morning camp fires glow
daybreak gray soft voices greet
good shepherd tends flock

arthritic hands search the fretboard
finding chords that hurt the least
the old guitar brings a toothless grin
then we sneak a sip of whiskey

old empty porch swing
neglected flowers dying
someone is missing

old house
spiders and bats
leaking peeling creaking
cold breath of wind frosty windows
my home

you were bad to forget
to lock the doors
so I thought I had better check
I stood by the bed
my pillow you hold
while sleeping my side of the bed
as I walked down the hall
you sat straight up
had you forgot
how the floor would creak
you stand at the top of the stairs and shake
I was always stomping down the steps
your standing there
with your mouth wide open
you would think
you had seen a ghost
I always turn the handle
then shake the door
to make sure it's tight and closed

basketball tip off at grade school game
my biggest lifetime shot at fame
got the ball and took off
heard the yells from aloft
wrong way I went but good my aim
