My Seahawks “12” is lighted.

I’m all ready for the game!

Their start was not auspicious,

but I’m hopeful just the same.

Kids are killing kids at school.

Just toss Dad’s gun in your back pack.

Add it to your paper and pen

and the apple in your lunch sack.

I’d like to hear a touch of rain

splashing onto the window glass.

I love the summer sunshine,

but it’s time for it to pass.

It’s time for Northwest gloom and drizzle.

We’ve enough of heat and sizzle.

I’ve grown quite tired

of this summer spark.

I’m ready for Northwest

wet and dark,

I’ll play you a Ragtime melody.

I’ll play you a lilting song.

I’ll play you happy, dancing notes

to start your day along.

May Angels guard you as you sleep –

protect you through the night.

May sunbeams dance across your bed

as you wake to tomorrow’s light.

The forecast says:

More heat and sizzle.

I’m ready for

soft rain and drizzle.

We need a little gentle

and we need a little kindness

and we need to leave the vitriol

somewhere quite far behind us.

We need a little loving

and we need a little laughter

and we need some acts of caring

to be Happy Ever After.

I wish for you a happy day

of gentle, loving thoughts,

with butterflies o‘er blooming fields

of blue forget-me-nots.
