You...
You are ruining my life
Every cup of coffee shared
It’s you I see
Every late night fantasy
Involves you
You are ruining my life
It’s your laugh I hear
It’s your invitation I want
This distraction is taking my chances
Your face replaces all others
You are ruining my life
Here at this crossroads
Of wanting more
Of needing arms around me
I try to move away from you
You are ruining my life
I snatch the phone, I dial your number
Needing the sound of your voice
To chase away the taste
Of another failed meeting
You are ruining my life
Here I am on the brink
Too afraid to confront the discontent
Coward, fool that I am
I need, I want the man who is ruining my life

Riches...
Doors opened to the breeze
Windows at half-mast
Air that is crisp and cool
Summer days just around the corner
Beds that need turning
Waiting for summer blooms
Buds an overnight explosion
As trees prepare their shade
Robins and crows make their incursions
Into a hostile war zone
Food bowl fiercely guarded
By a giant with teeth
Birds call and scream their definace
As her regal head is held high
She watches for the next attack
And growls her defiance at battles lost
I watch and smoke with ankles crossed
Drinking my coffee and smiling over the rim
These are the days to remember
Joy upon joy fills me
I am rich beyond measure
What more can this world offer
Than these quiet beauties
Than these glorious days
Windows at half-mast
Air that is crisp and cool
Summer days just around the corner
Beds that need turning
Waiting for summer blooms
Buds an overnight explosion
As trees prepare their shade
Robins and crows make their incursions
Into a hostile war zone
Food bowl fiercely guarded
By a giant with teeth
Birds call and scream their definace
As her regal head is held high
She watches for the next attack
And growls her defiance at battles lost
I watch and smoke with ankles crossed
Drinking my coffee and smiling over the rim
These are the days to remember
Joy upon joy fills me
I am rich beyond measure
What more can this world offer
Than these quiet beauties
Than these glorious days
Sleepless...
We pursue sleep, frantic
Longing to grab and hold
To wrap tight fingers in it’s hair
And pull it close
We move, we roll
Arms and legs hanging
Heads tossed, covers moved
Rearranged in our torment
Sleep eludes us, laughs
Sneering grin at our desire
Just out of reach
Wanton, callus, sadistic
Almost like lust
Our desire, our longing
To be wrapped in sleep’s embrace
And there find release
Longing to grab and hold
To wrap tight fingers in it’s hair
And pull it close
We move, we roll
Arms and legs hanging
Heads tossed, covers moved
Rearranged in our torment
Sleep eludes us, laughs
Sneering grin at our desire
Just out of reach
Wanton, callus, sadistic
Almost like lust
Our desire, our longing
To be wrapped in sleep’s embrace
And there find release
Not in Love...
I am not in love with you
Of this, I am completely sure
And yet, I compare each conversation
Each voice and laugh
And find them wanting…
I am not in love with you
Days can pass that we don’t speak
And I only think of you
In fleeting moments, idle hours
Hardly worth mentioning…
I am not in love with you
There are no butterflies
Dancing in my chest, fluttering in my belly
No great longing
To feel your body in mine
I am not in love with you
Of this I am completely sure
Yet why this feeling of relief
That you have passed by
Without touching
Without lips meeting….
Because I am not in love with you
Because it is safe
Because I am not in love with you
Never to touch you
Because I am not in love with you
Never to miss you too much
Because I am not in love with you…
Of this, I am completely sure
And yet, I compare each conversation
Each voice and laugh
And find them wanting…
I am not in love with you
Days can pass that we don’t speak
And I only think of you
In fleeting moments, idle hours
Hardly worth mentioning…
I am not in love with you
There are no butterflies
Dancing in my chest, fluttering in my belly
No great longing
To feel your body in mine
I am not in love with you
Of this I am completely sure
Yet why this feeling of relief
That you have passed by
Without touching
Without lips meeting….
Because I am not in love with you
Because it is safe
Because I am not in love with you
Never to touch you
Because I am not in love with you
Never to miss you too much
Because I am not in love with you…
Off to See the Wizard….

I look in the mirror and sometimes (not so much lately), see the girl I use to be staring back. She has a look somewhere between terror and confusion, “What the HECK happened to my face?! Where are those perky boobies I use to be so proud of?!” AND my butt has moved to my hips! And it just gets worse from there…. sigh… moan…
Mirrors should be banned from any room where I might catch a glimpse of myself naked – immediately!
Why, it was only yesterday that I was wearing tie-dye and bell bottoms! Long hair flying in the breeze. Tomorrow was years away and like Scarlet, fiddle-dee-dee, I’d worry about it tomorrow!
Hot? Heck, I can’t even stay warm….
So, here’s to all the girls and boys who find themselves staring into reality and seeing yesterday!

The White House and Other Institutions of Insanity….
I am amazed at the divisions our country is experiencing. I didn’t
vote for Obama either time he ran. I didn’t riot, I didn’t loot, I
didn’t set fires, and I didn’t destroy property because I was upset he
won…although when he was reelected I became convinced that our country
had gone insane.
The media and our leaders have destroyed the confidence we once had in our government. The very people we need to protect us, the police, are being killed because of the hate the media and our civic leaders are spreading. There is no longer any meeting of the minds or the right to think differently. We have become a country of hate filled, biased, whiners who think that everyone must be of the same opinion – or else!
Where is the country our brave men and women have fought and died for? Where is the country that thrived on diversity? Where are the morals, family values, the sense of right and wrong that us baby boomers grew up with? What happened to tolerance? What happened to work ethics? What happened to taking care of our own first? What happened to NOT supporting the countries that hate us and want to destroy us? What happened to common sense?
We have a president who has apologized to Iran, Saudi Arabia, etc., because in the past, we refused to support their policies and their obtaining nuclear weapons; which he has now agreed to. We have a president who is busy downsizing our military, letting our veterans go without the basic necessities of life in order to bring in more Syrian refugees – which we, the tax payer, are expected to support. These refugees are coming in breaking our laws, killing our people, and expecting to get everything for free – and sadly, they’re getting it – while our president and Hillary tell us that their religion is a religion of peace and that we must be more tolerant.
Our social security, which we American workers have paid into for all our working lives, is almost gone because it has been stolen by our government – and never make the mistake of thinking we will ever be repaid. And while the senate is giving themselves a nice, big raise while our SSI is getting almost nothing (I got a $2.00 per month raise), for the cost of living increases. Apparently $174,000 per year is just not enough to live on for them..
Thank the Lord that the people have spoken and said “enough”!
I have predicted for months that Obama was going to fight to keep his position – and he has already started… now calling for an investigation into Russia! I believe he will fight Trump taking office until he is forced out by the military – who have had enough of him too. I believe traitor Hillary will be right there with him in the fight. She too is a power hungry, lying, traitorous, nut job.
