Red Truck


It caught my eye,

I could not see

the spirit of Christmas

was all over me .

I wondered why

and kept starring long.

As I heard a song,

the song was soft

and rode in on the snow.

It followed the wind

it was then I would know.

Christmas in the night

close but out of sight

we try to understand

a Christmas of love

swept through the land .

Red truck stood still

The dog did not bark

And the snow fell

Right before dark

Eucalyptus


Magenta red

Turns her head giving life

Her pollen sprouts

Golden and shouts

A procreating strife.

Kindness


There are people

Who help you smile

Just by being in your path

And offer kindness for a while

Champions and Failures


Spring brings champions

Tulips celebrate

While the world

Looks the other way

As children March in mud

And despair…

Past and Present


The gray stone,

Hundreds of years ago,

Others will pass

And I forgotten.
