  • Anybody ever write?

    Greg...if you see this off the wall topic, here's something I wrote in 1985. I write quite a bit about what I'm feeling. Last time I wrote was in 2007, when my Mamma passed away.
    Trees are humming in the wind, the leaves they almost whisper.
    The sky is grey and lifeless, though it almost seems to snicker;
    at the dying life beneath it, at the presence of the winter.
    As the night time grows much nearer and the light begins to fade;
    the darkness overcomes us as if a silent parade; of tiny red tin soldiers that slowly march away.
    When winter is past and spring begins, we then begin to wonder.
    What has happened to the time; couldn't it have lasted longer?

    Nice Pam, and nice you have kept it up, even if on a limited basis. Think I'm a bit adhd, just have never been able to keep my mind focused in that kind of direction.
    You should continue, it is nice when those who can continue their art.

      Losing someone close stirs emotions within. It is a very special person who can put it into words in such a way. Thanks for sharing that Pam. Sorry about your Mamma.

        Here's another...on a lighter note:
        "Be yourself", I sometimes say.
        It doesn't seem to work that way.
        The harder you try the tougher it gets, to be who you are; then what comes next?
        The realization that over the years, you've lost who you are through the changes of gears.
        From first to second it isn't so rough.
        From second to third the going gets tough.
        By the time you reach fourth, you've about had enough!
        Now it is time for some minor repair, of that grand old jalopy that needs so much care.

              Wrote this one tonight. 
              Across the threshold of the fields; wanderers are we.
              Beginning at point A and ending at point B.
              Between the points are miles and miles of endless sights to see.
              The sky, the birds, sunrise, sunset, the sun, the moon, the trees.
              As we continue the journey, our eyes they fall to the ground. 
              Then an amazing thing happens; an artifact is found!
              We pick it up and ponder at the beauty we behold.
              The racing heart, the sweaty palms, we found our pot of gold.
