Sunday Muse - Poem, My Day

"A distant future" 

photography by Raluca Caragea 

Some Days 

Some days I wish I were tall 

For then I would feel complete 

I'd hang pictures on the wall 

Like others not a great feat 

Ordinary things like I'd do 

Marvel at pictures I find 

Seaside cottages greet you 

People feasting come to mind 

Bridges over brooks I'd walk 

Count turtles there underneath 

Toss some bread and watch them flock 

Walk up the hill sunset see 

Grab my face off the table  

Some day go when I'm able

 I won't be dead

Though I won't be dead, instead
I'll hear and see you but
But I can't relate back to you
Not one word or gesture you'll get

Disease for which they've found no cure
Someone must take good care of me
Know when I'm happy or I'm sad
Know if sick or well or hungry

Compare me to useless chicken 
Animal with utility
But not me, totally worthless   
Thank you, Goodbye all, I love you

NaPoWriMo Day 29 - Poem, The End Cometh

 tick tock tick tock ...

The clock was ticking down
Cindy Cinderella
Boys were calling  her that
Last minute ever near

Time to eat time to sleep
Time to love time to fight
What would it be this time
Drats, down a one way street

Her car ran out of gas
Rats all over the road
Very dark no street lights
Midnight came missed her date

Glass slippers and carriage
Rats to horses fine gown
Prince of Sweden rescued
Thanks fairy godfather

Old life to end, on time

NaPoWriMo Day 27, a Poem, Tea Review

Tea Time for Tea Sippers

I don't drink much tea,
its coffee for me
But have a cup with you
 whenever in the U.K.

Today I've been asked
to make a review
It'll be of tea
Bigelow assorted

That's what I buy for
the Misses and me 
I like the Earl Gray
Breakfast and the Green

Full bodied, is this you 
there's enough for two brews
(On PBS Midsommer
Murders  show I saw two crooks
make three brews from one bag)

You can buy 16 packs
for three or four dollars
64 parks, nice box
around 14 dollars

Price - a Little High
Quality - Great 
Taste - 8 for you to choose 
Rating - 9.2 

I recommend these 
for you to Buy Now

NaPoWriMo Day 26 - a Memory Rewind

Hometown Memory;
on Rewind

Can you remember
school day mornings
Before school time
how you got there

Might not be big,
Or you
got bullied bad
walked with teacher
messed your dad's truck

I'll pick the last
Farm boy drives Dad's
pickup to school
Bring back to mind

Rewind morning
(change not allowed)

Drop cousins off
Go get friend Ron
Drive back to school
Smoke on the way

Trouble starts there
Fishing for match
Road work ahead
Knocked sawhorse down

Seated for class
Principle calls
"Come to office"
Sheriff was there

Scared stuff was me

"Kid, what'cht you do?"
Big big silence
"Why'd you push stuff
Down into the hole?"

"Sawhorse and dirt"
Accident? Could-
-nt say smoking
"Dirt's on your truck"

I didn't tell
"I don't want to
see you again"
And he did not

None ever knew
Not my cousins
Not my sister
Not my parents

But now I've told

(Curtain lowered
and that's all folks)
Rewind finished

  a 1949 Ford F-1 Pickup
(MAY 2010 NAPA Calendar) 

Note: 
 - I drove my dad's 1949 Ford F-1 pickup to high school in town for my last two years, the first I rode my horse to a closer counyry school.  Two of my younger cousins rode with me to town.  
 - There were two other incidents from which we were rescued (besides three accidents where the other driver was at fault), both I was stuck and had to be pulled.  
 - Once from a snowdrift that had grown across the road, the other when I tried to U-turn out in a field but I didn't know the "frost had gone out."
