She sings of holding my hand beautifully
Bravo Stephanie,her real name
I will give up what I need to care for you
Not much I need any way
My heart is always with you
There are a very special few
There is so much more I can sbare and do
My heart is always with you
My heart is always with you

If you don't care for and about yourself what good are you to your family and loved ones
Hard lesson learned when you are a giving and loving person that puts themselves last most of the time
Looked deeper inside and made a little time for me though it isn't easy for me

Listen to them
My dad would name them as they scooped found out of the unknowing hands of people on boardwalks
Flying over the blues and waves of the beach and the shore
How much can we learn from them?
Sometimes I am envious of their lives
They touch the blues of the skies and the light
To be that Seagull flying high

Despite all good intentions
You may mean well
It is their life
Try listening with no comment or agenda
Their way of thinking
Their way of going through the motions or not
Think before you speak and hit the edit button

You can be devoted
You can be kind
You can be considerate
You can be loyal and true
Then a curve ball is thrown to upset the apple cart
Learn how to catch it
Better still throw your own and redirect it

Say what you mean
Not what others say and think
Think very carefully before you regret what comes out of your mouth
Quiet and Silence sends powerful messages very well.
There are many Hellos and Goodbyes in Life
Dreams and Fairytales come true and with that troubles
You revisit what works
You cast aside people when the friendship expiration date can't be renewed
You will know the ones to hold on to because they will always be there and vice versa
Just turn around
Be open to new friendships but learn from the past
Choose wisely before they choose you
Letting go and moving forward is not a cliche
You can't stay in neutral or in the past
Just how it is and you will find your way

Acquire,
Aspire,
Desire
Fire
If your fire goes out
Find a way to relight it
In between the heart break
Required
Retire to something you really want to accomplish that you pushed aside
Inspire yourself
and others

Not alone
Have family and friends
They are busy with their own lives especially this time of year
Thankful for being a poet and a writer
Bless December Bluebirds
Bless ducks, geese, and turkeys roaming free in the most unexpected places
Squirrels seriously overfed with bananas smeared with almond butter
Along with a variety of shelled unsalted nuts
Rain circles and raindrops
Sunny days
Walking twenty five miles a week for the ASPCA on Charity miles app
Being a loner is fine for me

Of History
Of Mystery
Of Art
Of Tradition
Of Stories
Of Legends
Of Culture
Of Music
Tell them
Share them
Talk and Discuss
Face to Face
Not online
Not on Tick Tok
Not texting
Word by word
Stories to be read,shared,passed down and remembered
Cherished
This is how lessons should be learned

Watch the rain glisten on the yellow leaves as the sun tries to come out
Even on the windiest and colder days in December her leaves are full of sunshine
Every shade of yellow but lemony and lovely
As you watch the rain circles near the ducks in the pond
The warmer days of December come back to your memories
As the cities come back to life with visitors
As Christmas, Kwanza, and Chanukah celebrations take their shape
The Beech tree kept me company and happy on a lonely December day
Reminding me of better days to come

C@rainbowchaser2023

No reason
No rhyme
May not come tomorrow
May not come today
You"re on your way
So much for you to do
Not too much to say
Alot more than trying
It's living completely not dying

@rainbowchaser2022

I caught you looking at me
This time I caught your glance and returned that stare
Eighteen and nineteen were long ago
The scar is there
You can let things go but some memories burn and destroy your spirit
See you move on with an attitude but now it is of Gratitude
He showed me the way
A life quite remarkable
You accept not expect
You don't need a lot to be a Prince Charming or to be swept up by one
All it takes is to be loved for the human being that you are
For a very long instant and daily
I treasure what I have and what I learned
He is an original and despite the hurdles we currently face
Together we can conquer it all

C@rainbowchaser 2023

You see your world flash through your mind
As you wipe the tears away in the shower so he won"t see
Watching him in pain is heart breaking
You learn how much you love someone and you battle together
Hoping this never happens again but you can never say never
It's a six letter word that turns whatever you knew inside out and upside down
Its not a been there done that situation
Dollar bills blind the cure
Three more Mondays and we bid Cancer farewell
Hoping it stays clear of family and friends
Three more Mondays
