Monday meditation
Another Monday List in hand Wondering how It got so grand If I had another 23 hours In each and every day I could do all of the things And would never have to say I’m sorry I can’t I’d love to but no There’s too many things Without enough time to show The world…

Summer dreams of winter
Memories of fallen leaves Twisting at my feet Scraps of sunshine Not strong enough to heat Unbidden the winter falls all around As the plants die, And snow covers the ground The last, faint hold The summer has on the land As the days get shorter And fall takes its own stand It holds onto…

Thunderstorms
