Friday 3.22.19 & New Poem
Another Friday. Another morning. Decisions to be made. The property in Albany, GA has a contract on it. Wow, cannot believe how fast that happened. It just all fell in place within less than a week. HUNGER SEEKING HUNGER Beyond the window glass Just there across the green cut grass Dark blue and grey lies…

Wednesday and Two Tours in Vietnam!
Good Wednesday to you all! For me it started with being startled out of my sleep. That was because I had a rough night and needed more sleep and my wife had to wake me because I had a breakfast meeting to go to. So, I changed the time and met a buddy about an…

0400 2/28/19 Copyright and YouTube

Hey there Mr. Scarecrow Standing out behind the barn Just you and that old grey mouse that lives in your hay Thanks for listening to me the other day As I sat and let my own rain drop from my eyes to the ground Hey there Mr. Scarecrow You are so brave standing in the…

Georgia & Footprints in Time
We spent a week in Georgia on our property there. It is was nice but a bit sad. Raining in reality and in relationships. Funny how things can change. When someone is ill from drugs or alcohol and they get straight or die it is generally true that the family and those close by are…

CROSSING Crossing the deepest river without a boat Sailing the storm washed open sea in a cardboard box My brain is climbing hills that only I can see Each upward step is alive with pain granted and felt With no medication to stop the fire None exists unless alcohol laced And it is such that…
