• Honor, Respect, Loyalty

    Honor was not just a word 

    It was inner compass

    Felt deep within

    Respect is earned

    Not demanded like a spoiled brat

    Given willing

    Loyalty is fleeting

    What once was sort out

    Is now blown away like a puff of smoke

    • Powerfully penned, Fia. An excellent musing my friend. Nothing wrong with watching old karate movies. Nicely done as always. Appreciate you, Cuz.

    • I don’t remember ever watching old karate movies. But I feel the message in this

  • Rolling Into the Back 40

    halfway to the party
    and inspiration is faltering
    slapping words into phrases
    hoping they make any sense
    breaking it into sections
    so I don’t lose momentum
    but my energy got up and went
    and I’m left scrambling and outta breath
    it’s one helluva workout…
    for a pen with rusty muscles
    drop and give me…Read More

    Learning to swim

    I dove into the ice cold pool Sunk to the bottom A memory immediately surfaced I was supposed to make bubbles Being pulled and breaking surface I looked into fearful eyes “I forgot the bubbles”

    • oh wow lovely Fia what a memory…I learned by myself when I around two I was in doughboy and I was holding the rail but the adults in the other end were drunk and making waves so I let go and swam underwater I don’t know how…you’re right the water can be scary… sorry I shared but this write brought back that memory…❤️

    • Cleverly penned, Fia. Excellent write my friend. I still can’t swim to this day, I only seem to sink.. Nicely done. Appreciate you, Cuz.

    • Wow! I was never taught to make bubbles. But I was like a fish underwater and held my breath for long periods of time. Payback is a bitch though and asthma shut that down. Maybe because I never made bubbles…
