Once
• 07/05/24 at 12:52AM •Once upon a time,
many years ago,
Summer would have,
many a musical show.
What back then,
TV was not around,
so, any, old noise,
was made by your sound.
Once upon a time,
many years ago,
Summer would have,
many a musical show.
What back then,
TV was not around,
so, any, old noise,
was made by your sound.
They were the best of times,
filled with setbacks.
The strength, which poured through,
was beyond description.
There were times,
in the past,
which went on and on.
Much fun and a blast.
As life goes on,
and friends, pass bye,
make the best of life.
Easy if you try.
I was lost,
with a hole in my heart.
Your caring approach,
helped heal that part.
What do you do,
when you're old and grey,
and your life's partner,
has gone away.
You can sit alone,
or try as you may,
to help keep,
your sadness at bay.
As a young man,
with more fantasies
than one should,
in the Eyes of God.
Unspent joy,
lingering
beside, emotion deep
while
bridled passion,
lie inside,
locked within,
my sleep.
Awake me not,
beloved one,
for if
by chance,
would I,
take you at
a frenzied pace
and comprehend
not why.
Frustrations,
may abide, when
we guess at our
thoughts of living.
Anguish, deep within me,
tears away my soul.
Troubled and tormented thoughts,
lie heavy in my brain.
Stealing, lying, cheating, dying,
asking of my love, again,
to stay.
Dying is for other men,
it's certainly not for me.
I plan to live forever,
at least an eternity.
Those are thoughts shared by all
the children, yet to be,
unaware they can't live forever
and never will be free.
Temperatures rise,
coolness of Spring,
where we will have,
until the newness, thing.
Warm winds are blowing
over the hill,
as the hot breath of Summer
approaches.
The earth breaks and crumbles,
as seeds spring to life,
trying to smother the ground.
Spring lives eternal
as Winters dead grasses,
rich and decaying,
return to the soil
to enrich and nurture
new life.
The dog, the food,
the creek I'd wade,
were perfect then,
in the life I made.
Youthful times,
imagination yours,
alone again,
but know chores.
I wild time
in those days gone bye,
when memories fade,
like apple pie.
A major change,
no more driving for me.
It's ok,
for now, I see.
It will be best,
especially for me.
I'm a Widower.
It's who I be.
I know it's late,
but early for me.
I'm at the Drs
looking for thee.
When angels fly,
from sky's, afar,
I think about,
who you are.
You were my light,
you still are.
A beautiful beacon,
a lovely Star.
A sweet vision,
of love without strife.
You have touched,
Lolo's new life.
Through idle chatter,
with dust and grey,
as Spring hangs on.
Won't go away.
Perhaps we will,
return to norm,
after July 4th,
when the country was born.
