Old hearts long enter twined
relax and share their evening wine
laugh and reminisce about younger days.
Kids all grown, well on their way,

Suddenly the lights go out
as if nobody's home in this mind
rendered blank as a Vegas chip.
Another perfectly good idea vanishes

Sunken hopes and
Broken dreams
Lie at the bottom of
Of a dark sea
...
Some things are kept forever
cherished and tucked away in the attic of memory
protected as dearest heirlooms from spoilage of time.
Fireflies on a hot summer's eve
...
With tiny little hands,
barely able to grab ‘round the knob,
she stretches and tippy toes with all her height;
finally succeeding in opening the door
...

O nly those sheeple who follow blindly
N ecessitate great introspection, cruel judgement.
E veryone is on equal ground.
...
It was a crisp, bright sunny day;
The neighborhood was alive
With children’s laughter.
Signs of springtime were everywhere;
