 haikus. But it's also been very easy because at times they have almost written themselves.  Anyway, I'd appreciate it if you would stick around and see this thing through to the end with me.  Thanks.

Me being profoundly profound :)

On my way to work, my mind was on the go, go, go! I'm a person thatbelieves in signs, if you will. Sometimes, these signs are shown to meon actual signs. I spend a lot of time reading, even when driving; I'mreading the signs/billboards along the way and then playing letter/wordgames, it keeps my mind occupied....especially because I haven't had aworking radio in my car for years now lol. I digress, so anyway...Idon't see hidden messages on every sign I read, if I did...my mindwould explode…

Every Heart Has A Song



There's a song within all of us

Many try to quiet the tune

Keeping it to themselves

And others let it be heard by anyone willing to listen

Proclaiming who they are and how they feel

 

When people let their songs be played together

It can create a symphony

Melodies and harmonies working together

To create the…

Where Do I Belong?



Thoughts spill from my mind

But my mind is still overflowing

There's no room inside my head

I'm trying to sort things out

Just trying to make sense of it all

 

I look to the left

I look to the right

I can't tell which direction I'm supposed to go

I thought I knew where my life was headed

And then…

Geese fly overhead,

Their V pointed to the south.

Don't stand underneath.

possibilities

in the fullness of the memory

it seems that I was disappointed

yet again

unflinching

 

and yet I swelled with pride

unbidden come to rest upon my bosom

and finding peace

did dance

without much glitter

though in peace

 

and so does a goal astound

I want that which is denied me

I am not he who waits

though so I must become

before my truths are revealed

to…

When did this happen?
It was not here yesterday.
The cold just showed up.

While I have this sad country twang mood going on I might as well throw this out there.

unfinished

There are certain things you wait for patiently

and certain others for which

Right Now!

is all that will do

I mean, you know how much you like your coffee?

in the morning evening even afternoon

and when you're out it's over!

the whole world is going to hell in a bucket

and you are most assuredly

NOT enjoying the ride

 

There are certain things you don't mind needing

and certain of…

Strange days, stranger nights.
Giant bats carry off cows -

'This House Will Stand' - new gospelish lyric......

'This House Will Stand'

copyright 2010 by Rick Reiley





This house will stand

In the heat of summer

In winter winds

It will not move

It will not be broken

It will not be shifted

It will not be bent

It will stand true



This house will stand

As a midnight beacon

As a welcome light

To one and all

It will not flicker

It will not dim

It will survive

Mankind's fall





(Chorus)

In… Continue

Find what I am looking for?

Creative Writing Challenge #11 - Lyric me

This is a really hard challenge for me because music is so much a part of my every day and no one song or lyric fits me two days running. I use music to change my mood when things are too heavy or to bring on the tears when I'm in pain and can't cry. I've been caught dancing through my house, the grocery, and just about anywhere else, even when there's no music playing. I keep it all in my head!!



My music for winter is nothing like my summer music. And, like Christmas music, there are… Continue

Their old familiar carols play,

And wild and sweet the words…
