Bold to Assume I like Fireworks
The fireworks are epic,
and the lights are bright at night
The pops are all around us
The colors such a sight.
As they rise above the buildings
and expand in dots of gold
yes the fireworks are awesome -
Independent
I do not know what this all means –
Independence Day right now –
when redefining freedom
was different then than now,
how mindsets have since shifted
but some brains have stayed behind,
reshaping laws, procedures, -
Four AM
Sitting on my bed at night
Wishing for a star.
Come wave hello for my delight,
Night owls we are.
Come take my hand and lead me through the universe at large.

Grandparent story time- A 2020 version

with the iphone 66 and all,
how your grand-kids will look up at you
and ask about this all.

Blackout
One black square on one webpage
Another pops up too,
A third is seen if you scroll down

and you go times faster
And I'm not doing easy stuff!

I want the breeze to echo your name
As it floats along the wind -

You said forever.

It left a sweet taste in my mouth.
Like sugar poured onto a lemon,
Covering up the sour bitterness. -
Parallel to the Sky
Slender limbs fan out,
Parallel to the sky
Instead of reaching,
Wanting to be the open blue,
Accepting that

Keeping Up
The world has evolved
From eternities of small change
To rapid movements
Clement days
Then
Brisk winds
Blowing ideas, seasons into the next
One moment, solidarity
Dissent, unity

One Word Story
Dreams.

The boy in the shadows
Day and night he awaits his moment,
never applauded, never appreciated,
never in the spotlight.
He longs for a time
when he is recognized for his mind,
