I think that many people today are aware of the comfort that food can provide. I just want to add my piece. This past Easter Sunday, I made myself a dinner of roast pork shoulder with onions, green bean casserole, corn, cranberry sauce, and stuffing/dressing. I should probably explain that this massive meal is just … Continue reading Food as Comfort
Poem: Access to a Show
Access to a show can mean many things, It can be nothing to some, And a piece of culture to others, With big cats and larger than life people. It can attract and possibly polarize. For those who lack the access, It is a source of confusion. What amuses them so, What forces draw them … Continue reading Poem: Access to a Show
Poem: Waiting on a Shelf
Time stands still, In a manner reminiscent of the past, Pausing and waiting, For actions to occur. Life holds its breath. For now its alright, Eventually it will need to breathe. The world says hang on. How much shelf do you have, Waiting for rescue or resume? Eventually the music will play again. How many … Continue reading Poem: Waiting on a Shelf
Substitution into Creation
At some point substitution becomes creation. This past week, I was craving a creamy, spicy pasta. Now I originally wanted shrimp pasta but I didn't have any shrimp and I didn't think that I would find some in the grocery store. I will be honest, I didn't really want to visit the grocery store. So … Continue reading Substitution into Creation
Poem: Enjoy the Rise and Fall of the Bow
Dancers, we see, Connected all are we, Singing through the streets and screens. Let us applaud the heroes, Walking through our lives. Money may be tight, Don't let your heart grow the same. Tip your hat and say grace. We'll make our way through. The light will come again. Dance within your walls, Pick up … Continue reading Poem: Enjoy the Rise and Fall of the Bow

I apologize. It has been easier for me recently to write poetry than a full blog post … Continue reading Quick Note Regarding my Posts
Poem: To speak and think
To speak and think, To walk and stand. Go and pause. Process the world before you, Forward and aft. Questions to guide, Answers to filter out. Society of flags changing, And planting anew. Thus allowing statements of perspective, Valued by verbal discourse, And entertained by thoughts. Let your mind wander through. Disassemble and construct once … Continue reading Poem: To speak and think
Poem: Touching the Pillow Petals
Dancer walks to take it slow, Touching the pillow petals, Brushing the finger tips. The wind whispers by, Quietly greets and departs, To go on its swift way. As it leaves, it grants a gift, Of scent playing with your nose. The smell changes pattern and presence, With the origin of the breeze. Avian chatter … Continue reading Poem: Touching the Pillow Petals
Poem: Ornaments of Existence
A trail from person to person, Connections of creators. Step into another land, country, place, and mindset. Inspire to greater heights, And to keep from falling lows. Grasp a piece of a life and time not your own. Explore their view, And bring back a souvenir, Of thought or inspiration. Use these trinkets to decorate … Continue reading Poem: Ornaments of Existence
Remember the Ingredients
So, I tend to do my grocery shopping on Friday night or Saturday morning. I buy the ingredients I need for the coming week. Well, usually I buy the ingredients for the coming week. Except sometimes I forget to buy something by not remembering to put it on my shopping list. I use the store's … Continue reading Remember the Ingredients
