We can all smile while
Emotional storms blow through
Wrecking us inside.

A little deep thinking.

To believe that human activity is the single greatest threat to life on earth tends to take on a view of absolute power, something humans have engaged in for millennia and in doing so have wrongly thought themselves omniscient. If we were actually able to control and understand a thing so much greater than ourselves I might be tempted to accept Scott Lewis’ assertion that present day extinction is linked to human activity and we are therefore solely responsible for the loss of so many of the… Continue

Is this clock running?
No, really - I think it stopped.
This day is over!

I know what he likes;
When to stroke and when to pause.
Love to pet my dog.

Miss You

I don't miss you like I did before.
I thought perhaps I'd miss you more.


The space you filled is empty now,
but still, I don't miss you.


We blossomed and were beautiful indeed.
The garden was still plagued with weeds.


The beds are empty, dead, and bare,
but still, I don't miss you.


Your life goes on much the same.
I was weary of playing…

Grateful am I.......

I'm writing this in honor of my daughter, Jaime. It's National Daughter's Week. I remember the day she was born just like it was yesterday. She was the most beautiful pink little

baby girl. I knew my life would be blessed from the day she took her

first breath. I so wanted a girl. None of us as mother's can begin to

imagine how our relationship will develop. Some things need to remain

untold for…

When you're at the zoo
The funniest animals

Did you ever wonder about the people who write to I Love You I Hate You?

My spin on a one time meeting love letter.



You- Girl at Starbucks in green tank with matching eyes who ordered a Caramel Frappacino. I have noticed you there everyday at lunchtime. You must work nearby.

Me - Tall guy behind you in Eagles T-shirt who ordered the same even though I can't stand them .

I knew you were for me from the time I saw you tuck that crazy beautiful red hair behind your ear and… Continue

As I struggle to resist
New cute sexy shoes.

When my life ceases
The universe ceases, too -
In my mind, at least.

Things Are Too Damn Big



Things are too damn big.





Let’s start with banks. I’ve been ranting about them lately. Let’s beat up on them some more. They are huge.They own EVERYONE’s mortgage and many small countries. They also own several pieces of real estate in every shopping center. Everyone who complains about the size of government seems to like the size of… Continue

Creative Criticism

Creating something is hard. Creating is essentially using the power of the mind to turn nothing into something - a painting, a story, a computer program, a dance, a movie, a building – something, anything. All these beautiful things truly began as nothing more than a thought and ultimately became something through a process of hard work, mental or physical (or both), and often involving an emotional and spiritual investment of effort, too.…

Words On Fire

P1010509.jpg campfire image by olmountaingal

A good fire is stunning. I’ve been known to burn leaves just to see flames lick the sky. In my opinion, there's nothing finer than sitting around a campfire on a crisp evening, hearing conversations and laughter of family and friends. Or inside, when windows are iced, fireplace roaring, wood snapping and crackling. It warms bones and hearts…

Not a lot of fun
Watching election returns.

Injured Persons List

Hello fellow creative minds,
I need to take a break from here for a short bit due to the massive tearing of the major muscles in my left shoulder. I plan on toying with speech recognition software to write while i am unable. Wish me speedy recovery.

Political ads.

I like the wind chimes
Hanging outside my window.
They let the breeze sing.

Rose and Blackbird



Blackbird.jpg Blackbird image by impotentspider




















When winter laughs at her icy secrets,

and blows her ragged skirt,

Rose, once adorned in red velvet,

whispers, “I was a queen.”



Winter howls and her branches droop.

But blackbird arrives, festive as… Continue
