They’re messing with our time again,

a process I bemoan.

The time was working well for me.

Why can’t they leave it alone?

An “atmospheric river of rain”

is pouring from the sky –

erasing ling’ring mem’ries of

a summer that was hot and dry.

May peace be with you through this day.

May truth and honor guide you.

May wisdom mark the words you say.

May courage walk beside you.

My eggplant’s getting moldy.

It gets mushier ev’ry day.

I never plan to cook it.

It cost too much to throw away.

It’s voting time.

And, I’m proud to say

I’ve done my part

for the USA!

Halloween is a friendly scene.

It’s an eve of fun and laughter.

It’s a whiff of joy

for each girl and boy

who collect the loot they’re after.

The moon and Jupiter hang around

like playmates in the sky –

casting gold light upon the land

as the earth spins silent by.

Choice by Choice

Choice by choice we

choose the steps

that say who we will be.

Choice by choice we

etch the path

that marks our destiny.

May peace surround you through this night.

May comfort cup your head.

May you slip in to gentle rest

and sleep sweet in your bed.

Today’s a day for leprechauns and blue forget-me-nots.

A day for colored rainbows and for flowers in their pots.

Today’s a day for giving thanks for all the ones we love.

And a day for breathing deep the air that fills us from above.

Today’s a day for sending love  to those we wish we knew.

Today’s a day of sharing and I share my love with you.
