Time to Rhyme and Say Hello
I looked at my computer and saw your name at the top,
Write Out Loud, and I had to stop.
It has been a while...since last I wrote,
I thought I would stop, and blog a note.
The clocks are are all chiming,
While I do my best at rhyming.
I have not really got much to say...
So, I guess I'll be on my way.
Hello, and goodbye... I hope you all have a great day!

The Granddaughter Plays
Today as my Granddaughter plays..
I fall into the simple haze
Childhood memories of long lost Daze
Feelings I had forgotton as I grew into age
How I sometimes miss that childhood haze.
Billowing curtains and breezes gone by,
I feel the beauty of my own childhood, minds' eye
Childhood haze, really never goes bye.

VOTAW (MY Friend)
Flowers so bright, trees so green
enticing my sight as if never before seen.
Blue is the sky, that towers above
looking down on me smiling with love.
Smelling the grass cut in the Spring
free flying birds with no weight on their wings.
Remembering my friend with sweetness and song
knowing between us it can't go wrong.

Herbal Tea (For Mr. Hill)
Hill was his name and he made me think, herbal tea must be his drink.
Excellent! is what I thought, when I accepted the challenge for which I knew not.
Ran to the grocery and bought the herbal tea, drank it up and said wow-wee!
Blackcurrant and Acai berry were the flavors of which he wrote, left to me in a short note.
All flavors interesting and deliciously so, which one was better? I...

Pure
Beautiful
Delicate
Pure as white
I saw your silhouette in the trees that night
Hidden
In plain sight
Eyes that don't see what is right before them
Due to beliefs incurred before them
Blindness is your camouflage as I can only recall... A possible... Mirage.
Those who can see, the infection incurs
All the punishments that come with Words
You ...

Coffee
Carmel colors that quench my thirst
Only, for you are my morning
First, I cannot imagine waking up
For the day without your warm
Essence to show me the way
Excellence is all you portray, coffee.

I See the Path
It is dark; I am at the fork in the road
It is hard to see which way to go
The storm is closing in and the sky is dark
I cannot see there is no light
Do I go left or do I go right
Help me see the path (I pray)
A bright light, a blinding flash
At last, at last I see the path
Now I know which way to go

Such a Pretty Day
Gibberish is the word today
Glippy gloppy glue goop
Slung slang sling...just this way
To make a pretty picture
Or give me something to say
Smoky pop top
With spritzy spray
Backwards rocket pop
Looking pretty today
Jumbie jivey hicks pick
Right words to speak way
Gibberish is always...Such a pretty day
