time it goes so fast before our very eyes
gone before we know it how quickly it just flies
our children grow up fast with children of there own
they have families now how the time as flown

we  still have our memories to look back upon
of the times  we had  how quickly they moved on
its the way of life the world is made they way
tomorrows we all knew are now just yesterday
A butterfly
in rain—
it is not wet
but undone
with too much cloud
not enough
sky.

Its wings—
thin pamphlets
of joy
silk slick
as sermon pages
in a storm.

Each flap
a soaked insistence—
up
up—
but no purchase
on the wet air.

Hope—
makes poor shelter
but it wears it
anyway.
If yourself
you should judge
do be gentle
we're all fallible

never forget
the past mistake
is a lesson acquired-
there'll be a better take

as with time
you forward travel
the dark will give way
to the light--once the veil

has been lifted
it's all clarity ahead
be gentle with yourself
let no tear be shed
Destiny is a
smiling *******
riding a motorcycle
through the
neighborhood, laughing
at children playing in
yards, eaten by worms and
time.
Pink
green
white
Keliedescope confusion on all
the cat's faces.
Providence is a stealthy hunter.
