The
frightening turmoil
sails
across my cable screen
An accident
of birth
saved me from
being
in that anxious
horde
I muse on
such thoughts
while they
struggle to flee
from the zealous
Taliban
with their
beards, weapons
and
punishing whips
The
crucible of our culture
will test
those who fled
from that
perilous country
to a nation
where women
can pursue
their dreams

suggestion: try my novel, THE
TRUCKERS, on Kindle
Blessed with zest
upon awakening
Jumping out of bed,
ready to begin
another happy day
Verve
is the sparkle
making living a joy
No need to search
for the meaning of life
when you have it
Aware you are happy
What more can you
want from your life
No need to strive
for nirvana

The reasons
why:
The Irish
from hunger
The
Italians from poverty
The Jews
from persecution
The Latinos
from hunger,
poverty and
persecution
A suggestion try my novel, BEN
CONNOLLY in the PARIS COMMUNE, on Kindle
Moments
of pure pleasure
that
really thrill our lives
are
ephemeral treasure
never
to be forgotten
Some
are planned
some
are not
the
sensation may be grand
or
at the very least nice
The wedding was great
The best
way to mate
The lovely
children came
The results
of the game
Make us
breakfast
And dinner
too
Pack the
lunches
Don’t feel
blue
Go ride the
second wave
To virtual freedom
As long as
you don’t drown
Me inadvertently

JYNX, on Kindle
The Robin splashes
The water flies everywhere
A birdbath fulfilled
A

ABSCONDER, on Kindle
