Spring Gardens
Current mood:  determined
Category: Writing and Poetry
I know it's time
I see it's time to till the earth
the cold withdrawals
to mark rebirth
While the age old simple tool
calls out to me with garden rule
Turn over here, these fertile lands
they needs your sweat and toiling hands
The winter greys are moving on
lets sow the seeds as this spring dawns
let summer colors sing their songs

Kiss me Sweet Valentine
Current mood: amused
Category: Writing and Poetry
If You Wanna Be Happy
Jimmy Soul
If you wanna be happy
For the rest of your life,
Never make a pretty woman your wife,
So from my personal point of view,
Get an ugly girl to marry you.
A pretty woman makes her husband look small
And very often causes his downfall.
As soon as he marries her
Then she starts to do
The things that will break his heart.
But if you make an ugly woman your wife,
You'll be happy for the rest of your life,
An ugly woman cooks her meals on time,
She'll always give you peace of mind.
Don't let your friends say
You have no taste,
Go ahead and marry anyway,
Though her face is ugly,
Her eyes don't match,
Take it from me she's a better catch.
Say man.
Hey baby.
Saw your wife the other day. Yeah?
Yeah, she's ugly.
Yeah, she's ugly but she sure can cook.
Yeah?. Okay.

Feeding Studly
Current mood: amused
Category: Writing and Poetry
Studly
Studly's what I call him
my big red Card da nell
there's three hens out there with him
'cause he's handsome as hell
He sang to my electric speakers
early in the spring
thinkin they were his same creatures
quite loudly he did sing
Well, that puffed up his big red chest
high in the tree above the rest
then hens flew in to build small nests
and to preen their crimson crests
hoping they would just be blessed
to stand guard from that cow bird pest
and hatch out their own small red breasts
who'll pass the word that Studly's best
as they sing for their hens nest
Then when summer moves along
they'll be less insects I will scorn
while Studly's fame spreads cross the lawns
the magic of the cardinals sound
will add a few more smiles in town
Perhaps a little child so sad
might not think things are so bad
if one dark day within their heart
that Studly song could set a spark
and put a smile upon the face
that sees the world a better place
So I spread the feed in snow
and hope that Studly's fame will grow
and pray a child that has felt wronged
will find some strength within the song

christmas visit
Current mood:  grateful
Category: Writing and Poetry
The Thankful Visit
My Christmas Tree I share
with those who once were there
no longer can they come see me
so I leave pieces of my tree
We are but bits of those we met
a sponge I am with no regrets
I took the memories with me
and show that when I place the tree

Mixing the feeds
Current mood:  blessed
Category: Writing and Poetry
Early Morning Drift
Chilled to the bone from the early morning cold north wind
I blow into my cupped hands for warmth
rolling my hands together for the friction
I stare out at the small animals I've fed
filling a small need they have for survival
I feel rewarded and my thoughts drift off to you
Your wonderful spirit that comes to such brilliance
with the teasing touch of our contact.
Listening to the birds coo
your sounds when pleased come to mind
Your playful nature sings
from the action of the birdbath
My humble offerings have added fuel to both
That cold biting north wind
becomes manageable for the flight
The tender attention
and loving whispers
help the flight of my western chickadee

Changing times
Current mood:  enlightened
Category: Writing and Poetry
Vanishings
Dreaming traditions
wanting my own
Tried hard to set up
when building my home
Not quite accepted
thought more a rhyme
Not a single one lasted
all faded in time
Invite someone over
different and down
only to question them
right out of town
Christmas Eve night
decorations appeal
lost with director idea
for the zeal
The Christmas tree farm
once was tagged and fine cut
now is just pick up
along with the rush
Who is not working
when others attend
just woke me up finally
traditional end

Broken Lives in the middle of nowhere
Current mood:  cold
Category: Writing and Poetry
Fallen Dreams
The broken home
within the wood
built on dreams
that never could
Shows me that
not every dream
can work out
it's intended scheme
I stop and wonder
who lived there
and why I feel
so much despair
