Changes

It is so very late
and every day a scary date
And when I face it I get tired
It must end I cannot wait.

It just can be so
anymore. We can only go
our separate ways.
And count our lonely days.

Now I see another here
When all I praised was you my dear.
But now the other comes to me
And rises in me like the sea.

In time we will accept
the changes we now endure.
Though now it's just a concept
It's exchanges of something pure.

Goodbye my love
Farewell to comfort.
That treasure trove
Farewell to comfort.

A Poem About Louise

I’m sitting listening to the fires burn. I’m sitting in the sand hearing the sea churn.  I think I’m alone but i know He’s with me.  I think I am blind but He makes me see.  Still I’m in a pool of loneliness.  I all I can think of is your caress.  I turn inside and view my choices.  I hear the chorus of voices.  Each telling me what to do.  But like gulls overhead they  fade away when I think of you.  Then I see God’s face I know I’m in a state of grace.  No matter what may happen I know you will be there too And the harmony will also wash over you.  The fires will burn inside.  And love and God will be our guide.  Peace at last.  All is past.

He has a green body with a light grey chest marked by dark grey horizontal stripes. He has a long red tail and an orange belly. Although his wings are green there's a splash of blue under them. Here he is sitting on the top of my iPad:

Life After Trump (Part One)

[It's been a while since I last blogged. Sorry to all of you out there who follow me. But I've have had my head deep up my ass during this political season.] I supported Hillary Clint0n since before she even declared her candidacy. When Bernie Sanders decided to challenge her in the primary I was very disappointed. For one thing, he only had one message: All the money is at the top. No kidding. He had a splattering of other domestic ideas like a minimum wage hike. All good progressive ideas. But c'mon man. Did he really think that he could win the primary and even if so did he really think the American people would elect a socialist? All that came of his run is divide the Democratic electorate into so-called "left" and "center-left" camps in which young people would follow him down his rabbit hole and continue to protest up to and through the convention. What a waste of time and resources. There was a lot of talk in the media about how Sanders had ...
