Herby topsy-turvy
rolls down
the grassy knoll

Bowled over
One hundred
4-leaf clover’s

Smack dab
Inertia grabs
With a push
Forward whoosh
knocking
to the
ground

Little Wendy
Wiggly giggly
enamored with her
spiral jiggly Piggly tails

Both children
Feet in the air
Without a want
or a care

Laughter
Fills
The
Air

Gazing into the
Cerulean blue sky

Then they
Studied
each other’s eyes,
neither one cry
Nor asked why
They knew

This is how
they first met

A lifetime of Love
Blessings from
God above

Their tome remained
Traditionally
At home
As they roam

It became their journal
Life’s journey
Obituary
Finally
Their epitaph


No Regret
Mutual Respect
77 years
Well Spent

The hospitals,
They sold our disorder
To the pharmaceutical companies.

Places that ought to look after us,
They look at our purse,
For the drugs.

Immortality
The trees breathe
in a language
older than time.
I’ve got this massive curry leaves tree in my garden. It’s my unofficial therapist..... hehe
Yep, I share my problems with it—big, small, and downright embarrassing...
But I make sure no one’s watching. I don’t want the neighbors thinking I’ve gone nuts!!
heheheh~~

Immortality
I chase stars
not to hold them
but to feel the burn
of hope
on my hands.

The sky was never
meant to be touched
only to be
reached
even when it
feels too far.

I want make my own destiny.... simple :)
We can be strangers if you like
We can talk about the weather
Our silly plans for the weekend
Or how life has been kind to us
Trust me, I'm a terrific actor
You'll hardly be able to tell

We can be strangers if you like
Or at least we can pretend that
It doesn't shred us to pieces...
Have you ever come across friends and lovers that meant the world to you... and then had to act like they were mere acquaintances?
Never mind... hello there, stranger!

These are the passages
of eternity
A translation beyond
right versus wrong
The questions of life
bear no relief
nor answer
While the raging heart
beats on...

Inherit the burden
of forgiveness
Your belonging
has tied your hands
Join your heart
to the universe
Heed the true call
of human.
Traveler Tim

No thank you proseletyzers
I once was blind
Now I can think for myself
