Says his team has to play hard.

An old worn out title. The Road Less Traveled. New Lyric.

'The Road Less Traveled'

copyright 2010 by Rick Reiley



The road less traveled

Is often a path

No highway signs

No charts of graphs

Sometimes it's with others…

Just-sharpened pencils,
A new notebook with paper;
Smells like fresh knowledge.

Traveling by train,
Click-clacking across the land
You see a lot more.

'Daddy Joy'

copyright 2010 by Rick Reiley



Papa ate the Easter bunny

And shot the one eyed cat

He told the truth about Santa Claus

Saw nothing wrong with that…

What Lyrics Speaks to Me? Good question.



Did you ever wonder why music touches everyone? I have. No matter how

young, old, or the culture it touches something very primitive in all

of us. Music has the power to make one laugh or cry or come together.

Music is magic. Don't believe me? Just watch a crowd at a concert no

matter the genre. Watch concert goers sing every verse to a ballad or

get swept away deep into a concerto. Watch a teen bop to a booming base

in a car or brood in the bedroom to the… Continue

I need more dream time.
My pillow misses my head.
Is it bedtime yet?

Wiffledust Creative Writing Challenge #11 - What one lyric speaks to you when nothing else can, and why?



This lyric is a gentle reminder to me that it's ok to be human.



----------



"Sometimes, even music cannot substitute for tears"
- Paul Simon, The Cool, Cool River, Rhythm of the Saints.





The power of music is strong. It's a fact. It's not always clear how or why these sounds affect us so much, but they do. People associate times and… Continue

My Estranged HUSBAND

Yes, I am married to a very strange man. We have not lived together for 2 years. He chooses to live a very different lifestyle. My beloved is truly a gypsy. Even today he is living in a home where he has bought time. In approximately 2 weeks he will be on the street again with 5 dogs and 4 cats. Currently he is living there with no electricity or water. Althought he tells me I'm the one living wrong and working for the MAN! at least I am now living in comfort unlike himself. I love this man and… Continue

Does the air look green?
Suddenly my eyes water.

One of my favorites...

Small in stature he is a charming ball of energy with the biggest brown eyes you have ever seen.
The eyelashes on those brown eyes are amazingly long. If it were not for such charm and pure talent he probably would not be where he is today. I am sure he is very thankful that he is.

Just things in a box;
Stuff forgotten until now.
Reclaimed memories.

Wiffledust Creative Writing Challenge: Sleep Is...

Sleep is...



all mine. It's when I stop. Breathe.

Say no to the bad and yes to the good.

What I say goes.



Sleep is when I feel the comfort of the duvet on my bare skin

as the comfort of the universe

scooping me into a maternal hug.



It's when the slowed rhythm of my slumber

synchronizes with the innate purr of my furry friends.



It's when I lay open with my love and he with me,

aligning our forces to face the coming day.



Sleep is… Continue

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…

No one really fits.
People have curves, boxes don't.
Don't force me in one.

My brain is tired.
It has decided to quit.
No haiku tonight.

My beauty is green.
Beauty is rarely painless.
