Namaste

Kissed by golden sun

midst morning salutations

I bow to your soul

Endurance

First social distance

then everyone wear face masks

now cover your eyes

On edge

An edge of sharpness

in an otherwise blurry world

trying to make sense

out of nothing but nonsense

but no one tells the truth

Lager

Lager was a good dog

he's now on the rainbow bridge

Lager was a GOOD DOG

Shadows

Deep in the shadows

a ray of light gives us hope

look out for the thorns

Red white and blue

Red white and blue

colors of a once proud flag

what the hell happened

nothing but new winds of change

and a not so peaceful transfer of power

Up against the wall

Against a brick wall

with no way around or through

time for something new

After the storm

In the dark of night

thunder boomed and lightning flashed

next morn flowers bloomed

Morning sun

Early morning sun

warms stucco, awakens flowers

time to rise and shine

Summer heat

A summer heat wave

sends the temperatures soaring

while slowing life's pace

Achoo

A high pollen count

is making me sneeze a lot

while bees stay busy

Next generation

Next generation

they're our only legacy

protect them with love

Mystery and health

Mystery and health

hidden within a flower

what do the bees know

Unwavering faith

Turn your face sunward

and bask in her loving warmth

better days ahead

Things that matter

What really matters

Take what you need, leave what you can

American life

Pigeonholed

Feeling neglected

stuck in the same daily box

leave your comfort zone

Strength and healing

A swirl of color

in perpetual motion

can it cure the flu

Innocence

Waiting patiently

while passion takes the forefront

innocence abides

Sunkissed

Caught in a sunbeam

on a warm summer morn

lay back and feel the warmth

Whimsical

Whimsical puff ball

conjuror of psychic power

make a wish and blow

Candlelight

A flicker of hope

in an otherwise bleak world

shine some light today

a candle is the darkness

is better than no light at all

Searching

Searching for answers

by looking to the heavens

it's worked for ages

there's no reason to stop now

just because the answers come slowly

Patriotic tunes

as the sun sets on 4 July 2020

Glory Hallelujah

I cry for the country

I proudly served

Iridescent clouds

Iridescent clouds

rift across an azure sky

looking for angels

spreading hope for the future

pause and enjoy the moment

Friends

Feeling good together

filled with positive energy

both soothing and peaceful

what friendship is meant to be

The challenge

Staying positive

in a new negative world

takes a lot of work

whatever you do don't quit

when you quit it's all over
