Happy Birthday Rhoda...8/27/41

 

Age comes to everyone

whether they want it or not

days go into months and then

one says where did it all go

 

Past twenty five years are gone

quickly they pass from morning to night

without thinking we go our way

waiting for our sun to rise

 

Another birthday is here again

celebrate I will with joy

although alone that is Ok for

Gracie and Ginger celebrate with me

 

So, Happy Birthday to me

thanking the Lord for my long life

I talk to Him all the time

saying that I will live to 110!!!

 

To me...

Happy Birthday Rhoda

A Dark World Longs For Sunshine...

Wonderlands wander within ones mind

as one lingers in a motionless pause

dreams of peaceful contentment consumes

tries to wash away uncontrollable vibes

 

Life has changed that brings discomfort

wanders through the hours of a daily run

one takes the moments as they come

with hope brightness will cover them

 

One who is of the older lived generation

life is confused meaning where it will go

it is seen today with a dark cloud but

one hopes to lighten a moment with sunshine

 

Thoughts with a down dark meaning

brings discontent as it stays in the mind

clearing the thoughts helps for the moment

as sunshine beams come to consume us

Humidity...haiku

humidity grows

moisture consumes the dry air

heat rises full core
