Gray clouds playing shades of gray games
Then a small patch of light blue sky
Sun slowly coming out while skies grayer for a quick sunshower
Blue Jay flying up to a adjacent tree
While a squirrel scurried up his favorite place for a snack and snooze
Patch of blue kept returning to remind us that the rain and thunder will end.
Sunnier days will befriend us again

Tired of being awakened by what used to be
Past hasn’t always been  a friend
Still trying to learn how to put it way behind me
Hopefully moving forward
Stand tall and enlighten the world
When your mind awakens your heart and soul in the wee hours of the morning
The two steps back and one  step forward isnt a recipe for everybody
Changing the game and making a difference
Illuminate every moment
Now and forever
Play a more positive and active role for a reflective you

Plain Jane
Echoes softly
Not a princess or a Barbie wanna be
Maybe that is you not me
This Ugly Duckling became a nice swan
When a pair of  bespectacled blue eyes looks at me
How could anybody call my poet an Ugly Duckling?

Not ROYGIBIV
Deeper and more vibrant
Original and new to the eye
Not traditional but incredibly profound and lovely
Harmony and melody personified
Accepting abd gracious on our khaki coil
May your rainbows be Glorious and of your own making amd sharing
Mine tells me my Daddy is saying Hello from Heaven

When you love somebody
You sometimes put yourself on the back burner when necessary
Just needs to be that way
Then you realize you need to be number one every now and then
When You Love Somebiody you are not good for them if you are not good to yourself

Sweetness personified
Funny and charming
Those blue eyes, still send me to another solar system
You put the k kindness and the C in Caring
Extremely smart and you listen attentively.
A shoulder to cuddle and dream upon
Loving you is easy since I have been loving you for so very long
And You love me too!

Bunnies, Squirrels and Birds getting a taste of the nuts and goodies left them before the rain and snow.
Sad to think they are ignored, and people don’t stop to look at them and share their wonder.
That wonder has never left me.
So Facebook is not as entertaining, and some chats are beyond boring.
Visiting a zoo in the Winter months and any time of year is still a joy.
They are the pets I can’t have at home due to a loved one’s severe allergies
A Hypoallergenic dog came to visit and we learned the hard way that we can’t have dogs around or go to homes with them
Dog charities are my way of having a pet
All Little and Big Creatures I will always love you and visit

Thinking of how much Henry David Thoreau would have enjoyed this.
Moment of Nature on CBS returned me to Cape Cod at Sunrise.
All one had to do was enjoy the sights and sounds.
The Ocean, Seagulls, Sea Lions and the calm.
Lately Scott Miller’s videos are a weekly delight.
We have great gifts from Mother Nature that we should cherish and take good care of
In a world that is sometimes hard to believe and recognize this is a great gift.
Reminds me of teaching Walden again.

Was it you?
The marble-colored French bulldog is always happy to see me on my walks.
He comes running to me.
The pat on the head from me and the kiss from the dog for me.
Daddy, is it you?
In spirit.
I miss you and love you.
I know that you know that.

He reminded me of my visit to Walden Pond and how I tore my heel because I didn’t own hiking boots.
Since corrected.
I touched his desk in disbelief
My thoughts on the Civil Disobedience book and how I much prefer Walden
We stopped as the ducks sat on a log in the pond and waited until the Goose march ended with the geese taking flight
Thinking he is one of my muses and I am grateful
He lived long ago but never far away
Walking with Henry David
