    • The Seagulls

      The cry of seagulls
      Has me longing to return
      To the solitude

    • CONQUERING THESE STORMS

      “Everyone wants to go to heaven
      but no one wants to die.”
      **Peter Tosh

      Today is so Spring-like,
      the air, smooth with freshness,
      the grass seems greener
      stretching to reach your touch.
      And the sky, so azure
      it tastes like mountain running water.
      Today it is difficult to realize
      winter’s hold…Read More

    • Watch Your Mouth

      we weren’t allowed to curse
      so she never did it herself
      always setting the good example
      whenever we repeated words heard…
      that we were forbidden to utter…
      she’d softly remonstrate…
      “now now now…watch your mouth”
      but I learned very early
      she had an exception
      if pushed to full annoyance
      (a rare event – she…Read More

      • In our house it was the threat of having our mouths washed with soap if we cursed. And it only took one mouth washing to guarantee obedience to this rule. Very cool poem for day 7 of poetry month Willow -Curt

        • I never had my mouth washed with soap but my sister did once. I was always too afraid of getting in trouble to put a toe across any lines. Thank you, Curt

      • My cousin told me to say a word in front of my mother, and I didn’t know what it meant and I got slapped. Never said that again. haha at least not to her.

        • My mother swore all the time – redheaded temper. But she yelled at us if we did. Grandma taught by quiet example. I’m a veritable sailor mouth now, but then? Nope! 😂

    • Protest
      Protest! They say they care.
      Protest! They wouldn’t dare.
      Protest! They cut your hair.
      Protest! They strip you bare.
      Protest! They foul your air.
      Protest! Your bruises hurt.
      Protest! Your face is dirt.
      Protest! Your eyes are tired.
      Protest! Your jaw is wired.
      Protest! Your eyes are black.
      Protest! No going back!
      Protest! Y…Read More

      • Protest sometimes isn’t enough, especially not when faced with such horrors. -Curt

        • Sadly, I agree – I live in England, we’re all affected by Trump, Iran, Israel, all the cruel rhetoric on all sides, but I so hope America overthrows your President soon. Only thru a public uprising, it seems, can normality be restored in The States. HJx

      • Girl this is something. Protest to be heard but who is even listening? they keep doing the damage. This is good

        • It’s borne out of my frustration at The World, Fia. The Devil, threatening to wipe out a civilization using foul-mouthed rhetoric only makes life worse for all of us, bluffing or not. The Devils on the other side are just as bad, if not worse -putting to death 30,000 innocent protestors. Pray we all move to Peace, soon, girl. Take Good Care of…Read More

    • A STORM’S MIMIC EMOTIONS

      Why does it rain?
      When I’m sad?
      Does it feel my pain?
      When things go bad?

      ​How can it last long?
      I’m still crying
      When will it be gone?
      The outside is pouring.

      ​Where is the sun?
      To feel better
      I just wanna go out and run
      Even with this dark weather

      ​I try to smile a bit
      And when I do
      I see the r…Read More
