Lonely raindrops begin to fall-
AS I watch from the window in the hall-
Winters'cloudy look for everyone to see-
Another dull day for you and me-
I wish winter would hurry up and end-
I hate MOTHER NATURE-for she's no friend-
Please Lord let SPRING  come soon-
Today-tomorrow-this afternoon-
I need to see the sunshine real quick-
For-I'M tired of WINTER -it makes me sick
For here I sit out the window I look-
Might as well go read a book-
Hope tomorrow the sun will arise-
That would be a great surprise-

THE END-

The heat is on today-
Summer is on the way-
Temperatures on the rise-
Nothing but blue skies-
Birds are singing so sweet-
Time for a picnic-time to eat-
A ferry ride would be great-
Baseball games -I just can't wait-
Swimming -boating- picnics galore-
Walking hand in hand along the shore-
Summer seems to make things right-
A longer day-a longer night-
Fun-fun and fun galore-
Enjoy life at the shore-
Summer comes and goes so fast-
Wishing always it would last-
Enjoy SUMMER  each and every day-
Soon FALL  will come our way-
I love SUMMER  and sure you do too-
The best time for me and you-

THE END

The books I write can frighten  the reader-
After all with ****** stories I am a leader-
The blood spills wildly about-
The reader who is scared may shout-
The characters are  realistic it seems-
They will haunt you in your dreams-
So buy one of my novels today-
I'd love to hear what you have to say-
THE END

This is my 72nd xmas and I'M excited as can be-
CHRISTMAS  is very special to me-
Looking back over the years-
I remember the laughter-
I remember the tears-
When I was young I was poor-
Never had to much thats'for sure-
What does it matter theres' no reason why-
AS a poor boy at xmas I'D  sit and cry-
IF I received one gift I was glad-
IF I did not I did not get mad-
I was grateful back then I know-
I played with my one toy in the snow-
BE grateful for what you receive
ON this special XMAS EVE-
THE END

THE END

From my heart these roses I give-
IN my heart for you I live-
ON my knees I do pray-
That you have a nice VALENTINES' DAY-
The fire in my eyes begins to dance-
AS we kiss we take a chance-
THE END

SO much time has slipped away-
I am seventy two years old today-
THE years went by just so fast-
I thought my younger years would last-
MY LORD  one day you're just a lad-
Then you're old suddenly and thats' so sad-
Today is a reflection on times past-
I thought my younger days would last-
SO much fitted in a lifetime for sure-
I guess I expected a whole lot more-
Imagine a life with a second chance-
I'D be so happy I'D sing and dance-
I would change in so many ways-
I would really enjoy my days-
I'D change the world if I  can-
I'D be such a different man-
I'D paint a smile on everyones' face-
The world would be a better place-
BUT nowI'M  seventy two -it's time to rest-
For-I have taken lifes' greatest test
I was here and did it my way-
I enjoyed it all what can I  say?
GOD is now knocking on my door-
For here on earth I'M needed no more-
I did my job -my last day was sound-
Now HE'S  waiting I'MHEAVEN bound-
THE END--

I had a dream which seemed to long-
IN it with my heart I wrote a song-
MY breathing increased real fast-
Two glasses of wine did not last-
Wishing to go back where my heart belongs-
Wishing to create a lot more songs-

There she was sitting on the track-
Playing with her hair flowing down her back-
Wondering when the next train will come-
Wondering just where it came from-
Sitting there not caring-
Sitting there just staring-
Sitting there awaiting her fate-
Sitting there the train running late-
Sitting there going numb
Sitting there acting dumb-
Sitting there waiting to die-
Sitting there wondering why-
Sitting there in the morning sun-
Sitting there not having fun-
Sitting there ready to die-
Sitting there with no reason why-
Sitting there a train on its' way-
Sitting there alone what can I  say-

-

This is my 72nd CHRISTMAS  and I'M excited as can be-
Christmas is very special to me-
Looking back over the years-
I remember the laughter-I remember the tears-
When I was young I was poor-
Never had to much thats'for sure-
What does it matter there is no reason why-
AS a poor boy at xmas I'D sit and cry-
IF I received one gift I was glad-
IF I  did not I did not get mad-
I was grateful back then I know- I played with my one toy in the snow-
BE grateful for what you receive -
ON this special CHRISTMAS EVE-

Frogs were put on earth to please-
Saving them can be done with ease-
GODS' creatures are here for a reason-
They are here no doubt every season-
They serve a purpose thats' for sure-
Saving them sure can be a cure-
Frogs help balance nature's quest-
What they do they do it best-
THE END

Life when you are young is simple and fun-
WE attend school -play and run-
WE have lots of friends-
The fun just never ends-
AS the years went by things changed-
Our lives by GOD  got rearranged-
Now as I reflect on days gone by-
MY eyes shed tears as I cry-
I now await GOD to take me home-
IT'S my time to rest no longer will I roam-
I will miss the earth,the sky,
I will miss the days gone by-
NO longer can I run-
NO longer can I have fun-
MY time on earth has truly past-
MY memory for some will forever last-

THE END

Life has its moments thats' for sure-
And for some problems there is no cure-
WE all go through the motions day by day-
Resolving our problems what can I say-
WE hope for better days to come-
Solutions work but only for some-
So do your best always as time moves along-
Always do the right thing not something wrong-

LIFE-IT seems to move along quick-
TO stay young is quite a trick-
One day you are a teen-
The next day you are no where to be seen-
Now here I am at seventy two-
The same thing can happen to you-
GOD-where does the time go?
I sure don't know-
SO live every day like it's your last-
For one day all your time would have past-
WE all have a date with fate-
But with me I'D  rather wait-
SO live life day by day-
Enjoy all the things that come your way-
THE END

Mother Nature had her way-
She made it rain hard the other day-
Things that were dry-They got wet-
Damages not figured out yet-
A new place to live -Say bye to the old-
Another chapter of my life was told-
Moving around getting settled again
Trying to enjoy life again my friend-
Mother Nature caused me pain-
Hope I never see her again-
I-will make it through this mess-
What it will take is only a guess
Today will be put behind us now-
Better days will show up somehow-
I have had my fill of very high stress-
Life at times is not good I guess-
Tomorrow may be brighter some people say-
MY GOD I hope so anyway-
THE END--

CHRISTMAS is coming real quick-
Again we get a visit from SAINT NICK-
CHRISTMAS  joy is in the air-
With lots of gifts to share-
Kids and adults out shopping galore-
Buying gifts at their favorite store-
Then at home place the gifts below the tree-
SO many gifts -perhaps one for you-and one for me-
Another year will soon close out-
SO HAPPY NEW YEAR I have to shout-
THE END

BLACKY is a pretty stray cat-
WE tried to take her away from all that-
She's cute-She's smart-She tugs at your heart-
She lives outdoors all year round-
With her friends she can be found-
Winter is her only fear-
She lives outside all year-
She may have lots of friends-
But her love for us never ends-
THE END

Life at times can be great-
Good things come to those who wait-
Illness sometimes makes me mad-
I want always to be glad-
Getting old can be tough-
Day in -day out it gets rough-
New medicine to cure my ills-
Medicine to cure my chills-
OH  well perhaps things will change-
MY life now will rearrange-

THE END

Silly the cat has found a home-
NO longer will he need to roam-
HE likes his new home it seems-
HE lays around sleeps and dreams-
HE has adjusted well to our place-
Almost has a smile upon his face-
Enjoys our other cats as well-
AT least from what I can tell-
I guess he is here to stay-
WE would not have it no other way-
Now we have four cats -what can I say-
WE always have room for one more stray-
THE END

Today is a day we should all remember as well as regret-
The horror-the pain-the tragedy-the deaths not easy to forget-
WE have paid a high price for freedom some may say-
WE look back now and reflect upon that day-
WE will go on being a stronger nation some would say-
For remembering 9/11 will make us that way-
GOD  will give us the strength to stand tall-
AS we pay tribute to them all-
Those who went before us paid freedoms'price-
SO the rest of us could live in peace and live nice-
WE owe our freedom for those who have past-
For thanks to them our peace will forever last-
THE END

Getting old can be tough-
Fighting aches and pains can be rough-
Truer words were never said-
Truer words were never read-
Enjoy life from day to day-
Enjoy every minute I do say-
For life really is short and sweet-
Then it's with GOD we meet-
Death is a beginning not an end-
For with our spirits we live again-
THE END
