October Fog
The fog crept in and stole the night.
It changed the world to blank-ish white.
There’s nothing in the world to see.
But window-glass. The fog. And me.
Life
We all are given lives to lead.
No one knows how to do it.
We don’t work from a master plan.
We all just muddle through it.
Uvalde, Texas
The Uvalde children haunt me.
Under Texas skies above,
they remind us to be caring.
They remind us all to love.
My Neighbor’s House
My neighbor’s house is silent.
No one comes and
no one goes.
No one checks out
its condition.
Doors don’t open.
Doors don’t close.
One day’s very like another —
just depends upon the rain.
The house sits on in silence.
Doesn’t grumble.
Or complain.
It waits.
September Rain
I snuggle in my comfy chair
and listen to the rain.
The raindrops tumble
through the air and
hit the windowpane.
The fat drops trickle
down the glass
to fall on earth below.
The parched dirt
soaks up welcome rain
and promises to grow.
September rain.

Four-letter Words
I like to use four-letter words
when I am in despair.
It helps direct my feelings
when the acts of men aren’t fair.
The words are strong, direct, and clear.
I’m willing now to share.
My favorite four-letters words are:
Hope. Love. Care.
Uvalde, Texas
The Uvalde children haunt me.
They are often on my mind.
They remind us to be loving.
They remind us to be kind.
Fortune Cookie
You rise on the right side of your bed.
Your morning’s full of laughter.
Your checkbook comes out well ahead –
it’s fun and games thereafter!
