Living the Aging Life

I wrote an Ode

and I lost it in Word.

It didn’t AutoSave.

This computer strife

is the Bane of my Life.

I can’t make it Behave!

There’s a ship out in the harbor

riding quiet in the bay.

I wonder why she’s waiting

‘stead of heading on her way.

There’s a helicopter up on Mars and it is phoning home.

It must feel lonely way up there and hates to be alone.

It looks like Mother Nature’s

now expelling Man from Earth.

It looks like she’s decided

we’re more Trouble than we’re Worth.

Black clouds are hovering overhead,

promising a rainy day.

Chill winds are blowing from the West.

Pacific rain is on the way.

I start each day with Starbuck’s….

…a little Mocha in my tummy!

I LUV my morning Starbuck’s.

To me, their Mocha’s yummy!

A ship is anchored in our harbor….

tidal action…drifting slow….

It’s just paused out in the harbor…

waiting for a sign to go.

May Blessings shower you today and fill your life with laughter.

May you go forth with dancing steps to Happy Ever After.

Here’s a happy little rhyme

to lift you on your way.

May Joy and Smiles and Laughter

go with you through this day.

The night paints with a gentle hand

to darken up our skies

and softens up the troubled world

to help us close our eyes.
