Blustery weather is headed our way-
Shutting down highways what can I say-
Shutting down small towns too-
How's the weather affecting you?
I feel old man winter is mean-
Look outdoors at the scene-
All is covered in white-
Not going out tonight-
Cold winds blowing/icecycles forming fast-
I wonder how long this storm will last-
NEW ENGLAND stands proud in white
AS the snow continues tonight-
Spring  should indeed be close by-
For I hate winter I cry-
Well make the best of today-
For theres' more snow on the way-
THE END

I awoke this morning to a blanket of white-
I guess it arrived sometime during the night-
Everything outside covered by snow-
Bad weather with no place to go-
Welcome to NEW ENGLAND  as we say-
Weatherman states more snow on the way-
So stay inside safe and sound-
While the plows outside move the snow around-
Hope SPRING  is on its' way-
I hate WINTER what else can I  say-
Shovel -shovel until your sore-
While old man winter brings us more-
IN the house hot chocolate tonight-
Makes things seem a little more bright-
Enjoy your day-
Enjoy the snow-
Take care-got to go
THE END

AS I gaze from my window at the outside world
I wonder why it's so captivating/so mysterious/so
challenging in our struggle of survival-SO weird
as if we are trespassing on this earth or perhaps only
passing by or-through this thing we called life
Perhaps life is just a perception an imaginative product
and perhaps death is indeed our door to reality-
THE END

IF a  mans' health is at its' peak of perfection-
Then he has something that is truly priceless-
IF a man is respected by his peers,friends,relatives-
then again respect from others is of great value-
IF a man is truly loved by others for who he is and not judged
on materialistic wealth then he is a true success and has truly
found the wealth of someone honestly caring for him for who he is-
IF  he lives a long life in a humanistic manner then again he has something
of great value in his approach to others -
IF he leaves a legacy with deep regards to who he was on this great planet
earth then he has left this world a wealthy man has he not?
THE END----WORDS=140

Cats are interesting and are fun-
They love attention from anyone-
They play and take naps all day-
I love watching them what can I say-
They play with their toys and love their treat-
They all gather round when it's time to eat-
I love my four cats-I must say-
For they all kind of make my day-
THE END

Several CHRISTMAS times have passed-
MY mind wonders back several years when
XMAS had a different meaning-
With the loss of my mom and dad and my stepfather
the true meaning of XMAS has gone-shattered by the
reality of life and deaths of those close to me-
XMAS leaves a void in my life never to be filled again ever-
With most of my loved ones gone there is this vast emptiness
that is eating away at me.
YES I have some family but it feels shallow as the holidays approach.
IF I  could go back in time and change things I'D put together the
pieces of the family puzzle and make XMAS a real holiday instead
of feeling down in the dumps but reality can take a bite out of your life-
and toss it away with no remorse-felt.
The only certainty is XMAS will come again and add its'reminder that
those who I love and miss the most will not be here .
I miss the opening of the presents,and the smiles and the small talk around
the XMAS tree .Maybe some day I will understand life better than I do now.
I will get through this holiday even though I will hold back my tears-I want to shed-
I pray to our LORD that he gives me his blessing to get me through-my time of need-
For mending a broken heart from family losses is not something you can put on your
XMAS wish list.
THE END

IF I could create a xmas wish list it would be what I  have written below-
I wish good health to all my family members-
I wish peace would prevail throughout the world-
I wish GOD  would make me a better person-
I wish the crippled people of the world could walk again-
I wish all the members of our armed forces would return home safely and soon.
I wish GOD  would erase all the hate in our world-
T wish all the poor have enough money to enjoy xmas
I wish GOD  would find a cure for those suffering from cancer and other diseases-
T wish my own health would improve-for good health is the greatest gift of all-
I wish all countries would become friends with the U.S.A.
Most of all I wish peace with our LORD to those who have died before us-
GOD  bless everyone and may next year be our best one yet-
