Patter

 The pitter patter of little feet

Searching to and fro

For something yummy to eat

When they are gone

How I miss them so

Without them

I wouldn’t know where to go.

 Love overflows, so gold,  like a rolling ray of sunshine. so divine kissing dew who knew how weak but so strong love can be, righting wrongs, composing songs, it’s magical.  This babe so sweet like a marshmallow treat, I’m in love.  Congrats and her I can’t wait to meet!

Car Chase

 I’ll tell you about one of the wildest PG-rating days I’ve ever seen. I used to carry in the projects in Richmond, Virginia, 23223.  It was a light day so I was out there early.  At 08:45 am, I was into my first relay when I first heard coming my way Detroit muscle revving followed by distant sirens, thinking ‘Oh, boy.  This oughta be good.’ I then saw two cop cars chasing a white Charger, and they were flying!  I kept going and caught up with Mrs. Williams, who had been living there for five decades, about an hour later.  She told me, “Them boys gonna hear it from me for waking me up.  A girl needs her beauty sleep.”  She had me cracking up.

Addict

 I am an addict

But 

Aren’t we all

From the drinks 

to the attention

We’re all bound to fall

Life is what life brings

With flowers so sweet

And days so searing

We’ll do all we can

To achieve chemicals 

So the heart sings

I struggle with drink

And chewy plant

I once thought,

‘I’ll sub drink with herb,’

But found myself 

In a ménage a trois

So seductive

So alluring

I can stop

Said every addict

Until it was too late

But knowledge glows

Only from the throes

Of pain and life aligned

So

Here we are

Just another day

In my life

When I think

There’s gotta be another way

I’ll quit 

The downers and uppers

The alcohol and the caffeine

Everything that brings joy

And everything in between 

To build a stronger life

One with wisdom

Acquired from strife

To be a better model 

For J and P.

Tomorrow begins day one.

No caffeine, no booze, no herb

Wish me luck

Those Who Were There

 Personally

I believe in ghosts.

I feel that

Everybody on this planet

We’re all surrounded by ghosts.

Those who are there

To protect us

Those who were there

To warn us

Or those who where there 

to possibly  attack us.

And all these ghosts

Have been driven

By their own decisions

While they were 

In their past lives.

But in their death

They wanna see

The mission accomplished 

So to speak

They want to see 

the end goals

Of their actions

While they were living

So they pursue

 a lifetime through

The sons and daughters

In our society.
